ly seeking more.
Since polio does not reach its
peak until summer or early fall,
there is still time - in most areas
- to postpone the third and final
shot for a month or two. This, the
Public Health Service advises.
1t would seem that the polio
vaccine program has suffered
from a many-splendored num-
Der of supply difficulties. Not
only has the supply been short,
but some of it was contaminated,
and now it is short for the sec
ond year in succession. This is a
little disturbing to those who r
convinced that the polio vaccine
is the greatest achievement in
the fight against polio yet de-
veloped.
Tests last year seemed to prove
that the polio vaccine was about
Seventy-five per cent effective.
And, while there are some who
still do not favor using in on their
children, the vast majority seems
30 want the vaccine, and this is
why it is in short supply today.

EDITORIALLY
ADLAI STEVENSON

Many supporters of Adlal Stew
enson must now be wryly recall
ing that famous line written by
Robert Burns, the Bard of Ayr
shire: '@The best laid schemes o
mice and men gang aft a-gley.'
For, while recent political de-
velopments cannot be said to have
destroyed MIR. Stevenson's chances
for the Democratic candidacy,
there is no doubt that the great
advantage he enjoyed a short time
ago has rapidly evaporated.
AS of March 18th, most politi-
cal writers will tell you, Mr.. Ste
venson led the other Democratic
poSSibles by a country mile. Then,
on the 18th, came the New Hamp-
shire primary and the first serious
reversal. Mr.. Stevenson, it is true,
did not personally campaign in
New Hampshire, but a strong
slate of delegates, made up of
leading local figures, was pledged
to him 1t wa expected that this
slate would make an excellent
showing, even in the face of Sena-
tor Kefauver's personal campaign
ing. But the pro-Stevenson vote
was small - much smaller than
was anticipated.
The Minnesota primary follow
ed - and brought with it the
deluge. Here MIR. Stevenson had
campaigned vigorously. He had
the full backing of the state or
ganization and the Democratic
leaders. The Kefauver campaign,
by contrast, seemed poorly or
ganized and even amateurish. It
was felt that Mr.. Stevenson
should win by a wide margin -
two 10 one or better. The result
was a grade-A upset and a stun
ming victory for the Senator from
Tennessee. After Minnesota, MI.
Stevenson's political star reached
its lowest point so far. Senator

the most part, want none of Sen
ator Kefauver. But they are not

DEFEATING THE
STAIN MYTH

1t appears that the No. ! queS-
ton about the current effort in
Russia to deflate the memory OF
Joseph Stain is whether Nikita
KhruShchev can survive this re-
education program.
There seems to be little doubt
that KhrlShchev, with the sup
port OF the Army, is the major
force behind the re-education
campaign. He is reported to have
told Russians, in secret meetings,
as long as a month ago, that Sta
lin was a laundering murderer.
The sudden broadside against
Joseph Stain is certain 10 arouse
questions, some opposition, and
some confusion inside Russia. Just
how much confusion this reedu-
cation campaign will cause, and
how successfully Khrushchev can
put it over at this late date, is
a highly important question. In
Russia, it is often true that if a
campaign such as this fails, the
m~otivator, or motivatorS, are re-
moved from the scene, but per-
manently. Therefore, it seems that
KhruShchev is actually stalking his
life on this campaign to burst the
bubble surrounding Stains men,
DRY.
1t would also seem that Marshal
and Defense Minister
Georgi Zhukov are in on the
present campaign.
AS far as the United States is
concerned, its interests lie in sue
cess for the current campaign. If
the Russians are awakened to the
truth and facts about Stain, it
may be possible that in later years
hey will be fed more and more
about the United States,
democracy and wartime and post
var agreements between the Unit
ID States and the USSR.
II is believed that Georgi NAL
deposed Premier, and one
ime Secretary to Stain, was the
main obstacle to such a campaign
everal years ago. Whether NAL
.nkov a cause trouble at this
ime, OF whether he would have
.nough backing to succeed if he
we're inclined to do so, are two
interesting questions in diplomatic
these days.
But, as far as the United States
S concerned, the latest develop
nent is an encouraging one, and
S another indication that a new
ook is actually in being in the

WHERE BALL PLAYERS
COME FROM

If you have ever wondered
where major league baseball play
erS come from, a recent tabula-
ton sheds some light on the SUBJ
ject. The tabulation shows today's
baseball stars are being drawn
increasingly from the metropoli-
tan areas.
That is a different story from
conditions which held true a gen.
Grafton ago. In the old days, most
of the major league stars were
players who got their start on the
sandlots. or from the small towns
of the country.
Probably the best player of all
time, Ty Cobb, came from the
town of Narrows, Georgia. Other
great stars like Hornsby, Speaker,
MatthewSon, Johnson, Sisler and
many others, also came from
small towns.
Today, however, the industrial
areas. where the population ratio
is high, produces a lions share of
our baseball stars. BY states, Cali
fornia leads all others in supply
lnS AC6Q4d1S W 1lldJO1
Pennsylvania is next, New York
Illinois fourth, Missouri
fifth. Michigan sixth, North Caro-
lima seventh. Texas eighth, Ohio

Other states supplying a large
number of major leaguers are
Alabama, Arkansas, Tennessee,
Carolina, Wisconsin, Massa-
,husetts, Virginia, Georgia, Lou
Washington, Indiana, Mis-
sisSippi, Connecticut, and Iowa.
Six states currently have no
sons on any of the sixteen
major league teams. They are:
Wyoming, Utah, South Dakota,
New Mexico, Nevada, North Da-
1ota and Colorado.

en- national publicity. 1t stated
that it took -four years to train a
sighted instructor in the technique
of handling dogs and the blind.
1t is also a fact that only a
limited percentage of dogs receiv-
ed can pass the high requirements
and tests necessary to make them
ideal companions for the blind.
One of the largest of these or
carnations, Seeing Eye, Incorpor-
ated, of Morristown, New Jersey,
trains many of its dogs.
Over the years, it has been
found that German Shepherds are
best suited to this work, although
other dogs are used by other n
CARNATIONS, and even by the nom
profit organization at MorriStown,
if they are given to the organiza-
ton Or received from other sour
ceS. Often a person who has gone
blind and who owned a pet before
that time, will prefer to keep his
own dog as his guide, if possible.
On the average, a dog must
spend several months with his
blind master, at training school,
before the two are slapted to
each other. The dog will eventu-
ally learn 10 carry its master
along the street in heavily con-
geSted areas and enable his mas
ter to cary on business or social
activities as nearly normally as
possible.
We mention this work because
there are many who, as yet, do
not know of it and who might
like to help organizations which
train these dogs. Breeders, es-
pecially breeders of German
other Shepherds, box
erS or Labrador r~etrievers, are
to give a dog a year, or
more if possible, to one or more
these organizations.
If any reader wishes to contrib
ute either a dog, or money, to
.hese organizations, which do such
good work, then this editorial
will have been more than justi-
led.

likely to want Mr.. Stevenson
either unless by convention time
he has demonstrated a real up
surge in public following and bal
lot support. Thus the stage could
be set for the nomination of a
comparative dark horse. Cover
nor Harriman's name is most Of

So, to a lesser extent, is that of
Ohio's extremely popular Cover

On the Republican side the in
terest has naturally centered on
vice-preSidential possibilities -
Mr.. Eisenhower, of course, will
face no contest for the top spot.
Mr.. Nixon seems about as certain
a choice as anyone can be in the
world of politics. His write-in vote
in New Hampshire was remark
ably large. The really big Nixon
boost, however, came at the White
House press conference of March
18th, when the President said:
81 would be happy to be on any
political ticket in which / was a
candidate with him" This is re-
garded as about as strong and
uneQuivocal an endorsement as the
is in a position to give.
Going past the primaries, what

the final shot in the polio vaccine
series for so many children, be
