THURSDAY, JUNE 16. 1960 Live Polio Virus Vaccine Said Widely Accepted Washington, (Science Serv-lce)-More than 60,000,000 per sons outside the U.S. have been vaccinated with live polio virus vaccine developed by Americans but not yet li censed for use in the U.S., a chief medical officer of the World Health organization re ported here. Dr. A. M. M. Payne said 1 the acceptance abroad was partly a matter of economics. He reported that Ameri cans can afford the three chot Salk vaccine in which the viruses are not alive. But other nations have gone ahead successfully with the live vaccine (which is not unanimously accepted as be ing as safe as Salk's) because it is cheaper and easier to use. (It takes just one oral dose of the live vaccine to Immunize.) The USSR, Poland, East Germany, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, the Netherlands, Sweden, the United Kingdom and some Latin American na tions have used the live vac cine. 95 Experts Attend Dr. Payne spoke during ses sions of the Second Interna tional Conference on Live Poliovirus Vaccines being held at Georgetown universi ty through June 10. About 95 polio experts from 20 nations attended. Dr. Joseph L. Melnick of the Baylor university College of Medicine, Houston, Tex., explained why laboratory ex periments on monkeys are still important in determining the live vaccine's safety. But, he added, the ultimate test of the safety of live vac cines rests in long-term studies of its use on human beings, such as those populations al ready vaccinated. The live vaccines being dis cussed usually are adminis tered in the form of a fruit flavored syrup or in capsules or pills. The conference is being sponsored by the Pan Amer ican Health organization and the World Health organiza tion, with the asistance of the Sister Elizabeth Kenny foun dation of Minneapolis, Minn. Remains of City In Which No One Lived Discovered New York -(Science Service)- Remains of a big ancient city in which no one ever lived was found by a party of scientists from the American Museum of Natural History here. The city extends for more than eight miles along the Porali river in western Pakistan. The city, known to natives of the region as "City of Light," was not a ghost city in the sense that it had been abandoned. The only buildings in it were temples and other places of worship. It was really a twin site, the older of the two dating back as much as 4,000 years. Although no one lived in the city it was a sacred center visited by wor shippers who traveled to it from places hundreds of miles away because no shrine like it has been found for hundreds of miles around. Streets in Place Mud bricks of which the an cient buildings were construct ed are no longer in place but stone foundations 4 to 5 feet tall and stone streets, floors, steps, ramps and wells are still in place. They are made of carefully fitted river boul ders. The newer of the twin cities Is marked with puzzling cir cles some as large as 40 feet across and standing 4 feet high. One structure in the older city is 87 feet wide and 234 feet long. It has five en trances and seven rooms. The expedition was under the direction of Dr. Walter A. Fairservis Jr. and the digging was done with the cooperation of Dr. F. A. Khan of the de partment of archaeology of the Pakistan Ministry of Education. MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, ORE.
