from the u. S. Department of Health, Education and Wei
fare in connection with the ALLEGATION Of poliomyelitis vac
cine:
The voluntary plan for ALLEGATION Of poliomyelitis vac
cine, under which the States and Territories will have the
responsibility for its distribution, both through commercial
and public agency channels, has gone into effect, it was an
nounced today by the Department Of Health, Education, and
Welfare.
The plan was put into effect following announcement
by the National Foundation for Infantle Paralysis that its
immediate summertime needs have been met and that IT
would not require all OF the last batch OF pollomyehts vac
cine released for use.
In making the announcement, the Department empha-
sized the voluntary nature of the plan and the key respon-
sibaity Of the States in the interstate operation of the pro
gram.
Under the voluntary plan each new batch of the vaccine
will DC. allocated among the States as it becomes available
The States will then determine what proportion OF their share
il to % to public agencies, such as local health departments,
and what amount will be distributed by the manufacturers
through normal drug channels for use by private physicians.
ALLEGATIONS to the States will be based on each States
proportion Of children in the initial priority group, excluding
children who have already been inInunized under the pro
gram of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis.
The current priority age group Of 5 through 2 was recon-.
mended by the National Advisory Committee on Poliomyei-
It's Vaccine in May. For the country as 9 whole, these children
are in the age group most susceptible to poliomyehtis.
The voluntary plan follows the proposals for equitable
distribution Of the vaccine approved by President Eisenhow-
er last MAY. It's details were developed during several months
Of close collaboration among the National Advisory Commit
tee, the Public Health Service, the Governors Health Off
GERS, manufacturers Of vaccine, representatives OF the medl-
cal and pharmaceutical profession, the drug industry, and.
other interested groups.
The Department also announced the first ALLEGATION to
the States, consisting Of 100000 ccs Of vaccine. This is the
last batch of vaccine released by the Public Health Service
after the current needs of the Foundation had been met.
The States have already been requested to notify the
Department of the proportion to be shipped to public agen-.
cies and to be released through normal drug channels. As
soon as this information is received from the States, it will
be transmitted to the manufacturers, who will make ship
ments directly into the States.
The American Medical Association has requested all ply
sicians to vaccinate only children in the age group 5 through

Out in the lake beyond the

them, mostly pickerel. just as

Back to the salt mineS-i.e.
the sophisticated life in this
scintillating center Of the free
world. It's hard to believe that
just a few days ago I was en-
sconced for q week in the
wilds Of the Canadian bush
country.
I like to toss that bush"
business OF casually at every
gathering. 1t sounds so in
triguingly rugged.
But don't let the sound of it
fool you-especially you wives
of summer fishermen who go
in for stag vacations of
''roughing it" that would be
much too tough on the little
woman"
Well. girls, I have news for
you. The ,boys-bless their
would-be independent hearts
have been pulling the wool
over your eyes all these years.
Equipped only with the nee
essary clothes for living so
close to nature, our party set
out by plane for Sault Sainte
Marie. Mich. where we ferried
the 500 River to Saulte Sainte
Marie, Ontario. There we
picked up our fishing licenses
and hoped a seaplane for the
bush country. Those bush
pilots, they tell me, are so ex-
perienced they can find their
way after dark in a blizzard
minus q radio. Happily this
one had earphones just in case.
Into the North
We few directly north for
about 125 miles with nothing
but mounds Of green trees and
lakes below US and one thin
meandering railroad. But
there was nary a road, nor a
house nor any other sign of
civilization. The lakes were so
numerous that they continue
ally scooped out the green
landscape with their reflections
for as far as the eye could
reach. At one glance from one
side Of the plane at one point
in the trip they numbered 49,
all as deserted as the forests
primeval that surrounded
them.
All, this was it! This was
the brave life Of mere mortal
pitted against nature. Of man
fishing for his own dinner. No
f1shee, no dinnee. Oh, yes?
We were headed for the
camp Of Mr.. Leo Timmins,
president Of the Chromium
Mining and Smelling Co. and
one of the noted Canadian
Timmins family that's up to
its ears in ore. His cousin
Jules Is the fellow who first
brought the news Of the huge

set about financing and open
ing it UP. Mr.. Humphrey had

rougher territory when we
took an overnight portage trip
to a speckled trout lake Is
miles away. picking en- route
what blueberries the native
brown bears had overlooked.
But we didn't have to carry a
canoe, a knapsack, nor even a
paddle over a portage. Those
muscled woodsmen who can
walk on narrow rocky paths
through the brush with over
400 pounds each on their
backs did it all.
This second camp was prim-
tive, yes, but the guides made
the beds. cooked the meals
and served them.
All I can say is, If this is
roughing it. I'm a child Of
nature.

Just as the Big Four For
eign Ministers, preparing for
the opening of their Geneva
conference last week, were
ready to shove the Mi d d l e
East problem into a corner,
relegating Israeli-Arab con-
flicts to a peripheral role, Sec
retary-General Dag Hammar-
skiold here shifted the spot
light. BY C allin g Maj. Gen.
Burns, the UN's P ale S tin e
truce chief, to come here for
consultation, Mr.. Hammar-
skiold placed the Middle East
problems into full glare. 1t
was a masterful stroke in an
effort to highlight the ia C t
that the one place in the world
where a Warlike e situation
truly endangerS peace and Sc
curity is the Near East.
1t is no secret among observ-
ers here that fears concern
ing the imminence of war in
the area entail Israel, rather
than the Arab States. Every
one knows that Egypt, despite
the fact that it has already
begun to receive some of the
armaments from the Com
munist bloc, is not yet ready
to start a war. But diplomats
here are not so sure about Is
rael. They see many signs of
mounting sanction for the pre-
ventive war idea in I sr a el
They see sufficient provoca-
ton for such an attitude. They
wonder how long Prime Min
lister Moshe Sharett can hold
the Israeli people and Israeli
army in check in the face OF
Egypt's growing military
strength, Syria's increasing
willingness to play c afro S
game, and the Vests contin'
uing failure to give Isr a e
either a security guarantee OF
arms. They wonderland they
hope that the UN's spotlight
on the Middle East may help
awaken the West.
The real choice in the Mid
die East, in the view of UN
officials, is not between wal
and peace; it is between wal
and a tenuous continuation o1
the armistice agreements
drawn in 1949 and stretched
dangerously so many times

possible, keep those thin ar

miStice lines from breaking.
Dab Hammarskjold's prestige
as a quiet wonderman in the
field of diplomacy cannot af-
ford to let that thread snap
into open warfare.
The UN has failed in it's eff
forts to metamorphose the Is
rael-Arab armistice a agree =
ments into peace pacts. Gen.
Burns said as m u C h in a
speech at Tel Aviv before he
left for UN headquarters.
That statement of Burns re-
ceived attention. But he made
another a tiOn which
seems to have been p a S S e d
over, largely. Gen. Burns said
also: eff a pl e b i S cit t e were
taken both in Israel and in the
Arab countries, in regard to
the various problems, a ma
jority would vote for the sta
tus quo and for the prevention
of a situation that leads to the
danger of war;"
These words of Burns are
important-as an indictment
of the Arab | e a d e r S h p S .
Everyone knows that the Is
raeli people want peace. But
when the UN's most respons-
ible man in the field asserts
that the Arab people too want
peace m plyin G that only
their leaders want war-he is
stating the kind of truth the
Arab militarists would rather
not hear.
Hammarskjold would pre-
fer conversations to debates,
If a Security council meeting
on the Middle East issue is
summoned, such a e S o n
would be forced on Hammar'
skiold. Hammarskjold is said
to agree with a formula stat
ed the other day by India's
Krishna Menon who pointed
out that conversations may
lead to agreements, debates
lead only to airing of differ
ences." Burns was brought
her to keep the conversation:
going, in an e effort to tall
some sense into FawZi, to re
lay UN insistence on immedi
ate attention to the Middle
East at the Geneva confer
ence of the Big Four Minis
ters-and, incidentally, in th'
hope that Israel might keel

When the Wright brothers
flew their first a eropla n e
down at Kitty Hawk, North
Carolina, a paragraph appear
ed in few newspapers. That's
all.
I haven't seen much more
than that about the visit to
this country of DR.. H. Tabor,
of the National Physical Lab
oratory of Israel. DR.. Tabor is
in Phoenix this week, to par
ticipate, in a symposium on
Apple d Solar Energy Re-
search.
DR.. Tabor has developed a
solar engine which has COM
mercial possibilities. Scientists
in many parts of the world
have been Workin G on the
problem of getting som e of
the energy which the sun with
a munificient h a n d scatters
all about us. In America, sci
entists have already develop
ed the means by which houses
may be moderately warmed,
and down in Americus, Geor-
gia, the Bell Telephone peo-
pie are even experimenting
with a telephone run by sun
power.
The Tabor engine is said to
go beyond all this. 1t is rated
some 20 percent more effic-
lent than any other solar en-
gine thus far developed. The
Tabor e ngine will soon be
tried out for the first time in
dustrially to generate steam
power to work the Dead Sea
chemical plant.
In the midst of the great ex-
citement in Israel about the
finding of oil, the members of
the Knesset turned out to wit
ness a demonstration of the
solar engine. Ben G urion
wanted to know if the engine
could be used to distill sea wa
ter to make it available for
irrigation. He was told that it
could do this but at a prohlb-
tive cost. Ben Gurion was ex-
cited when he was told that it
was commercially feasible to
refrigerate homes with the
engine. 1--WE could cool all the
homes in the Negev," exclaim-
ed Ben Gurion.
When Theodore HerZl wrote
Das Juenstaat, he gave the
manuscript to a friend to read.
The friends finished it and be-
gan crying.
Herzl tn ought that the
friend had been touched by
the vision of the salvation of

his people. But the fri e n d
soon confided to Herzi that he
was weeping on another ac-
count. The manuscript con-
vinced him that Herzl had lost
his mind and he was weeping
at the tragedy that had befal-
len a fine man.
If Herzl suffered m e n a
alteration in b ecom ing a
Zionist, millions of o t h er S
shared this alteration wi t h
him. But HerZl did have a rich,
extravagant phantasy that
sometimes seemed to over
shoot the mark. Thus HerZl
predicted not only the Jewish
State, but also that a refriger-
alton industry would become
one of the major activities and
that Israel would show the
world how to make the hot
lands habitable.
HerzPs prediction may be
coming true. The solar engine
may refrigerate the Negev-I
and the Arab states as well.
Let us hope it will refriger-
ate their tempers as well as
their skins.
Levi Eshkoll, Israel Minis
eer of Finance, after the dem
onStration of the T a bor en-
CINE, remarked: "JuSt when !
we have discovered oil, they |
tell us we don't need it,"
The oil r serves of the
world are limited. Double the
amount of oil may be found.
1t still will be inadequate. But |
the suns energy is illimitable.
It's power potential have been
know basically from time i'm
mortal. Everyone has at one
time or another tried the trick |
of focusing the hot sun by
means of a mirror so that it |
might burn paper. The trou-
BILE, as I gather it, has been
that we have not known how
to store the heat. You may ga
ther your heat with your lens,
but it flows away as quickly
as it is attracted. You cannot
put it in a container and store
it away as you can oil.
But the solar engine does
that trick. An interesting
question has been raised in Is
rael. The pious Jew is forbid
den to light a fire on the Sab
bath, but what about this
Solar engine? You will just
put it in your window and it
will be lighting fires of itself.
There will be no excuse then
for not keeping the Sabbath in
the most pious way.
