dramatic April IL announcement "It Works"

all scheduled for vaccinations that didn't come OF

Lack of planning here in the Flathead showed
with there not being money available for syringes
and auxiliary material to administer the vaccine.
We were not pleased that the county health Of
ficer contacted the Kalispell Chamber of Commerce
on this particular shortage and just newspaper
was designated to handle the campaign. We would
have preferred that the county health officer had
asked countrywide organizations such the home
demonstration council or the new health council. We
like to help too.
Anyway the people of the Flathead who are
generous, gave again. We have not seen where an
other county had drive for Syringes.
There are no apologies up here This area sup
ported the March of Dimes in outstanding fashion,
and the syringe drive well. In addition a number
of us mailed checks directly to the county health

More on SQIk Vaccine

Now the nations magazines, especially those
that interpret news, coming forth with fine
ticles on Salk vaccine and its effectiveness.
u S. News and World Report this week has
an excellent article on the vaccine.
Here are few questions and answers from the
magazine:
Just how effective Is the polio vaccine?
Very effective against the most Gripping types
of polio. Not quite as effective against the less
crippng types. Not effective against types that do
not cripple.
How long will this immunity last?
For "an indefinite period, perhaps years." says
DR.. Salk Whether booster shots will be needed
after few years, however is not yet certain.
What 10 the best age for polio vaccination?
Ideally inoculations might be given when
child is only to months DID,
How about adults? Should they get shots too,
when vaccine 10 available?
Probably not over the age of 20. Polio does not
strike in later years it hit Franklin D. Roosevelt
at 80 - but it is very among adults -. There
are some recommendations to give pregnant
mothers the same priority young children.
Is the vaccine really safe?
Yes, according to DR.. Francis. He calls it Sin
crediby safe" Some NEGOTIATIONS against disease
cause serious reactions. But the vaccine has pro-
duced major bad effects, and even the number
of minor side reactions has been negligible"
10 there any danger Of catching polio from the
vaccinef
Absolutely none.
When is the best time Of year to be inoculated?
Sometime before the onset of the polio season.
The information continues with the interesting
fact that water is the base for this vaccine and not
alcohol. Hence there is not the singing sensation
when the needle punches into the upper arm.
The story of the Salk vaccine is certainly
reaching homes in the Flathead. Over 80 per cent

Now We Haze Zoninq

Columbia Falls city council adopted zoning
ordinance Tuesday evening, and in 80 days it be-
comes law.
The long, detailed document is the product of
years work by group of interested, representa-
tive citizens of the community, the zoning commits
sion.
There provisions in the ordinance with
which of us do not agree. On the otherhand
at its public hearings the zoning commission chang
ed and modified its regulations as citizens express
ed likes and dislikes.
For example we question the wisdom of zon-
ing out all service stations in the central bus
mess district. Such regulation is certainly advanc
ed thinking for city that lacks sewers, sidewalks
and adequate Streets and furthermore has tooth
less effect with lots in the business dist
riot
On the otherhand, property owners of this
community who did not want service stations in the
business section had definite ideas this subject
The zoning regulation expresses the wish of the
majority interested in the topic.
The city council gave the coming commission a
vote of thanks Tuesday evening. 1t well deserv-
ed. Commission members were George Ridpath
PRESIDENT Tom Smith, secretary; James Clark Ar
chic Corrigeux, o. S. Kronkright Joe Monegan
Bill Schmidt and L. A. Boots Schoenberg.
We should think of the new zoning regulation
as protection and not restriction.
In other words build an $4,000
house in the residential districts and not have the
prospect of garage post plant erected across
the street. Residences can be erected almost any
where in the community, but businesses are limited
to Nucleus avenue highway 40 and few othe
tracts.
Zoning encourages to build cottage, ane
not one-room cabin. He is asked to allow at leas
20 feet for lawn in front of the house, and leave
least five feet of open space between his house
lot line on the side.
In the built-up residential areas, there no long
is the prospect of two-story apartment nous
rising next door to the man with ranch-style
modern house. Picture windows can still look GU
at pictures.
1t is certainly progress to have zoning Mex
problem is to ntelligently enforce the regulations
Each of us have some responsibility to see that thi
is achieved. Nj

ACM Report Tells
Of FIufheud Plant

Annual report of the Anaconda
Copper Mining Co. for 1854 has
an aerial color picture OF the Flat

to permit the continuation of con-

months.
ut has been decided to install
additional pots, for which building
space and electrical capacity were
available, thereby increasing esti-
