For the past 80 years a Da.
mascus man has been "the great
white father" to Washington's
Chinese population. Many Chin.
ese call Henry S. Heine my
brother" One Chinese restaurant
owner uses very non-oriental
language: Everyone is crazy
about Mr. Heine"
The relationship began back
in the 20's when Mr.. Heine, then
real estate man, befriended a
Chinese, Chan Kai. "Once you
do favor for a Chinese he's al
ways your friend" says Mr.
Heine.
MIR. Heirie often attends af-
fairs of secret Chinese tongs. He
goes to Chinese New Year par
ties. He speaks few words of
Chinese and can eat with chop
sticks. The Heine's have lived in
Damascus about a year and a
half.
Shortly after Mr.. Heine had
rented Chan Kai restaurant, the
Chinese got in trouble with the
immigration authorities. Mr..
Heine Strengthened out the trou.
BILE. Soon all the Chinese were
coming to him with their prob
lens.
When the bloody war between
rival tongs reached Washington
and one Chinese was killed, Mr.
Heine interceded and settled the
war.
Mr.. Heine remembers, when
was boy everyone was afraid
of Chinese people. But I was out
ragged at how they were treated
and decided to help all who de.
served help"
And help them he did. He once
socked an automobile dealer for
trying to gyp a Chinese on a
secondhand car. He saved one
Chinese man $1,000 on a water
bill by proving that the meter
was broken.
Mr.. Heine was longtime EN-.
ployee of Washington's Depart.
ment of Vehicles and Traffic. ANY
Chinese applying for a drivers
license was referred to him. Dur.
ing the war he worked on a driv.
ers' QUESTIONABLE printed in Chin
ese.
Mr.. Heine has been frequently
awakened in the wee hours and
asked to post bond for one of his
Chinese friends.
AS much as the Chinese like
him. Mr.. Heine likes them. He
likes their food. "They eat lot
of dried fish and also octopus"
He likes the heavy spices, espe.
cially ginger and garlic, used on
Chinese foods. Mrs. Heine shys
away from Chinese food.
During the war the HeineS
were front-row guests at a Chin.
ese play put on to raise money
for the defense Of China. They
were the only Americans pres.
ent.
Mr.. Heine has seen the seam.
ier side of Chinese life, too.

Polio Vaccine
Waiting List
Set up Here

The Montgomery County
Health Department is establish.
ing a waiting list for anyone de-
string polio immunization for
children one through IS years
old on a basis to be limited by the
amount of vaccine available, in
order to help relieve the current
shortage of vaccine.
This policy will go into effect
Immediately and the vaccine will
be administered by appointment
in Health Department clinics.
Maryland's program differs
somewhat from that of surround
ing states and health Jurisdictions
in that the State of Maryland pur'
chases 30 percent of the vaccine
allocated, while 20 percent of the
allocated vaccine is bought by pri
vate physicians.
The current demand for immu
nization in Montgomery County
far exceeds the supply of vaccine
available to both the private ply
sician and the health department
To date, 39,240 doses of vaccine
have been released to private
physicians and 5,508 doses to the
health department. Health De
partment records indicate that ap
proximately 12,206 children re
ceived immunizations under the

Tax Receipts
Average SAT-
By the Associated Press

Federal tax collections aver
aged a record SAT- for every
person in the country during the
fiscal year ended last June 80,
the Internal Revenue Service
said today.
This was an increase of about
S46 over the individual average
in the previous year.
1t also was $11 greater than
the peak average reached in the
1853 fiscal year, the service said.
The 1856 fiscal average was far
above the 1913 in fiscal 1945 at
the end Of World War II.
The report covers a 90-year
period during which the low
point in average individual COL
lections was in 1885. That year,
the revenue service said, the per
capita figure was $1.98 on tax
collections totaling SIP, 421 900.
The 1856 average was based
on record collections of $75,112,-
$4,000 from a population total
ing 168,091, 900.
Although the average paid was
the highest in history, the cost
Of collecting each 500 of tax in
the last fiscal year declined
about 2 cents-from ~ cents to
40 cents.
