The Week in Religion
By RELIGIOUS News Service


Religious leaders have been
stepping up their efforts to get
Americans Of different faiths to
work together toward common
goals.
In Washington, Catholic Arch
bishop Patrick A. O'Boyle ap-
pealed to ProtestantS, Jews and
others who believe in God to put
aside their differences and join
Catholics In q crusade of prayer
and protest against Communist
persecution Of religion.
/ He proposed that all faiths
support a demand for a formal
| United Nations investigation. He
charged that the Communists
were making a "diabolical at
tempt to exterminate all reli-
gion."
! Archbishop O,Boyle made his
! plea at a solemn mass Of repara-
ton In st. Matthew's Cathedral
as Catholic churches throughout
/ the country held special services
Of intercession for their perse-
,cuted brethren.

Appealing directly for Profess
tant cooperation, Archbishop
OBoyle said:
This is not the occasion to
enter into the issues which have
unfortunately caused incidents
of religious intolerance in our
land.
with half the world in flames.
should we argue over precedence
| in putting out the fire? Or
should we rather all walk humbly
before God, admitting our sins
and pleading that the Scourge of
communism be- lifted from the
earth?"
The prelate declared that
Protestants. Jews and Moslems
had. shared with Catholic and
Orthodox churches the terrible
persecution Of the. Kremlin. He
related the case of a Lutheran
pastor in Latvia. who was ban
ished to Siberia for life because
he insisted on holding Christ
mas service in 1947.
Missions Closed in China.
Archbishop O'Boyle said or
ganized Protestant religious life
had been practically wiped out
in Latvia, EStonia and Lithu-
ania."
1T survives only with the
greatest difficulty in East Ger
many and CzechoSlovakia," he
said. Protestant missions and
works of mercy in China have
been closed. The record is clear
ANY believer in God. any per-
son whose conscience rebels
against the great injustices of
communism. is considered an
enemy Of the regime"
The archbishop said q u. N.
investigation might do much to
overcome the neutralism into
which millions of the worlds
citizens have retreated in the
battle between communism and
the West. "
Against such indifference. the
voice of, protest for the right
of faith will have a powerful
effect" he predicted.
THE power of arms Is great.
and we? do not underestimate
the tragedy of atomic warfare.
But let us not underestimate
the power of the spirit and the
greatness of truth"
Canadian Churches Cooperate.
In Toronto. Canada, Profess
tant and Catholic churchmen
urged better understanding be-
tween members of the two COM
munions.
Their appeal was made at the
inaugural meeting of the AL
lance Canadienne, an organiza-
ton seeking to promote amity

Silcox. to set an example in
international relations by weld
ing a united country out of two
district cultures.
Gains Made In South America.
Another pronouncement on
interchurch relations, this time
in South America, came from
a Lutheran leader in New York.
DR.. Stewart w. Herman,
executive secretary Of the Ma
tional Lutheran Councils Divi-
sion of Lutheran Cooperation in
Latin America. said that Prot
estant work in Latin American
countries. especially in Colom-
bia. was becoming somewhat
easier"
He made the statement after
returning from a four week trip
to Colombia. Venezuela and
M6AIcO.
DR.. Herman said. "there Is
good hope that under the new
regime in Colombia an era Of
progress and liberal policy in all
matters is being initiated"
The. Lutheran leader declared
that while the. Catholic church
was becoming increasingly SEN
sitive to the growth of Protes-
tantism in Latin America. 1t was
turning away from forms Of
violent persecution" and was
trying to regain popular sup
port by meeting the real spiritual
needs ofe the people,"

Woody island News

On Monday, James A Schmidt. treasurer of the Woody Island Recreation Club, sent a check for $200 to the Alaska Crippled Children Asso ] citation. after the donation was voted for unanimously by the members.
 Woody has played host to numerous visitors from town and the Naval Base. During this lovely weather it is hard to find a place on the island that insures solitude, but as the old saying goes, The more the merrier;"
 The Woodites are taking full advantage of the islands senic beauty. The rock formation called the Nature Bridge, found on the cart side of Woody, and the picnic grounds at the old sawmill are esbecially popular with the islanders.
 Lower Lake, better known as Ice Box Lake, on West Woody is providing swimming for the younger set.
 The fishing has been good. Fresh halibut, sea bass, and dellys are the main dish on many table. Holly Holroyd bought a new Mercury Mark 20 outboard motor and the rest of the fisherm en are slightly green. One fisherman reported catching 15 sea bass in a very short time.

New Polio Vaccine
Using Tame Living
Viruses Reported

DETROIT, Mar. 1l.-Dr. AL
bert B. Sabin, Cincinnati virus
expert. today reported big steps
toward a new kind of polio vac
cine which might give lifelong
protection.
/ He announced finding tame"
living polio viruses which have
been used successfully in vaccine
tests on monkeys.
Although still alive, these
viruses are harmless cousins"
of regular polio virus and don't
cause sickness. Because they
are alive they presumably would
be far more powerful in creating
protective antibodies than killed
viruses, such as used in the Salk
vaccine. The antibodies created
by living viruses could last for
years. even perhaps a lifetime.
Sees Much Work Ahead.
Much more work needs to be
done on this type of vaccine.
DR.. Sabin. of the University of
Cincinnati Medical College, told
the Michigan Foundation for
Medical and Health Education.
DR.. Sabin expressed opinion
there are still some unanswered
technical questions about the
vaccine developed by DIR. Jonas
E. Salk of Pittsburgh.
One question is how many
thousands or millions of killed
viruses are needed for one vac
cination. If the number is too
high, it may be impossible to
supply enough virus to vac
cinate millions of children and
young adults, DR.. Sabin said.
No Safety Implications.
DR.. Sabin's prepared paper did
not imply that the Salk vaccine
is not safe.
he SAID the nnal answer
whether any vaccine actually
gives protection can come only
from carefully-controlled expert
mentS on hundreds of thousands
of children. Such tests of the
Salk vaccine are scheduled soon,
with support of the National
Foundation for Infantile Paral-
ysis. The foundation supports
the studies of both Drs. Salk and
Sabin.
DR.. Sabin said huge field tests
Of polio vaccines on humans can't
be done often, and basic facts
about the potency, stability and
dosages of any vaccine are need
ed first.

Young Prospector
Seeks Titanium Ore
In Chesapeake Bay

A 23-year-old Washington
prospector hopes to hit pay dirt
this spring beneath the waters
Of Chesapeake Bay.
Sidney S. Alderman, jr., Of
p210l Connecticut avenue NV,
viii go looking for ore used for
itanium. a light, durable and
rust-proof metal critically needed
for supersonic jet airplanes.
The Army wants it, too, for
bayonets. rifles and artillery
shells. So does the Navy, to
build ships that won't need
paint.
Like most prospectors, Mr..
Alderman is reticent about his
plans.
But I'm enthusiastic enough
to invest my money in it," he
said. Il think We'll find some
thing
He is keeping most of his plans
a secret because he doesn't want
trouble with claim jumpers. For
that reason he will not say
which parts Of the Bay look the
most promising to him.
To Prospect BY Boat.
His prospecting will be done
by boat, and will get under way
about the first of next month.
He has a go-ahead from the
Maryland Board of Public Works.
In asking for permission to
prospect, he told the State:
my sampling work this spring
and summer will be a general
reconnaissance and will cover all
areas of the bay open to leas-
ing"
He will seek particularly il
menite. the ore of titanium, and
zircon, semiprecious stone re-
sembling the diamond and often
found with deposits of ilmenite.
nmenite has been mined sue
cessfully for several years off
the coast of Florida. Prospecting
has been widespread recently
because of increased defense de-
mandS. Most titanium now is
imported from Canada.
Will Shun Oyster Beds.
He said he has detailed charts
showing the location of all sur
veyed oyster beds, clam beds and
grabbing bottoms. and will stay
clear of them.
MIR. Alderman has been pros
pecting for five years. He spent
those years. following his gradu-
alton with a degree in geology
from the Massachusetts, Institute
Of Technology. with a mining
company in the West. looking
for lead. zinc and copper.
He has been in Washington six
months, surveying the possible
ties of East, Coast mineral de-
poSits.
DR.. Joseph T. Singewald. jr.,
director of Maryland's depart
ment of geology, mines and wa
ter resources. approved the AL
derman project.
He said he is skeptical about
reports that major deposits of IT,
tanium ore lie under the Chesa-
peake. but he conceded the ore
may be there.

Vaccine 10 Be Given
Thorough Checks,
County Aides Told

The director of hospital serv-
ices for the National Foundation
for Infantile Paralysis yesterday
assured Montgomery County
principals, doctors and health Of
ficers that no trial polio vaccine
shots would be given until they
had passed all safety tests.
DR.. Herbert T. Wagner gave
the assurances in briefings with
the elementary school principals,
the County Medical Society and
the Health Department staff.
Even II it means not one shot
OF the vaccine is to be given this
summer, none is going to be dis
tributed by the Foundation until
it passes all the safety tests"
All Vaccine Tested.
DR.. Wagner added that all
vaccine patches are being tested
In the manufacturers labora-
tories, in the laboratory of DR.
Jonas E. Salk who developed the
vaccine. and at the Biologics
Laboratory of the National In
stitutes of Health in Bethesda.
The problem now. DR.. Wagner
said, is keeping up production of
the vaccine to meet schedules of
the trial tests in which up to a
million children in the first, Sec
ond and third grades across the
Nation will participate.
DR.. Wagner reminded the doc
tots and principals that no one
was to be pressured into taking
part in the trial tests.
The parents themselves must
sign a paper requesting their
child be inoculated. The request
also covers the taking of blood
samples from about 2 per cent
Of the children.
Antibodies Checked.
The blood samples are needed
to compare the antibody level
before and after the three inocu-
lations are made. The anti
bodies protect the child against
the polio virus.
The medical director of the
foundation, DR.. Hart E. Van
Ripper. last night issued a state
ment in New York that the Salk
vaccine had been proved safe
in tests and that all test in
formation is in the hands of
the State health officers, &C
cording to the Associated Press.
DR.. Van Riper's statement fol-
lowed announcement that med
ical societies In Houston and
Dallas. Tex, had baked at the
use Of the vaccine there because
they said they lacked enough
scientific information to decide
whether the vaccine is safe.
Houston was the scene two
years ago of a mass test Of the
effectiveness of gamma globulin
as a protection against polio.

lin.
| Before his announcement was
made, however. the findings of
DR.. David Bodian of Johns Hop
kins University and DR.. Dorothy

the discovery. They learned that,
in the early stages of polio. the
virus does circulates in the blood.
ut would appear that paralytic
polio should be one of most
readily preventable diseases" DR..
Bod1an said in his announce
ment.
After walking down many a
blind alley for half century
science now appeared close to
controlling the disease.
And DR.. Jonas E. Salk already
was busy in his laboratories in
the yellow bricked Pittsburgh
Municipal Contagious Disease
Hospital overlooking the univer-
sity'S Cathedral of Learning. /"
Experimenting with rhesus
monkeys. he had developed a
vaccine that protected them
against injections of polio virus
Finally he was ready to try it
on human beings. The parents
OF young polio victims at the
nearby D. T. Watson Home for
Crippled Children offered their
children to test the vaccine.
Later nonpolio victims at the
home participated. All showed
evidence Of having all three
types Of polio antibodies in the
blood after the shots.
DR.. Salk's own three sons re-
ceived the test injections. His
first report last March covered
161 persons inoculated without
miShap. w..
BY last fall. some TOO had re-
ceived the vaccine in the Pitts
burgh area. All showed anti
bodies in the blood after the
injections that had not been
present earlier.
DR.. Salk grew his virus in test
tubes at the university. A barely
visible amount of monkey kid
ney tissue is put in the tube with
necessary reagents and kept
warm for about a week.
PrOpagates in Tube.
Then one type of polio virus
is put in each tube for propa-
cation with the mixing of the
three to come as q last step.
Several days later pure virus
suspended in water is ready for
harvest and is separated from
the original mixture.
The virus is then KILLED" by
exposure to formaldehyde rob-
bling it of disease-spreading
power yet leaving it just strong
enough to stimulate production
Of antibodies when injected into
the blood stream.
Some 1880 children in Mont

participate In the vaccine
tests with the first shots slated
for March 20 at the Rockville

Showdown Near
0ver$7 Million Credit
On Virginia Taxes
~ the Assoeiofed Press

RICHMOND, Va. Mar. IL
The stage was set as the Assem-
bly, convened today for the final
three-day showdown on the mat
ter that has given this Legisla-
ture more concern than any other
the disposition of the 81 million
earmarked for tax credits in the
Battle budget.
Last night the Senate Finance
Committee again took the view
this money should go to the
taxpayers next fall, under the
provisions Of the Byrd tax credit
law. It reported the appropria-
tons bill minus the Boothe
amendment added on the floor
of the House.
The Boothe amendment would
have appropriated the 81 million
at this session for schools. hos
pitfalls, health and armorieS.
Reversed House Before.
Once before the Senate COM
mittee reversed an action of the
House on this issue when it
killed the House-passed Carter
bill Ito suspend the Byrd law
for two years and to grab the
81 million for appropriation now.
But while a Senate House
fight over the final form of the
appropriations bill was brewing,
the vehicle for possible compro-
mise also was reported favorably
last night by the Finance Com
mittee. It is the Pendleton bill
to alter the Byrd law in the flu
ture, which passed the House
last week with administration
backing.
The Pendleton bill would make
future tax credits smaller and
less likely.
Sets Higher Level.
General fund SURPRISES over
estimates would have to reach 10
per cent instead of the present
S per cent before tax credits
would be made. The first S per
cent of the surplus would be kept
by the State.
However, this bill-as now
written-would not become effec-
tive until next year, so the 81
million would not be affected.
Senator Harry F. Byrd, jr., said
yesterday he had no opposition
to the Pendleton bin, but would
fight vigorously and unrelent-
ingly" the Boothe amendment.
Another possible compromise
one Senator Byrd is virtually GER
tain to oppose-would be to make
the Pendleton bill effective now.
This would divide the 81 million,
with $3.8 million going for tax
credits and $50 million for ap-
preparations.
