The repor; of the new vaccine was made by Dr. Howard A. Howe of the Johns Hopkins Poliomyelitis Laboratory at the opening session of the American Health association here.

Howe's report said the tests had been performed on six Baltimore children. In all said, the children developed vaccine itself could not cause the antibody or immunity levels to disease, he said, but tests showed Lansing, Leon and Brumhilde that "dead" virus stimulated the types of polio.

Howe said. Antibodies Prevent Disease Antibodies are substances produced by the body to fight infection, Their continued presence in the blood in sufficient quantities prevents the disease from spreading.

The major obstacle in preventing infantile paralysis has been development of vaccines to achieve this similar to those already in use against measles and other diseases. Howe said the vaccine he used was prepared from polio virus if ir Screaming Chinese Reds Slash At UN Lines Fierce Attacks Are Halted By Allied Troops Communists Given Heavy Support By Artillery, Rockets By STAN CARTER SEOUL, Korea iffi Hordes of screaming Chinese Reds charged recklessly through their own artillery fire Sunday and early today but failed in an attempt to recapture two important Central Front hills.

"In San Antonio the other night, he spoke to more than 25,000 people in Alamo Plaza," Speaker Rayburn declared. "It was the biggest crowd I ever saw outside of an inauguration." He said Stevenson drew more people in his visit to the state than Eisenhower, with the exception of Houston.

"But Eisenhower ought to draw more people," he said. "He comes as a national military hero and a lot of people came out just to see what he looks like."

But it added that a reduction in livestock in make the feed supply per animal about equal to that of the 1951-52 feeding Nation-Wide Shutdown Of Industry Near More Than Half Of Diggers Out After WSB Cuts Pay Hike PITTSBURGH, Oct.

20 (ffl-More than half the country's 375,000 soft coal miners'refused to work today as a protest against the government-ordered cut in the $1.90 daily wage boost they recently won from the industry. Come-to-work whistles were ig-. nored by 67,000 miners in Western and Central Pennsylvania alone. These diggers joined the 160,000 miners who refused to work last week across the nation while the Wage Stabilization Board was debating approval of the pay hike for miners formerly earning basic minimum daily wage of $16.35. Most Is Approved After the WSB approved $1.50 of the pay increase, bringing the new basic daily wage to $17.85, more miners joined their idle fellow workers.

Now at least 227,000 are staying away from work, including 30,000 in Kentucky, 12,000 in Ohio, 8,500 in Indiana, 17,000 in Illinois and 700 in Oklahoma. The walkout came at a time when coal stocks are at a near record high. The estimated 85 lion tons of stored coal is the biggest stockpile in history except for 1942 when the supply of coal above ground was around 100 million tons. Ample supplies mean that industry and householders won't feel a coal shortage for two months or more. Contract Nullified Most miners said they considered the WSB action as nullifying their contract Members of the United Mine Workers traditionally won't work without a.

contract. First positive signs of the walkout appeared in West Virginia when 1,700 miners i'ailed to report for work on midnight shifts at the Grant Town No. 3 Mine of Ea tern Gas and Fuel Association, and the Owings and JUversville Mines of Consolidation Coal Company of West Virginia.
