Polio Expert Recommends Vaccinations Be Halted (Continued from Page One) as potential carriers of polio, Dr. &aiK declared there was no evi dence to support association con traction. "Not if the children receive prop erly prepared vaccine." he said. But Dr. Salk conceded "there seems to be an association" be tween contraction of polio by others who have come in contact with children receiving improperly made vaccine. Public Heallh Service statistics on polio incidence have shown a considerable number of cases among persons associating with orners wno nave received vaccine Earlier in the hearing the ones. tion was raised whether the Salk vaccines as now manufactured might produce kidney ailments. Dr. Salk said he had determined experimentally that it would not have any effect on the human Kinney. . But doubts were expressed by some other physicians among the polio authorities who were before tne House subcommittee. Chairman Priest (D-Tenn) ar ranged the session with the idea, he said of "creating a renewed and well informed confidence in the program." The discussion developed that some residual protein from monkey kidney material remains in the vaccine under present man ufacturing processes. The polio vi rus needed for the vaccine Is grown In monkey kidney. Dr. Manfred M. Mayer of Johns Hopkins University said there was no way to tell whether this protein might result at some future time In kidney ailments hut h ai,i there was such a possibility. Mayer said these impurities might well not be harmful but that it is "commercially feasible" to reduce them sharply and in his view this should be done.
