Salk Vaccine
Credited With
Halting Polio
But More People Will
Have to Get Shots,
Erickson Says
Dr. Harold Erickson, state health
officer, yesterday gave Salk polio
vaccine credit for the first reduc
tion In Oregon's polio rate in nine
years.
Dr. Erickson reported to the
State Board of Health meeting
hero that the 1956 polio rate would
be the lowest since 1047, barring
a major outbreak this month.
Oregon had only 150 cases of in
fantile paralysis through Novem
ber, compared to 400 cases during
the same period last year and a
five-year median of 337 cases.
But the health officer warned
that Oregon could suffer another
polio outbreak next year unless
more persons took advanlngo or
the generous supplies of Salk vac
cine now available.
He said "In general it Is con
sidered necessary to havo 80 per
cent of tho population protected
through proper vaccination to pre
vent a major outbreak of a dis
ease."
So far, only 18 per cent of Ore
gonlans under 20 and less than
ono per cent of persons over 20
havo received tho three shots be
lieved necessary for full protec
tion from the cripplcr.
Effectiveness of tho vaccine was
demonstrated, Dr. Erickson said,
by the fact that Oregon's paralytic
polio rale among persons under 20
who received one or more shots of
vaccine was 2.8 per lon.OOO popu
lation, as of Nov. 24. The rate for
tho same age group without the
shots was 22.1.

leader from exile In Mexico over
shadowed Friday's violence in
which at least 25 persons were
killed or wounded. Casualties in
cluded six killed and 19 wounded.
Small bands of armed civilians
struck in six eastern Cuban cities
Friday. They raided government
buildings, sabotaged public utili
ties and seized private stocks of
weapons.
The raids touched off a series
of island-wide roundups of known
political opponents of Batista.
More than 200 persons were taken
into custody,
Sources said the hit-and-run
commando-style attacks indicated
a sharp change in tactics by the
revolutionaries. More such raids
were expected,
Heretofore, the rebels attacked
definite military objectives, such
as the garrisons at Santiago and
Matanzas. The sources said Fri
day's raids, erupting almost simul
taneously in cities as much as 300
miles apart, indicated the rebels
may now be relying on a guerrilla
like campaign. This would be de
signed to build up public opinion
against Batista and force demands
for his resignation or overthrow.
Brig. Gen. Martin Diaz Tamayo,
regional commander of the orien
tal zone, said government forces
"repelled" tho attacks and are in
position to continue to do so. He
said the government had "prior
knowledge of planned military
movements."

Morse Thinks
Tension Down
PORTLAND Ml - Sen. Wayne
Morse, Oregon Democrat who has
been a frequent critic of the Eis
enhower administration's foreign
policy, said Friday tensions in the
Middle East are casing and "this
is a time for senators to be silent."
Morse, home from a series of
meetings ol the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee, said he con
siders "the danger of war much
less than it wns a month ago."
This, he said, is because of "the
remnrknble unity of action within
the United Nations on the part of
many free nations," as well as
"the leadership the administration
is showing in the United Nations."
Aside from this general com
ment Morso declined to discuss
with reporters the Middle East
i situation.
j "This Is a time for senators lo
he silent," he said, "and give the
administration support for what is
I in the best interest and what is
necessary."

Slowdowns on
Docks in New
York Continue
Action Taken Despite
Order Extending
Ban of Strike
NEW YORK Ifl Work slow
downs continued on the New York
waterfront yesterday despite a
federal court order extending the
Taft-Hartley ban on the East and
Gulf Coast dock strike to 80 days.
The Uunard liner Queen Mary
sailed yesterday with two-thirds of
the cargo she brought in from
Southampton still in her holds.
Only 20 of 300 tons of outbound
express cargo had been put
aboard before sailing time. A
large quantity of mail also was
left on the pier.
The Home liner Roma sailed
four hours late. But line officials
said all her cargo got aboard.
For the past two days the dock
hcrs here, members of the in
ternational Longshoremen's Assn.,
(ind), have been taking their time
loading and unloading vessels.
New York port activity has been
cut to 50 to 60 per cent of normal.
The employers of the New York
Shipping Assn., have termed the
slowdown "the equivalent of a
partial strike."
ILA officials deny they have di
rected the slowdowns. A union
spokesman said the men were
showing resentment against the
court's halting of the strike.
Other East and Gulf Coast ports
have reported normal operations.
The New York slowdown has
been concentrated along the Hud
son River luxury line piers in mid-
town Manhattan.
Federal Judge Frederick van
Pelt Bryan yesterday extended
the temporary injunction on the
basis of a government plea that
any renewed walkout could impe
ril the nation s military and atom
ic energy programs.
During its nine-day strike, how
ever, ILA members handled mili
tary cargo.
.The new federal order bars any
strike before mid-February. The
temporary injunction tormauy ex
pires next Tuesday.

Man s Story of
Four Killings
Receives Check
LOS ANGELES (UP)-Homicide
detectives today investigated the
story of Stephen Nash, a 33-year-old
ex-convict who said he mur
dered four persons, including a 10-year-old
boy, because he "hated
people."
, Police said the tall, dark tran
sient truckdriver confessed Friday
that he was the man who stabbed
Larry George Rice, 10, of Venice,
Calif., more than 30 times and left
him dying under a pier at nearby
Santa Monica.
Officers said Nash went on to
claim that he had killed three
other persons, including hair styl
ist John W. Berg, 27, of Long
Beach, Calif., Floyd Lcroy Bar
nett, a transient knifed near Sac
ramento, Calif., and an unidenti
fied hitchhiker.
Chief of Detectives Thad Brown
said "We're believing him until
his story is proved differently. He
has enough details on all the slay
ings to indicate that he was the
murderer."
"They all had real problems, I
tell you,", police quoted Nash. "I
don't know how I know how bad
their problems are, but I do and
when they've got those kind of
problems, I just have to kill
them."
Officers said Nash told them he
kept a knife strapped to his arm
and a steel pipe bludgeon in his
car.

Chou also told reporters that
Americans in Chinese jails can be
released before the end of their
sentences "it they have good be
havior." ' Ten Americans, includ
ing five Catholic priests, arc still
imprisoned in Red China.
Informed sources said Chou told
Nehru to relay to President Eisen
hower the message that Red
China is willing to release the de
tained Americans. The sources
said Chou pointed out he did not
want to be repaid.
But Chou told reporters this
morning: "I want to point out
that there are still Chinese in
American jails who have not been
released and sent back to China."
Sources said Chou told Nehru he
had "no objection" to meeting
with Mr. Eisenhower to discuss or
"clarify" misunderstanding be
tween the United States and Red
China.
Nehru is scheduled to visit
Washington later this month.

Earlier Gicsy called for a 9 per

municipal, rural electrification
administration and non-REA co
operatives on the same basis as
private utilities and peoples' util
ity districts.
Rep. Charles A. Tom, Rufus,
said that the Legislative Tax
Study Interim Committee had
recommended that co-operatives
be given the option of paying the
2 per cent revenue tax they now
pay or an ad valorem tax. Giesy
said this plan was aimed princi
pally at the Eugene Water and
Electric Board which he said has
17 million dollars worth of prop
erty that is tax free as far as the
state is concerned.
Paul Liniger, a spokesman for
the forest industry, and Don A.
Ellis, chairman of the taxation
subcommittee of the Business Ex
ecutives Research Committee,
called for deferred taxation for
timber to replace the ad valorem
system under which most Oregon
timber now is taxed.
Wallace Eubanks, tax commis
sion appraisal supervisor, and
Robert F. Kcniston, OSC forest
management professor, opposed
this plan.
State Sen. Lee Ohmart, Salem,
explained the interim tax commit
tee s proposed forest yield tax
law which would defer, until the
cutting of limber, a graduated tax
ranging from 1 to 1214 per cent.

MCMURDO SOUND, Antarctica
OR A string of mishaps has tem

buildup at the South Pole.
The latest accident occurred
Thursday night. A big U.S. Air
Force C124 Globemaster bringing
technicians from New Zealand
crashed and caught fire at this
air base on the antarctic coast

Supreme Court
Asked to Limit
Congress Probe
WASHINGTON .Ufi The Su
preme Court' has been asked to put
a limit on the scope of congres
sional investigations.
John T. Watkins of Rockford,
111., appealing his conviction on a
contempt of Congress charge,
contended in a brief that a com
mittee "has no separate and dis
tinct power of exposure unrelated
to a legislative purpose," and add
ed: "When the sole or primary pur
pose of a congresional committee
is the exposure of individuals to
public scorn and retribution, the
committee is engaging in a legis
lative trial in violation of the doc
trine of separation of powers."
Watkins, an organizer for the
United Automobile Workers Union,
challenged the action of the House
Committee on Un-American Ac
tivities in citing him for contempt.
Appearing before that committee
in March 1954, Watkins said he
would tell it all about himself but
would not inform on past asso
ciates who he said were no longer
connected with the Communist
movement.
He testified he had never been
a Communist, but said he had co
operated with Communists in the
Farm Equipment Workers Union
some 10 years before.

And on the
Bernardino, cam., injured an
ankle. Other crewmen and the re
maining 30 passengers escaped
injury.
But the three million dollar air
craft was considered nearly a
total loss.
There already were two of the
90-ton Globemasters broken down
with landing gears shattered -.
at the edge of the ice runway. One
plane crasblanded only Wednes
day on its return from a flight to
drop supplies to 19 Navy Seabees
at the South Pole. Another crash
landed Oct. 22.
The 16 civilian technicians
aboard the latest Globemaster to
crash had flown from the United
States to try to repair the first
damaged craft before McMurdo
Sound's ice runway melts away.
Although damage to the first
two planes is relatively minor,
they must be repaired soon. The
6,000-foot runway now is only 25
miles from the edge of the fast
breaking bay ice. Last January
the distance was 50 miles.
Repeated tractor breakdowns
here and at the South Pole base
also piled on more frustration.
With three cargo planes and a
large number of the base's trac
tors out of operation, the airlift
of equipment to the Seabees build
ing the polar camp ground to a
virtual halt.
The Seabees' mission is to put
up prefabricated buildings to a
party of American scientists who
plan to spend the antarctic winter
at the pole, making observations
for the International Geophysical
Year.
