New Italian
Coy'tBacks

By JAMES M. LONG

ROME R-Premier Mario Scel-
ba's month-old government had
the approval of Parliament today
to push for knockdown fight on
ratification of the European De-
tense Community Treaty.
The Premier won final parlia-
mentary vote of confidence last
night. In a stormy session, the
59O-member Chamber of Deputies
approved his program of mild
social reform at home and con-
tinued ties with the West by a
17-vote margin.
Scelba pledged to rally his back
erS quickly for approval of the
EDO pact, which would bring
West German troops into a one
uniform army with Italy, France,
Belgium, the Netherlands and
Luxembourg.
But it probably will be several
weeks before he can clear the
way through the maze of COM
plicated domestic issues confront
ing his wobbly four-party coali-
ton government to get final action
on EDO.
With the thin majority the 81
year-old Christian Democrat Pre-
mier commands, it will not be
easy to push through his domestic
program. And the fight over EDO
may be the toughest hurdle of all.
Plagued by the Communists and
fellow-traveling Socialists on the
left and the MonarchistS and neo.
Fascists of the right, Scelba man
aged to win a vote of confidence
in his policies last night 800 to
1888. The 334-member Senate gave
him a bare five-vote margin Of
approval Feb. 26.
Confirmation by the deputies
last night brought at least a tenn
porary halt to the government
crisis which has plagued Italy ever
since the June elections cut the
props from under the pro-Western,
center-of-the-road regime of Scel-
ba's longtime mentor, Christian
Democrat leader Alcide de Gas
peri.

Expert Reports Big Advance
Toward Lifelong Polio Safety

DETROIT R-Dr. Albert B.
Sabin, Cincinnati virus expert, to-
day reported big steps toward a
new kind of polio vaccine which
night give lifelong protection.
He announced finding tame"
living polio viruses which have
been used successfully in vaccine
tests on monkeys.
Although still alive, these vir-
uses are harmless cousins" of
regular polio virus, and don't cause
sicnesS. Because they are alive,
they presumably would be far
more powerful IN creating protec-
tive antibodies than killed viruses,
such as used in the Salk vaccine.
The antibodies created by living
virus could last for years even
perhaps a lifetime.
Much more work needs to be
done on this type OF vaccine, DIR.
Sabin, of the University of Cincin-
natl Medical College, told the Mich
igan Foundation for Medical and
Health Education. -
He expressed opinion there are
still some unanswered technical
questions about the vaccine de-
veloped by DR.. Jonas E. Salk of
Pittsburgh.
A main question is how effective
killed viruses are in creating anti
bodies, and how long such anti
bodies last, he said.
Another is how many thousands
or millions of killed viruses are
needed for one vaccination. If the
number is too high, it may be
impossible to supply enough virus
to vaccnate millions of children

and young adults, DR.. Sabin said.
The virus for vaccines now is
grown only in monkey kidney It's.
sue, he explained, and there is a
limit to its availability.
DR.. Salk is expected to report
new findings on just such ques-
tons at a meeting tonight in New
Orleans.
DR.. Sabin's prepared paper did
not imply that the Salk vac
cine is not safe.
He said the final answer wheth.
er any vaccine actually gives pro-
lection can come only from care
fully controlled experiments on
hundreds of thousands of children.
Such tests of the Salk vaccine are
scheduled soon, with support of
the National Foundation for Infan-
tile Paralysis. The foundation sup
ports the studies of both Salk and
Sabin.
The tame" viruses appeared
when huge numbers of dangerous
virus were being grown on kidney
tissue.
BY special methods, DR.. Sabin
and co-workers found that some
had changed or mutated-become
genetically different-so they lost
their polio punch, and these strains
we're separated and continued.
The studies must continue to
learn whether there is any chance
these viruseS could change back
again to become dangerous. Also,
search is being made to learn if
nature already has created, in
humans, any better strains of tame
virus.
