Owners are forc ed to pay the tax from other in- iffft Ntw Polio Casts Exceed 5-Year Weekly Average WASHINGTON UP) There were 154 new cases of oollo dur ing the week ending Dec. 24, the public health service reports. The live-year average for that weeK is su cases, the agency said. During the Drecediniz week, end ing Dec. 17, there were 243 new cases.

S. To Find Husband, Believed Captive LONDON. Jan. 3. UP) The wife of an American architect who disappeared while traveling in Communist eastern Europe last August declared Friday he is being "held incommunicado" somewhere behind the Iron Cur tain. She pleaded for stronger U.S. efforts to find out what had hap pened to the man, Hermann H. Field, saying that four months was a loiig time for "me and his two small children to be anx iously awaiting news of him." The wife, Mrs. Kate Field, said she had been silent about her husband's disappearance up to the present because she had been assured "everything is being done to find out who arrested my husband." Field, director of building plans for a Cleveland, O., col lege, is one of three Americans, all related, who disappeared be tween May and the end of Au gust. Field was last seen in Warsaw. He is known to have booked pas sage on a plane for Prague but the plane reached the Czech cap Ital without him and his name had been scratched off the pas sei.ger manifest.
