Smith Joins Plea
For Vaccine Use
Salem U.R) Gov. Elmo
Stnith today joined President
Eisenhower and federal health
authorities in urging Oregonians
to take advantage of the present
plentiful supply of Salk polio
vaccine.
The State Board of Health re
cently announced that the num
ber of polio cases reported in
Oregon so far this year was 62
per cent less than during the
same period a year ago, the
governor pointed out.
At the same time, the depart
ment urged that all children and
adults up to age 45 receive the
full series of three inoculations
of Salk vaccine at recommended
intervals to provide protection
before the start of the 1957 polio
season.
The governor said adequate
supplies of the vaccine were on
hand. He added that sufficient
funds were available through
the national polio vaccine assist
ance act for almost 325,000 in
oculations in Oregon before next
July 1.
"I urge that private physicians
and public health departments
use this supply to assure that no
one in Oregon be denied the
protection of Salk vaccine for
financial reasons," the governor
said.

5P&5, Union Meet
To Settle Dispute
Chicago U.R) Representa
tives of the Brotherhood of Lo-
comotive Engineers and the Spo- !
kane, Portland and Seattle Rail- i
road met today in an effort to
settle a dispute which caused a
five-day strike last week.
Negotiations have been in pro
gress since last Tuesday. A
spokesman for the National j
Mediation Board said work rules 1
pertaining to the extra board,
the use of radio in train opera-
tion and locomotive changes
were at issue. i
The strike a week ago was
called off after President Eisen
hower declared an emergency
under the National Railway
Labor Act and appointed a fact
finding panel. !
The road is owned jointly by
the Great Northern and the
Northern Pacific.
ized resistance.
With a handful of antiquated
85 millimeter anti-tank guns,
they knocked out more tanks
and the huge 152 millimeter
Red army seige guns. In the Kil-ian-Corvin
area alone, they de
stroyed two siege guns and at
least six tanks.
But finally, courage, ingenuity
and old weapons were not
enough.
In their second attack, the
Russians brought in their T-34
tanks. They were virtually in
vulnerable to fires. Unlike the
34s their gasoline was carried
in internal tanks.
I took a long hard look at
these new land-going Soviet
dreadnoughts. It was the first
time they had gone into action
before Western eyes.
The sleet turrets and closely
joined body seams of the T-54s
gave little opportunity for flam
ing gasoline to cling or pene
trate. Exhausts were protected
by flaps and pillows were put
in the engine louvers to filter
out gasoline fumes.
Shells from the World War
II 85s bounced harmlessly off
this most modern tank in mass
production in either fide of the
Iron Curtain.
Unlike the first attack, in the
second the Soviets used planes,
the MIG 15s and 17s and the
IL28s, to bomb strong points

on Gellert Hill fired down
the resistance areas.
But the Hungarians fought
on. Men holding out in the post
office telephoned Josef Cardinal
Mindszeny in the U.S. legation
to ask, "Bless us, Father, before
we die." They died on the sec
ond day.
The Russians took no chances?
A single shot from a sniper
brought a salvo from the heavi
est artillery to kill one man
Church steeples were system
atically shelled because they
were choice spots for a sniper.
Last Stronghold
The last areas to hold out
were the great iron and steel
plants on what was once called
" Red Csepcl," and the indus
trial suburb of Ujpcst. They
stopped fighting only whom it
became clear the Russians
would destroy the entire works
that the men consider their own.
Even after the crushing of re
sistance in Budapest, the Strug
gle went on in -the country. Stu
dents at Saropatak College
near Satoraljauhely, not far
from the Soviet border, took to
the hills as partisans, confining
the Russians to the main roadi.
As I write this, reports from
Budapest indicate fighting may
break out again. If it does, I will
hope, against all logic and rea
son, that a people who have
taught the world a lesson in
courage will win.

one night in Budapest: iTie especial btovea oi uoa.
