There is one big point of differ ence betwen the administration and the 1952 Democratic presi dential candidate, Dulles said in formal statement at his news conference. "Mr. Stevenson. . . forgets one ally, namely, the Republic of Chi na. . . it is upon the loyalty and resources of that ally that the free world must primarily depend for the defense of Formosa. Yet, Mr. Stevenson seems to assume that that ally can be ig nored and rebuffed. , 'Features Endorsed' ' 1 "Aside from this, Mr. Stevenson has in tact endorsed the main features of the administration's program in relation to Formosa." Stevenson spoke in a nationwide broadcast Monday night from Chi' cago. - He said the United States' has gotten itself in a position in Asia where it faces "another damaging and humiliating retreat, or else the hazard of war."

Salk Vaccine Rough on India Monkeys ANN ARBOR. Mich. Ml If things were rough for the mon keys of India, the effective Salk vaccine will make it rougher, be fore things get better. The demand for India's Rhesus monkey will grow now that the vaccine is licensed and will be American children and others throughout the world. So far, the kidney of the Rhesus monkey is the only well-proven base for producing the vaccine. There is some evidence, however, National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis officials said, that ba boon kidneys will do just as welL At any rate, spokesmen said, no shortage of the Rhesus is expected. ''They crawl all over the place over there.", spokesmen said. Currently, the National Fwmda tion figures that no more than 2,500 shots can be obtained from a single monkey's kidneys. ort Sets Mark in Polio Battle WASHINGTON (XI Tuesday's report of the high effectivenss of the Salk vaccine in preventing par alytic polio marks the most out standing devlopment so far in the 166 year old fight against The di sease. Here are some highlights of the" war on polio as prepared by the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis: '1789 Polio was first described by Michael Underwood, a British physician, who asked other doc tors "to pay attention to it" 184a Dr. Jacob Heine, a Ger man bone specialist, learned that symptoms of polio result from damaged or destroyed nerve cells. 1890 Dr. C. Medin gave a comprehensive description" of symptoms of the maiaay, ana called polio an infectious disease. 1909 Dr. Karl Landstemer, an Austrian researcher, showed that polio may be transmitted to the monkey, thus giving scientists an experimental animal in which to study the disease. Landsteiner also demonstrated that polio is caused by a virus. 1 1927 The late Franklin D. Roosevelt, a polio victora. founded the Georgia Warm Springs Founda tion, ' first institution exclusively devoted to polio victims. 193S The National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis was incor porated to "unify and direct" the fight against polio. 1949 Doctor " John F. Enders, Thomas H. Weller and Frederick C. Robbins of Harvard found that polio virus can be grown in cul tures of non-nerve tissue in test tubes. "This discovery paved the way for growth of the virus in quantities massive enough for use in a vaccine. 1951 Research costing $1,190,- OOt in March of Dimes funds de termined that all known strains of polio, can be classified into three broad types "this showed thati a successful vaccine would haVe to imunize against all three types of virus." 1952 Dr. William McD. Ham mon of the University of Pitts burgh showed, through the use of the blood derivative "gamma glob ulin" that "relative small amounts of antibodies in the human blood stream can protect against para lytic polio." 1953 Dr. Jonas E. Salk of the University of Pittsburgh reported hopeful results in preliminary vac cine in investigations involving the inactivation of the polio virus with formalin. 1954 Approximately 1,830,000 school children participated in a nationwide program to evaluate the Salk vaccine. And Tuesday April 12, 1955 came the historic report fram Ann Arbor on results of the field trials.
