Whole Story
On H-Bomb
Asked Told
SAN FRANCISCO ( The
American people should be given
all possible information about the
hydrogen bomb because "their
lives are involved, Val Peterson,
federal civil defense administrator,
said Sunday.
Peterson, here for conferences
with local civil defense officials,
declared "this thing is the people's
business I believe utterly in the
ability of the American people to
make the right decisions when they
have adequate information."
Peterson described the H-bomb
as a "tremendously devastating
weapon." He said vast changes
have resulted in civil defense plan
ning as a result of H-bomb experi
ments. "With the atom bomb we pursued
a duck-and-cover protection theme.
Now we have to have a more real
istic approach because our cities
will be absolutely gutted. We've got
to evacuate people if we get enough
warning."
"We can rebuild cities." he add
ed, "but we cannot rebuild the
lives of people.'
Peterson declared he has been
attempting to get more informa
tion on the H-bomb released but
"we're dealing with a very diffi
cult situation."
"No American wants to assist
the enemy any more than we have
to by giving him informations he
might not have. So prudence re
quires that we be very careful."
Governor's
Alaska View
Draws Rebuke
WASHINGTON UP Gov. B.
Frank Heintzlemaa's proposal that
only the populated and developed
pqrtions of Alaska be admitted into
the union drew opposition Sunday
from Delegate Bartlett iD-Alaska)
and from the chairman of the Alas
ka Statehood Committee.
Bartlett, in a statement, char
acterized the part staLe-part terri
tory suggestion made Saturday by
Alaska's governor in a letter to
Speaker Joe Martin (R-Mass' as
"a nicely calculated effort to hurt
the statehood cause."
Robert B. Atwood. Alaska State
hood Committee chairman and ed
itor-publisher of the Anchorage
Times, said the proposal has been
considered many times and re
jected as in accord neither with
the national interest nor the inter
est of Alaska."
Chairman Miller iR-Neb) of the
House Interior Committee recalled
that he made the same proposal
some six years ago and it was
turned down. Miller said he thought
it "was good then and now" but
that he didn't think it would be
accepted.
Atwood and Bartlett said that
Heintzleman. an ex-officio member
of the Statehood Committee, an of
ficial agency of the territorial gov
ernment, did not consult with them
before making his proposal. Hein
tzleman has been here several
weeks.

Busy Again
NEW YORK OP Longshore ac
tivities resumed peacefully Sunday
along New York's vast waterfront.
And the big port made ready to
start moving mountains of cargo
piled on piers during the 29-day
strike..
The city's longest dock walkout
ended Saturday as some 6.000
wage - hungry longshoremen
swarmed back to work. Prospects
were bright that all 20,000 pier
workers would be employed full
time Monday.
Sunday normally is a dull day
along the docks.
The shipping industry has esti
mated the walkout cost the port a
half billion dollars, plus more than
eight million dollars in wages, and
some observers expressed fear that
business diverted to other ports
never would return.

GOP Leaders
Confident of
Tax Victory
WASHINGTON UP Republican
Senate leaders were reported in
creasingly confident Sunday they
can turn back a Democratic drive
to raise income tax exemptions for
all taxpayers and their dependents,
thus cutting their tax bills.
At the same time. Senate Demo
cratic sources said they thought
their chances of success now are
no better than 50-50. A short while
ago (they had Tiigh hopes of win
ning. Senators on both sides of the
issue were wary about comment
ing publicly, largely' because they
agree that a sharp change in eco
nomic conditions in the next two
months could upset all of their
present calculations.
Democrats still think they will
win handily in the Senate if un
employment continues to climb in
to the summer months.
The fight over the income tax
reduction will come on a big tax
revision bill, on which the Senate
Finance Committee opens three
weeks of public hearings Tuesday.
HST 'Knows
Too Much to
Talk on Bomb'
ST. LOUIS '.IP Former Presi
dent Truman said Sunday night he
"knows too much about the hydro
gen bomb to talk about it." but
hopes the bomb will be a contribu
tion to peace.
Truman made his remarks at a
brief press conference after a testi
monial dinner honoring Rabbi Sam
uel Thurman of St. Louis, one of
the chaplains at Truman's inaug
uration in 1949.
"We made every effort possible
to get disarmament and the out
lawing of lethal weapons for
peace," he said. "The Russians al
ways refused and we met over 250
times.
"If the hydrogen bomb can bring
about peace, it is one of the great
est things in the world and worth
all we've spent for it, Truman
said.
In his speech at the dinner the
former President said organization
of the "moral, God-fearing forces"
was the only way to bring peace
and freedom ft the world."
Processing of
Polio Vaccine
Gives Trouble
WASHINGTON UP The U. S.
Public Health Service said Sunday
night there had been some difficul
ties in the commercial processing
of a polio vaccine but it was con
fident none that was unsafe had
been released for use in the mass
immunization program.
Walter Wincheil in a Sunday
night broadcast said a new polio
vaccine "claimed to be a polio
cure" instead "may be a killer."
Wincheil said the Public Health
Service tested 10 batches of the
new vaccine. He said:
"The government's Public Health
Department, I am told, found that
seven of the 10 contained live not
dead polio virus. It killed several
monkeys. The name of the vaccine
is the Salk vaccine, named for Dr.
Jonas Salk of the University of
Pittsburgh."
Find Positives
The Public Health Service, fol
lowing Wincheil ' broadcast, said
in a statement:
"We have found some positives
in the lots of vaccine that we have
tested, as have the other cooperat
ing laboratories and if any vaccine
is found positive, it would not be
released for use in the mass im
munization program.'
"The minimum specifications for
i this program require that any lot
of vaccine that is to be used will
pass the safety testing in all three
laboratories, using tests that have
been approved by the advisory vac
cine committee of the National
Foundation for Infantile Paralysis.
"The Public Health Service is
confident the foundation would not
release for use in this mass im
munization program any vaccine
which was not considered safe ac
cording to the most exactina stand-
ards that can be established for
such preparation. t
Defends Vaccine
Dr. Salk, in an interview March
11 at New Orleans, defended his
vaccine and said that from new
studies, it looked better than ever
as a really practical way of ending
the scourge of polio.
He said then he saw no reason
to delay mass tests on children
because of any doubts about its
safety, supply, or potency.
Nearly 5,000 Pittsburgh-area chil
dren already have had the vaccine.
Dr. Salk said not one had the
slightest fever, or pain of swelling
in the arm from the shots.
