Quote

President Eisenhower, in
an informal address to the
graduating class of The Cita-
del: To-day a man to do his
duty in the military services
must study first of all hu-
mainly, what makes humans
tick. Not only as regards
your own companies, to be
for them the leader and the
model, but since you must
be one of the principal apos-
ties of peace, you must try
to understand other people.
You must try to understand
the heart of America and
how to translate that heart
to other peoples"

where some children received
the vaccine while others re-
ceived dummy shots, with only

In other areas, only children
in the second grades got the
vaccine, while first and third

the tests where dummy shots
were used was better gauge,
because conditions were more
nearly identical between vac
cinated and unvaccinated chill

The vaccine varied in its
power to protect against the
three different types of polio
virus which can cause human
paralysis. In dummy-shot areas,
it was SO per cent effective
