BY BEN SHEK
W&rsaw. — Canada marched, cheerr
ed and sang here w i t h bne hundred
other natlons at the grand opening,
J u l y 31, of the F i f t h World Youth
F e s t i v a l for Peace and Priendship: A
m i l l l o n a n d a h a l f people thronged the
streets to witness the marching of the
various delegatlons to the stadium.
F r o m , 50 young Canadians came the!
r i n g i n g cheers. " L o n g live Poland, long
l i v e peace!" And the Polish people
replied "Long live Canada^ peace for-ever."
M a r c h i n g ten abreast i n smart
green and v h i t e uniforms, our repre-sentatives
responded brUliantly to a
c i t y decked with the flags of many
lands. Canada*s emblem was held
alof t as the delegates entered the sta-d
i i m i , f i l l e d with an överflow crowd
of 100,000.
F r om four corners of the World they
came, these 30,000 youth, sportsmeri,
dance groups. students, workers, dres-sed
i n national costumes. The sta­d
i um was a sea of color and the sun
shoiie b r i l l i a n t l y . When the youth
o f the U . S. and o f the U S S R met in
fond embrace, throughout the vast
arena, youth of the world expressed
t h e i r d e s i r e t o keep for a l i time the
friendship that blossomed this great
day. Borne by their delegatlons the
flags of the B i g F i v e countries were
raised side by side. Warm]y greeted by
a l i was the Joint delegation from East
and West G ^ m a n y ; they formed one
delegation from one country.
F r o m Austria, whose recent peace
t r e a ty ended 17 years of war, the
young delegates proclaimed on their
signs: "The youth of neutral Austria
greet the youth of the world."
OURJOURNEY
I n our Journey across the ocean and
Europe, we became "Ambassadors at
Large" of our country. Aboard our
ship; " T h e Homeric". we danced, t a l k -
ed and sang w l t h a U , and became
known as the Festival group. A t the
ship's concert, we performed the h l s -
torical.pageant of Canada which vre
are presenting here at the-Festival. I n
token of appreciatlop, we were pre-ssnted
with gifts.
At Le Havre, France, we met w l th
French youth and dock workers and
expressed together our w l l l for peace
and friendship for a l i races and a li
countries. In our three-day stopover
i n Paris, we endeavored to take I n as
much of this historic c i t y as posslble.
. O u r delegation was met at Cheb on
the Czech: border by Inhabitants with
joyous enthusiasm and presentatlons
of flovvers, drink and; food. A n ex­change
of friendship pins was foUow-ed
with dancing to a brass baud.
Throughout our crosing o f Czechoslo,-
vakia, many acqualntances were made
especially witt( the young people'sor-ganization.
In Prague, this organlza-t
i o n honored the delegates w i t h a
banquet, and a tour of their city.
A t tne Polish town of Zebrzydowics,
young pioneers danced and sang w l th
delegates.
At 5 p.m. on the 27th of J u l y , our
delegation arrived i n the vondrous
c i t y . of Warsaw. Again there were
thunderous receptions a n d ceremonies.
We kept busy with. tours, concerts
and informal meetings w l t h other de­legatlons,
and polishing up our num-bers
for the three national and four
international concerts we are giving,
and for the numerous c u l t u r ^ l compe-titions.
In the girls' residence of a
secondary School, we are comfortably
settled with the A u s t r a l i a n anfl New
Zealand delegatlons. T h e food Is more
t h a n plentifui, and everyone Is well
and happy.

Polio Vaccine - How it Works
There a r e still some who question
use of the S a l k vaccine, basing their
doubts on the tragic developments
that followed release of the Cutter
Lab-produced batches i n the U . S.
Others mistakenly take the view that
once a c h i l d gets.a single inoculation
he Is 100 percent protected. Others
c l a lm for the vaccine 100 percent re-sults
even after the fuU inoculation
series are carried through — some-t
h i n g D r . S a l k ' s report never asserted.
Best and sanest account we have
seen recently was a s t o r y out of W a ­shington's
United Press Office, It
tells how the vaccine works. Here i t i s : '
Parents can be absolutely certain
some children who have been vac-cinated
w i t h the S a l k anti-polio vac­cine
w i l l be coming down with polio
a l i summer long.
T h i s won't mean that the vaccine
f a i l ed to protect them from polio or
that the vaccine gave them polio. Jt
has to happen because of the way po­lio
virusesbehave inside the human
body and the way the body's " i m m u -
hlological chemistry" behaves.
Viruses iget into the body usually
thi-ough the mouth. Before anything
can h ä p p e n the viruses must m u l t i p ly
their humbers many fold.
T h a t m u l t i p l y i n g usually goes on in
t h e g a s t r o - i n t e s t i n a l tract. T h e time t i
takes is called the "incubation period.'
I t is usually 10 or 14 days.
Suppose a child has polio viruses
incubating in him. The doctor with
the vaccinating needle can't teli be­cause
the viruses are not yet In suf-ficient
numbers to produce any eign
of illness. Nor c a n the vaccine get hls
immuniological chemistry functioning
i n high gear soon enough to protect
h im from the viruses being Incubated.
The reason i t can't Is that It doesn't
work that fast i n response to any vac­cine.
The Immunioliglcal chemistry
of the body is that ,part o f the blobd-making
and blood-maintaining che­mistry
which produces and keeps in
the blood stream the tiny partlcles
called.anti-bodies whlch maflce us i m -
niune to Infectious 'diseases from
which we have recovered.
The purpose of a vaccine Is to do
the same thing as the Illness would
have — but without any of the risks
of the illness. It, too, stimulates this
chemistry into producing enough po-tent
and lasting anti-bodies to protect
the body from attack by disease-cau-sing
virus.
But the f irst "shot" of S a l k a n t i - p o ­lio
vaccine produces comparatlvely few
anti-bodies. It maihly "sets up" the
immuniological chemistry, as a fac-tory
is tooled up. T h e second "shot"
of vaccine gets the tooled-up factory
into Production. This production
mounts steadily toward a peak which
takes ä t l e a s t several weeks a n d may
take longer.
R e t u r n i n g to the viruses incubating
secretly i n the child who has received
the f irst "shot" of the S a l k vaccine —
they haven't been touched because
they are not yet i n the blood stream.

T h e more conslatently warm the

The closer to the'.^'season" t h a t c h i l ­dren

group of people from L i n c o l n . Neb„
came to meet them. A retired grocer,
V. G. Strashelm. brought hls Ihree-year
old.grandson "to meet the Rus­sians."
After Strashelm talked to
some of the delegates, he expreiued
his interest i n vi.siting the USSR.
"There are five times as many
Amerlcans tourlng the Soviet Union
as there are Russians vlsiting here,"
he declared. "We had been led to
believe that you couldn't get Into
the USSR."
At the university, there wa8 a re-ceptlon
for the Soviet group by M r a
W: V. Lambert, the wlfe of the Dean
of the Agricultural College of the U .
of N . . who Is the head of the American
f a rm delegation now i n the Soviet
Union.
The Soviet delegation expressed In­terest
In the unlverslty'8 tractor-t
e s t l n g ' s t a t l o n which makes reports
on every model sold i n the state. A
young engineer Alvin Brehl, told
newsmen that the exchange of dele­gatlons
was "a olep toward an under-standlng
of common problems" be-tween
the American and the Soviet
peoplfcS.
" I believe that dlplomats can gö
only SO far In brlnglng about better
relatlons." he .said, "from that polnt,
the common people have to take
over."
lAs the group headed toward South
Dakota; they were cxtended many In-vltatlons
from farmers who wanted
them to vlslt their farnus.
One of them. Henry Hoppe of Co-lumbus.
Neb., talked to thla reporter
at length about "the liberal tradition
of Old Senator George N o r r l s " whlch
typlfled the deep deslre of Nebraska
f a r m e r » for peaceful interchangc
among natlons,
" I have no use for prejudice he­tkeen
nelghbors or between natlons."
declared Hoppe.
Following the vlslts through the
South Dakota wheat country, the
tourlng group wa3 slated to «pend
four or five.days i n Mlnnerota, They
then go into Chicago and make shört

their final few days i n this country,
One of the main exhlblts o f the Ne­braska
vlslt centered on Irrlgatlon of
corn fields. The over-100 degree heat
here during the laoft week helghtened
the Interest i n the methods by v/hlch

this way," «he said.
Jjater, the group observed ditch
