Six New Polio Cases
Are Reported In Oregon
(Continued from Page One)
June 14, 21 and 28. Additional clin
ics will be arranged if the response
is large enough, Dr. E. J. Waui
scott, county health officer, said.
The National Foundation for In
fantile Paralysis has advised that
vaccine not used in the first shot
may be used for the second in -the
three-shot program. Dr. Jonas Salk
told the board in a letter Tuesday
that time lags between the first
and second shot would not make
the first shot ineffective. .He rec
ommended an interval of two to
four weeks, however.
The board expects to have
enough vaccine on hand soon to
complete the second shot.
The 48 cases of polio this year
compares with 33 reported at this
time last year.
The board said this does not
necessarily mean that this year s
polio season is worse than last
year s. u could mean that the sea
son was starting earlier and that
it might as it has in the past
ena earner, tne Board said.

Ford Motor Strike Averted
By At Least Four Days
(Continued from Page One)
added time "to explore the
company's new proposal and to
try to work out our diffe-ences on
all unresolved issues."
Reuther said union negotiators
had advised the Ford company
that "the contract wili not be ex;
tended beyond Monday, June 6..
If agreement . has not been
reached between now and that date
a strike will begin," iteutners
statement said. '
Meanwhile approximately .2.000
workers at Ford's South Chicago
assembly plant quit work Wednes
day in apparent anticipation of a
strike Wednesday night. UAW lead
ers were expected to urge them
back to work.
After Reuther Issued nis state
ment, union and company negotia
tors continued their bargaining
sessions. It was anounced that a
"moratorium" of any report of
what went on in the closed door
meeting would be observed by the
company and union until noon
Thursday. ,
This was the second 24-hour
clamp-down on bargaining de
velopments, Reuther's statement said that in
addition to the union's guaranteed
annual wage demand, ir.sue. still
unresolved include the duration of
the contract, wages, seniority pr
visions, pension implements,
"and numerous other nutters re
lating to the workine condi
tions and the welfare of Ford work
ers and their families.'
Because of the Ford contract ex
tension, the Ford and General
Motors contracts vill run out at
roughly the same time. The GM
UAW agreement expires June 7 but
the lack of a specific hour of term
ination could carry the rwo pacts
down to the wire together.
Earlier Wednesday Ford was re
ported to have indicatJl willing
ness to bargain on the union-demanded
guaranteed annual wage.
The Detroit Times sJid it was
informed by one source ihat Ford
had indicated it might grant job
less payments to laid-off workers
supplementing slate unemploy
ment compensation.
