PHONE 2-6209 expressed concern over the situ ation. Scheduled vaccinations of school children were called off in Utah and in Milwaukee, Health Officer E. R. Krumbiegel said he would not allow mass inoculations until the vaccine has been double tested. The delay may hold up inocu lation of Milwaukee youngsters "all summer or longer," Krum biegel said. In Iowa's Jackson county, mass inoculations were indefin itely postponed just as they were scheduled to start. Authorities said their vaccine supply would be kept under refrigeration pending an investigation. New Supply Shipped , But other areas were going ahead with their mass inocula tion programs, reassured by statements from health officials that the Salk vaccine is safe and effective. California, where 11 of the new cases have occurred, asked for new supplies of the vaccine to continue the program. Vaccine .manufactured by the Cutter Laboratories of Berke ley, Calif., had been 'widely used in the California vaccina tions. But 15 children have come down with the polio after receiv ing Cutter vaccine shots and the government has placed a tem poraryNban on the laboratory's product. The National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis said it would air express 243,000 doses of Salk vaccine to California to replace the withdrawn Cutter vaccine. ' In addition to the 11 Califor nia cases, two cnnaren wno re ceived inoculations have become afflicted in Idaho and one each in Illinois, Colorado and Geor gia. One of the Idaho children died. New Cases Reported The new cases included three in Los Angeles, one in Riverside, Calif., one in Oakland and one in Columbus, Ga. The Georgia case raised a new problem, since the six-year-old boy came down with polio after being inoculated by vaccine pro duced by Eli Lilly & Co., of In dianapolis. Eli Lilly is one of the major suppliers of vaccine for the mass inoculation program. But the Public Health Service said the single case was not enough to justify a ban against Eli Lilly vaccine and the company said "it is not surprising" that one of the 2,700,000 children receiving the vaccine in 13 Southern states had become ill. Meanwhile, a Salt Lake City doctor said his three children developed 105-degree tempera tures, muscular soreness and stiffness five days after receiv ing inoculations of Cutter vac cine. "There is no doubt in my mind my children had a reaction from the vaccine," the physician said. r Adjustable Wall Lights by LIGHTOLIER I at-BUSH'S W vjHQV'Ss..

The Association of O&C coun ties urged federal -control of ac cess roads to O&C lands. O&C lands are for the most part small pockets of federally owned timber isolated by sur rounding private holdings. If denied access by private owners, the government cannot harvest the timber. Eighteen Oregon counties under 1937 law receive three-fourths of O&C timber revenues. Land owners at the hearing insisted that the roads remain under private control. cotton, estron Tabbed and outlined in 4 Give Mom Holeproof Personalized Nylons Whether she's a blonde, brunette, brownette or redhead we have the color to blend with her own natural coloring and custom-tailoring to fit her ' own measurements.
