The State Board of Health supplied figures showing that Oregon is in the midst of mass attack on infantile paralysis O armed with free vaccine supplies and lavish donations of time and skill on the part of private phy sicians and nurses. Largest Single Battle Largest single battle in the Oregon polio war is now being waged in Multnomah county where sponsors working in close cooperation with the county medical society hopes to reach nearly every eligible child in the metropolitan area. All shots are given free and are to be admin istered by private physicians do Onating their services in mass clinics in some 120 county schools and parochial schools. Medical societies in virtually Qvery county in the state have backed the mass inoculation pro grams, starting first in Jackson county where the first Oregon program of its kind has now b0Tt completed. Ca1jai4nin4 in Stale tatus of the campaign in the rest of the stSte looks like this: Clatsop is about finished with its public clinics, sponsored by (Jhe medical society; Curry is underway with private physi cians donating their services; Douglas is underway with some assistance by private physicians but mostly by the county health officer; Josephine has completed a program almost as ambitious as Jackson's; Lane's program is till in the planning stage: Lin coln, Marion and Polk are all underway with society-sponsored programs; Tillamook's pro gram is partly private and part ly in the schools; Washington and Yamhill both in progress with medical society assistance; Masco and Sherman counties have limited inoculation pro grams in action and Columbia county has one on planning boards with society help; Clack amas will get going later this month with some public clinics' and some society assistance; Coos is underway with private doctors lending a hand; and in Morrow county the health offi cer is administering most of the shots. Vaccina Shortage Bottleneck So far, the main bottleneck encountered is the shortage cf vaccine. Supplies are made available by the federal govern ment to 25 per cent of eligible groups persons up to 20 years of age and pregnant women.. Others must pay for their own vaccine at their own doctor's office. But in Multnomah county a unique plan is under consider ation whereby the county chap ter of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis would buy vaccine from its own treas ury for free distribution of first round shots to young adults those in the 20-40 age bracket. A decision on allocation of existing vaccine supplies will be made Friday when the State Board of Health meets in Salem. On The Side .(Distributed by King fllrrp. little babT. llrrp.

Christina Bossettl Last year 11,000 members of the United States forces station ed abroad married European girls. Preferred by our boys over there were English girls. After, that German girls and then French. There are 225,000 bach elors in their 20s in our forces in Europe. Each averages about four proposals of marriage a week from foreign females eager to become brides of Americans. Considering this, it is remark able that only 11,000 of our bachelors were captured by Eur opean bachelorettes. Asking Queries from clients. Q.

Horses and Women A young man of Manhattan who is considering a matrimon ial alliance with a red:haired woman asks for some facts about that type of female. According to our Horses and Women ex perts, redheads fall in and out of love easily. When married they want to dominate the house hold and usually do except when married to a red-haired man. Only a redhead knows how to handle a readhead. Red hair is inherited. Usually from the fath er's side. Redhead females are all right in technicolor films but they televise poorly. They are inclined to suffer from rheuma tism and are difficult to anaes thetize. The most intelligent of redheads, but also the most dif ficult to handle, are those with sea-green eyes. The most inten sely affectionate redheads are those with brown eyes, especial ly, if they also have freckles. THE. tUM whole: family t-ovesy . iff 7 y y Big rvlngs cost so little!

Pipe smoking is down 10 per cent. So, the records indicate. In the past, cigar smoking has suffer ed because of feminine objec tions to it. Husbands have bowed to these objections rather than be subjected to -wifely disfavor. However, it appears the cigar smokers are beginning to assert themselves and to share the opinion of Kipling that " a wom an is only a woman. but a good cigar is a smoke." Sidelights Men born under Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) suffer more from engyesis than any other males of the Zodiac. Or, so say the stargazers. . . My progress continues to astound me. Now I have a Reader in Rib Lake, Wis. I'll bet the fishing is good there. And how about the canoe ing in the moonlight in the good, old summertime? Weather Where in the U.S.A. Is the place holding the nation's hot test day record? How about greatest rainfall in a month record? The dry spell record? Most snow in a calendar month? Greatest four-day fall of snow? Well, sir, all these places are in California. So, if a California claims his state has a more var ied climate than any other in the union, don't argue. Here are the records: Hottest day, 134 degrees. July 10, 1913, Death Valley, Calif. Most rainfall in a month. At Helen Mine. Calif., 71.54 inches, Jan. 1909. Longest Dry Spell. At Bagdad, Calif.

My husband told me to have illicit affairs. Cary V. I had no intention of breaking up our home. Edna V. A little over a year ago, after a marriage of 12 years, my husband told me he was be ing unfaithful to me. He said he felt our marriage was not "work ing out" and advised me to go ahead and do as he was doing. I didn't do as he advised, but I did decide to busy myself with civic and social activities. While doing some volunteer work, I met a bachelor of my own age and both being lonely, we be came great friends. Now this man has asked me to marry him and I want to do so. Imagine my surprise when my husband said that under no cir cumstances would he consider a divorce! He says he wants to keep our home together for the children's sake, but what kind of a home can we give them un der these circumstances? Cary V. My wife does not mention that when I told her I was being unfaithful, I a 'so told her I had no intention of break ing up our hme. I am the child of divorced parents and I know how hard it is on the children. I am willing to make sacrifices for their sake and I think Edna should be, too. Nevertheless, I am not the kind of man who cheats. I had to let Edna know what was go ing on and where she stood. I felt she had a right to the same freedom and privileges I was taking. Not many men would be have as I did and I feel that Edna should have appreciated my honesty. As a matter of fact, I cannot possibly support two households, so a divorce is out of the ques tion. The only solution is for Edna to consider herself as free as I am. The Council: Behind Cary's pose, in the mirror of his own imagination, of a "free spirit," a responsible father, an "honest" and fair husband is a desperate ly frightened man, fleeing from emotional involvement with his wife or anybody else. Cary should get rid of the il lusion that he is making any "sacrifice" for his children. He is rather using them as a sacri fice so that he can pursue his uninvolved, irresponsible affairs, with them as an excuse for not accepting the consequences of his actions. The "home" he pro vides for them is not only a poor one, it is not even a real one, for it lacks the emotional binder of love. Is Edna faultless In this af fair? Hardly. She evidently felt she was doing the decent thing by staying clear of illicit affairs and trying to occupy herself as profitably as possible. But she had the greater responsibility of trying to save her marriage and her home for her own sake as well as her children's. She is wrong to head toward the di vorce court without putting up a fight for her marriage. " Edna should realize her hus band needs help her help as well as religious and psychologi cal guidance. Her husband's ideas on marriage are absurd and childish, to say the least. Both she and Cary can profit by marriage counseling. (Copyright 1957, General Features Corp.) Auston. Tex. U.R) Texas I could throw control of the United States Senate to the Re publican party in a special elec tion April 2. A majority of the state's Democrats are not going to vote Republican. But the Democrats, in splitting their votes among 20 candidates, may not give any one enough votes to beat a Re publican. This would open the way for the Republicans to gain control of the U.S. Senate in Washing ton. Resignation Vacates Seat The Senate seat became va cant when Democrat Price Dan iel had to resign to be inaugur ated as governor of Texas. His Senate term must be filled until 1959. The last official act of former Gov. Allan Shivers, whom Daniel succeeded, was to appoint Democrat William Blakley, a Dallas millionaire, to the job temporarily. That preserved the tenuous 49-47 hold the Democrats had on the Senate. But under Texas law Blakley must be replaced by an elected senator. If a Republican is elected. It will give the Democrats and Re publicans a tie. Vice President Richard M. Nixon can break the tie with his vote and let the Republicans reorganize the Sen ate. Hutcheon Chosen Months before Daniel re signed, the Republicans an nounced that Thad Hutcheson, a 41-year-old Houston attorney, would be their candidate. President Eisenhower en dorsed him and he has been campaigning as no other Repub lican candidate in Texas before him. J. J. Antoine Sr., of Bastrop, entered as a Republican, but the Texas party disowned him and labeled Hutcheon as its man. The Democrats realized at once what might happen. They undertook in the current session of the state Legislature to change the special election law. The law provides that the man who gets the most votes wins. The attempt to change the law and set up a run-off between the highest Republican and the highest Democratic candidates failed. There are few real issues in the election. All the candidates, including Republican Hutche son, think the federal budget should be cut. Dies Trying One of the most widely-known Democratic candidates, U. S. Congressman - at - large Martin Dies, contends that he is the only man in the race with con gressional experience. Clyde R. Orms, of Dallas, was Tigard Post Office To Become Branch Portland (U.P.) The Ti gard. Ore., postmark will be come a thing of the past after Friday. Portland Postmaster Al bert Hodler has announced that the Tigard post office will become another branch of the Portland post office as of Saturday. He said the changeover would improve service to the approxi mately 6000 suburban patrons of the ngard office. It will elim inate all but one rural route and establish one foot-carrier route and two mounted routes. discovered to be bankrupt after he announced his candidacy. He said this was the strongest point in his favor. Since it helps him understand others in a bad fi nancial plight. Although Texas votes over whelmingly Democratic in state races, President Eisenhower has carried the state in the last two presidential elections. So Republican Hutcheson is making a pitch toward "Eisen hower Democrats." His biog raphy, beneath a picture of his family gathered outside a mod est home, says: "He married Caroline Brown lee of Austin. They have four boys, ranging in age from 15 years to the eight-year old twins (born on Ike's birthday)." Knight Denies Record Of Teamster Donation Sacramento, Calif. (U.R) Gov. Goodwin J. Knight said yes terday he has "no record" of any campaign contributions from the Teamsters Union and had "noth ing whatever to do" with the appointment of a director of the Port of San Francisco backed by the union. Knight's office issued a brief formal statement today in reply to testimony by West Coast teamsters boss Frank W. Brew ster in Washington that the un ion contributed to Knight's 1954 gubernatorial campaign and the governor later got the man of the union's choice named to the port directorship. Salem (U.P.)
