Saik Vaccine Rejected By 5British As Too Dangerous

By JACK GBEAVES

LONDON (Reuters)-Britain has rejected the American Salk inti- polio vaccine is its present fora: as being too dangerous am. has cancelled plans for trying it out.

The decision of the British Med- ical Research Council was an- nounced Friday by Dr. G-.S. Wil- son. director of the Public Health Laboratory Service. He was speak- ing at a luncheon of the National Fund for Poliomyelitis Research.

Wilson said Britain is exper- imenting now. trying to find a safer formula. but added: ”I don't think the search for a polio vac- cine is likely to be a short one.”

MAY NEVER BE !AFE'

He said there is a question whether it will ever be possible to make a vaccine of the Salk Type quite safe.” . The government health ministry had decided last month to postpone trials of the Salk vaccine. but today Wilson declared:

"I think it only right to tell you now that the right word is can- celled. We do not feel Justified in carrying out in this country tests on the Salk vaccine as it is at present.

"There are many things about the Salk vaccine which we don't like."

He described events leading up to the inoculation of 5,000,000 American children with the- Salk formula. Of the 100 youngsters who developed pars'ysis later, it seemed probable that 60 to 80 con- tracted ti as a direct result of the inoculation. he said.

GREAT SHOCK

"This came as a great shock to the world. but those who real- ized many of the inherent defects oi the Salk vaccine which had been glossed over, were not wholly surprised."

He said one of the great difficul- ties in vaccine of the Salk type is to be certain scientifically of destroying the bacteria or virus

Death of Well Known Lower Montague Man

..'Friends and neighbors were Ihocked yesterday to hear of thc death of Mr. Alexander Campbei at his home in Lower Montsgui in his 88th year following a short illness.

The late Mr. Campbell was born in Lower Montague. the son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Alex Camp- bell. He was the last surviving member of a family of seven.

He leaves to mourn his sorrow- ing widow. nee Nellie Acorn of Gaspercaux. '

The late Mr. Campbell followed in his father's footsteps and tool charge of the large farm whicl be operated successfully through out his long life. He was a faithful and active member of his church. and throughout his life made a host of friends who will not easii' forget his delightful easy manne' his ioviaiity and his kindness. Hi. delight when in Montague was to talk not only with those of his own age but with those men of younger ears. all of whom were only too appy to spend time with Mr Campbell. a gifted conversation-

by such a substance as formal- dehyde. and that there is a narrow range of safety between ineffec- tivanass and danger.

"It is very difficult to avoid the conclusion that formaldehyde can- not be relied on in practise to des- troy completely the virus and that the human child is more suscep- tiblethansnytsstwchavsinths laboratory."

WILL BE DONG IIAICI

The medical expert said it is the consensus not only in Britain but. he believes. in the United State! as well that a vaccine prepared. of living attenuated virus would be more likely to fulfil anti-polio u:qI.liT'ElTlOI1Yl than a dead virus. There were strains of virus which would do that. but it woud he a long search. possibly a matter of years.

"We are hoping to modify the Salk vaccine in such a way that
