Polio Tri

umph

By MORDEN LAZARUS

Canadians haven’t been taking enough credit for their
part in the development of polio vaccine.
I’m not trying to belittle the great work of Dr. Salk.

But a few Canadians made
Dr. Salk’s work might have

Take the matter of “Mixture
No. 199”.

Canadian scientists discovered
“Mixture No. 199”. It was the use
of this substance which enabled
other scientists to go ahead with
the discovery of a polio vaccine.

Polio Research

Polio research has been under-
way for at least 50 years. In 1908
it was found that polio was
caused by a virus. (A virus is a
poison in the human or animal
system). By injecting the virus
in a monkey, the monkey would
develop polio, and, for 30 years,
this was the only way to show
that polio virus was present in a
stricken person (that is, virus was
taken from the person, injected
into a monkey, and, if the mon-
key developed polio, it was evi-
dence of the presence of the virus
in the human).

About 25 years ago, scientists
learned how to protect monkeys
against polio by means of a vac-

,cine, but the world had to wait

until recent years for a practical
way to be found to make a safe
vaccine in large quantities.
Connaught Lab.
One key to the method of mak-

contributions without which
been long delayed.

ing quantities safely was due to
research work at the Connaught
Laboratory at the University of
Toronto.

Here three doctors, Morgan,
Morton and Parker, were trying
to find a chemical substance to
support the growth of tissue cells
outside of the animal (or human)
body. They were doing this work
as part of a cancer research pro-
gram.

In 1950 the doctors announced
the discovery of “Mixture No.
199”, made from over 60 chemi-
cals. Then two years later, the
Virus Research Dept, at the Hos-
pital for Sick Children found that
this mixture could be used to
grow polio virus in tissue cul-
tures. *

Next Step

The next’ step was the use of
this mixture by doctors working
in the U.S. Foundation for In-
fantile Paralysis. They used it
successfully to mass -produce
polio viruses of all three types.

And to this day, the safest
polio vaccine is turned out in the
Connaught, and other public lab-
oratories in Canada, for use in
Canada and other countries.

BAN

WINDSOR (CPA) — The
United Auto Workers (CIO-
CCL) has cancelled its annual
golf tournament, planned for
the Leamington Golf Club, be-
cause club officials banned four
Negro union members from De-
troit who wanted to play a
practice round on the club’s
course.

Negroes have played in the
union tourney in previous years
at the Leamington Club but the
club professional, John Moffatt,
said that Negroes had not had
pre-tournament practice on the
course before. Discrimination is
believed to be common among
semi-private clubs in the area.

Announcing cancelation of the
tournament, UAW Recreation
Director Olga Madar noted that
it was in line with the UAW’s
“long-standing policy of not deal-
ing with persons or organizations
who discriminate because of race,
color or creed”. She expressed
surprise at finding discrimination
against Negroes in Canada, stat-
ing that it was fairly common in
Detroit.

Men still die with their boots
on. However, today one of ’em is
usually on the accelerator.

Benefits

TEL AVIV (CPA)—Not only
holidays with pay but, in addi-
tion, paid holidays are avail-
able under a recent agreement
signed between the Civil Ser-
vice Commission of Israel and
teachers which will have the en-
tire cost of 5 days’ stay at a
rest home paid by the govern-
ment so long as the employees
spend at ledst one week of their
annual leave there.

Contributions towards holiday
expenses have been secured by
workers in a number of industries
during the last few years but
this is the first comprehensive
agreement covering government
workers. ‘

A rest home for civil servants,
established jointly by the union
and the government, was opened
by Prime Minister Sharrett re-
cently. It accommodates '90 peo-
ple and will be uséd as an educa-
tional centre during the winter
when it is not in use as a holiday
resort.

WASHINGTON (CPA)—The first year’s operations of the
no-raid pact between the American Federation of Labor and
the Congress of Industrial Organizations show the agreement
to have been a resounding Success.

During the year only 46 grievances were raised of which
about thirty were settled by mutual’ discussion. The pact lays
down that in the event of a deadlock the services of the im-
