ANNOUNCEMENT recently of the development of a new polio vaccine which is taken by mouth rather than by injection caused considerable excitement and comment. Its proponents expect it to be more effective than the Salk vaccine in prevention of the disease. It would be a tragedy, however, if the stir in anticipation of this new vaccine should cause the Salk vaccination program to falter at this time. For the fact is that the new vaccine will not be available in quantities for general use for perhaps two years, according to word from the National Foundation, which has sponsored the development of the new vaccine as well as of the Salk vaccine. In the meantime, the need for protection against polio continues.

And consequently the work of accination with the available Salk vaccine should also go on unabated. The disease continues to stalk, and continues to find its victims, mostly among those who have not been vaccinated. It is foolish for anyone to take the chance of going unguarded when the protection of the vaccine is readily at hand. It is especially important that children have this protection, tor they have most to lose, in terms Of blighted years, if strikes. I he news of a refinement in vaccine is wonderful.

But wait for it. Polio Tuesday.
