WASHINGTON (,?) A pos , sible further slowdown o the mass anti-'polio inoculation of school children- loomed Sat urday as the government re- portedly contemplated fur ther tightening of safety standards for the Salk vac cine. Meanwhile, the government on advice of a panel of scientists decided to continue the dosage and vaccination procedure worked out in last year's field trials of the polio preventive. Because of the vaccine scarcity there had been discussion of pos sibly reducing the dosage now 1 cc per shot and changing the method of injection to spread sup plies, j PREVENTIVE MEDICINE ! The government also decided against curtailing inoculations during the summer height of the polio season. Although the ad visory group did say the most; favorable time for vaccination is before the epidemic season, it added in a statement Friday night that administration of vaccine during a polio outbreak "has its place in preventive medicine." Some doctors had voiced concern lest administration of the vaccine during such a period might pro voke the disease.

Lfi A National Guard pilot landed his Sabre Jet plane here Saturday, completing the first halt of an attempted round-trip transcontin ental flight between sunrise and sunset. Lt. John M. Conroy, 34, set his plane down at Mitchel Field at 2:22:05 eastern Daylight time. He lunched while (he plane was refueled. He arrived five hours 22 min utes 5's seconds after he left Los Angeles. RETURN TRIP Conroy set out on the return halt had been hoped for next imy the West Coast at week. But the possibility of a new delay in distributing the vaccine arose when vaccine manufactur ers said their technical specialists) had been called to a Monday con ference here. The subject: new: safety standards. SEND REPRESENTATIVES Parke, Davis & Co., Detroit, said three of its virus experts would attend. Eli Lilly & Co., In dianapolis, said it planned to send several of its top produc tion and research men. The pub lic health service had no com ment on the meeting it was said to have called. The manufacturers reportedly were told, in connection with the Monday conference, that new re quirements may be applied from now on to all vaccine approved by the government. Such stiffer standards may re quire an extra three to five days of testing, informants said. It a 2:57.46 eastern Daylight time. He took off from Los Angeles at 6 a.m.. Pacific daylight time. Conroy, a combat veteran, made two refueling stops en route, and was scheduled to make three on the return trip. The round trip calls for flight of some 5.800 miles and the plane, the "California Boomerang," must average about 465 miles an hour to make it between sunup and sundown. His schedule called for break fast in Los Angeles, luncheon in New York City, and dinner in Los Angeles with his wife and three children.

SUPPLIES SCARCE Vaccine supplies to continue the inoculation program have been scarce, although some of the Parke Davis and Eli Lilly product was released a week after a double-chock by health service teams. Trouble was, most o those re leased supplies already had been used and only a limited amount became available for new injec tions. Three other licensed manufac turers have been awaiting similar approvals. Jurors Find Bailey Guilty of Conspiracy Kichard G.
