How One Might Help
To Keep from Getting Polio
By HOWARD W. BLAKESLEE

New York, AM- 1 W There is no known way to keep from
getting polio infantile paralysis but there are a lot of thing!
you can do that might help.
The trouble U that no one
knows how the invisible protein
particle, the viruses w h 1 e h
causes the disease, are carried
from person to person.
They are small enough to
float in the air, or to be car
ried on, in or by anything what
ever. Millions of dollars have been
spent vainly trying to learn how
this virus travels. If you sus

is in a bit of food, it takes

McKay Praises

Gov. Douglas McKay voiced
praise for the state welfare com

another month to learn whether
the virus moved to some other
suspected place.
Many facts have been learned,
and common sense fills in the
gaps.
Human beings certainly carry
the virus while they are sick.
They almost certainly get in
what goes into their mouths.
Their throats contain the virus
when they are ill.
If that were all, the break

easier. But now comes the hard
