FREAK ACCIDENT on Highway 70 Monday night left this piece of metal lodged into the door of the Orange County ABC system office. It seems, the transmission on a big transfer truck exploded just as it passed the ABC building and metal slabs such a the above were scattered in all directions. This one ricocheted into the door from 125 feet away. Detpito Law Making Shots Compulsory . Supply Of Free Polio Vaccine Very Limited Dr. O. David Garvin, District [lth Director ot Orange-Ptw>n i»tham-Lee counties this week, explained the_ncw state law rela tive to poliomyelitis vaccine and the strict limitations under which the Health Department must oper ate. i Ordinarily Health Departments do give vaccines that are furnished to them by the State Board of Health or purchased by some local organizations or voluntary agen cies, but due to limited allocation, of funds only a minimal amount of poliomyelitis vaccine is now avail able. The new law requires that all children two. months of age to m\ years, or before time of entrance into school, must be immunized against poliomyelitis. A certificate of immunization must be presented at the timet of registration for school entrance It also states that children must be taken by a re sponsible person to a practicing physician-- dor vaccination. The law authorized allocation of money by the Council of State from the Contingency and Emer gency.fund for the purchase of Lanier Gets Mixed Reaction On MH-30 Bill armers from a four-county area at Aycock School in Orange nty Saturday night at invitation Sen.

Dr. Garvin stale that restricted use must be made of the vaccine by Health Department or the pur pnse_of- the law will be defeated and those of limited mea'ns need ing vaccine will be loft without it. He said that there is no vaccine available through the -Health- De partment for older children (over fi or school entrance), adults or ex pectant_mothers. There are no funds locally available for'purchase of vaccine. T7" Garvin stated further that all pa rents bringing children to the Health Department will of necessi ty be asked about ability to pay for the services of a physician. NO NEWS YET Speculation* continues active in the community regarding the use to be made of the large tract of land at the east end of King Street in Hillsboro. Fred Cates, ; who cleared and levelled the site, said prospects for obtain ing a new business for the com munity looked bright, but noth ing definite yet can be an nounced. Um stead Report* . 'mb ■-Mi Bill Alters Procedures By J. W. UMSTEAD JR. For the readers of THE NEWS the question of appropriations t* without doubt the most important news out of Raleigh during the past week. So far as the University ft Chapel Hill is concerted the re quest for additional salary con cerns two groups; one of these being the professional and, in structional personnel who do not come under the Personnel Act. For those coming under the Personnel Act the sub-committee on Appropriations on Friday vot ed to recommend to the big com mittee a salary increase of one increment; this means that the personnel will receive a salary increase of a minimum of $7.00 per month and a maximum of $25.00 per month, depending upon their present salaries. For those in the instructional .and .professional classification the additional appropriation' was giv en to the Greater University for allocation to the three institutions concerned. This follows the same line as that followed two years ago and gives the administration the right to use the funds with some degree of flexibility. The amount of money involved irt-the increase for the three in stitutions is four million three hundred and ninety nine thousand dollars more than was recom mended by the Budget Commiss ion. Although this amount is some six hundred thousand dollars less than was requested by the Great er University Administration in therr final request those of us most interested feel that the three institutions can maintain that standing and render even improved services with the above amount which was approved by the sub-committee. The Bill carrying the amount to be recommended fbr perman ent improvements will be taken up Monday night at 8 o’clock with the hope that the Bill may be ap proved or changed at that session of the committee. The average person knows very little about the hard work required of —a- Sub committee on Appropriations. For the past four weeks the members of this committee have worked in the afternoons from 2 to 5 hours per day on Tuesday. Wednesday and Thursday. This is in addition to attending other, committee meetings in the morning an the regular session of the 'House at noon. This is the 6th time that 1 have served on the Sub-Commit tee on Appropriations and the problems confronting the commit tee were more complex -than ever before. As a matter of fact it was felt necessary to appoint Sub-sub committees to handle several items in the Appropriations Bill. The consensus of opinion on Fri day was that the Committee had done a job that should be approv ed by the full committee. Another question of prime im portance considered during the week by the Finance Committee of both the House and Senate was the Withholding Tax.
