Norton, North Carolina state health officer, issued the fol lowing statement: “No one needs interrupt plans for a summer vacation in North Carolina. "Incidence of polio is abnormal in only a relatively small area surrounding the cities of Lenoir and Hickory and including three counties. In this area all agencies dedicated to combatting polio are working vigorously with all possi ble measures including inoculations with gamma globulin. Sixty-seven cases have been diagnosed in this 3-county area during July. In the epidemic area there have been 167 cases reported since the first of January, with six deaths during the entire year to date (July 17). “In all the other 97 North Caro lina counties, which embrace its major mountain and coastal re sorts, only 120 cases have been reported for the entire year, or approximately three per 100,000 population. “National medical authorities do not consider polio is approaching epidemic proportion until the num ber of cases reaches 20 to 40 per 100,000 population. “North Carolina’s resorts, as semblies and summer camps are; protected by rigid sanitary 'laws, and are under strict health inspec tion at all times. “Ninety-seven of the 100 coun ties in North Carolina are polio free or have an incidence that is normal or below. “There is nothing about the po lio situation in North Carolina which should interfere with vaca tion travel except into the small epidemic area, and it is hoped that preventive measures now under way will clear this area within a short time. “These are the facts about polio in North Carolina.” Dr. Norton said that he was issuing this bulletin to provide newspapers and radio stations with current and correct information to assist them in handling polio re ports in proper perspective. He said he realized that great injus tice could be done not only to North Carolina’s tourist industry, but to vacationists themselves if they were deterred from holiday travel to North Carolina resort areas because of misinterpretation of reports regarding prevalence of polio.

The 8,000-mile Southern is now the largest railway system in the country to be 100 per cent Dieselized. We’ve “pulled the fire” on our last steam locomotive. In effect, this fire was started back in 1830—when history-making “Best Friend of Charleston,” on a railroad that is now part of the Southern Railway System, became the first steam locomotive to run in regularly scheduled service in America. Down through the years since 1830, the colorful steam locomotives paced the progress of the South, serving well until they, too, had to step aside for progress. Today we are serving the South with a fleet of 880 powerful Diesel locomotive units costing $123% million. This huge sum — which we will be “paying off” for years to come—marks our faith in the future of the South, and underscores our deterroination to bring to all in the South a great new kind of railroading—modern, streamlined, better than ever.
