The statement was made joint ly by Dr. Grant B. Hughes, coun ty health officer, and Dr. S. B. Osbood, epidemiologist with the Oregon Health department. The doctors added, however, that the two surveys showed that sanitation conditions had deter iorated in the county during the past several months. Complete Inoculation Officials Saturday completed mass gamma globulin inocula tions in the Nyssa school district in a desperate effort to halt the spread of polio in the county. The surveys were requested just prior to the inoculation program to see if sanitary conditions might possibly be a contributing factor to the epidemic. About 2,600 persons went through the inoculations as of noon Saturday, and Hughes esti mated that the number would be raised to 3,000 by the time the program was completed tonight. The two health authorities said the . studies, while eliminating sanitation conditions as a cause of the polio epidemic, pointed up the heed for a full time sani tarian within the county.

S. population will jump 35 per cent between 1954 and 1975 with a total of 221,749,- 000 persons compared to today's 160,000,000 plus population. . Pacific Coast states are in for the biggest part of the coming growth, according to the insti tute. They will show a 76 per cent growth for a total of 29, 439,000 by 1975. The Mountain Stales should gain some 66 per cent during the period to reach a population of 9,852,000. California will register the largest jump 87.7 per cent with an increase from 12,554,000 to 23,565,000. To reach these figures the in stitutes economists applied birth, death, and migration rates to specific age groups. This tech nique, called the "cohort-survival method," is considered more accurate than strict methemati cal forecasts which tend to ne glect the vital factors of popula tion growth and change.
