Polk County
Gets Polio Aid
Polk county's hard-hit chap
ter of the National Foundation
for Infantile Paralysis today re
ceived an $11,150 advance in
March of Dimes funds from
foundation headquarters in New
York City. .
The chapter has spent a $2500
advance received last December
10, plus all of its share of Folk's
$5159 income from the county s
1949 March of Dimes, according
to Felix Montes of Portland, the
foundation's Oregon representa
tive. Four of the 28 adults and
children stricken with polio in
Polk's 1948 epidemic are still
hospitalized and most of the
others continue to require spe-.
cial care, Montes explained. He
added, however, that no new
cases have been reported in the
county this year.

King Leopold's
Chances Vanish
Brussels, Belgium, June 28
W) King Leopold's chances of
returning to the Belgian throne
were blasted by Sunday's elec
tion.
Final parliamentary election
returns, issued yesterday, show
ed that the Social Christian
(Catholic) party, supporting
Leopold, failed to get the abso
lute majority they needed to
force a referendum
back the king.
They strengthened their posi
tion as Belgium's biggest party
though, winning 104 of the 212
seats in the chamber of depu
ties. This represented a gain of
12 over the 1946 elections
The Socialists, who have ruled
the country in a coalition cab
inet with the social Christians,
continued in second place. They
won 66 seats, a loss of three
seats.
The Liberals a conservative
group almost doubled their
strength emerging with 30 seats
They had 17.
This swing to the right, which
observers have noted in most
recent European elections, was
emphasized by the communist
loss of 11 "seats. They now have
12.

No 'Air Lifted
Possible for Hawaii
Washington, June 28 (U.PJ
Gov. Ingram M. Stanback oi
Hawaii says the Hawaiian ship
ping strike is "destroying our
industry entirely.
Stanback, who arrived here
Sunday, told United Press in an
interview that the strike was
more damaging to Hawaiians
than the Berlin blockade was
to citizens there.
He pointed out that no "air
lift" is possible for the islands
because the 2,100 nautical mile
distance from the mainland
makes sizable cargo operations
by air impossible.
