Julius E. Hilgard, state chairman of the 1954 March of Dimes, says the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis budget for gamma globulin in 1954 exceeds 1953 by more than three and a half times. Gamma globulin helped immunize 7058 children in Custer and Park counties amid polio fears, but is a stop-gap toward a permanent vaccine.

U S Turkey Crop Boost Foreseen
Helena Montana The agricultural marketing service of the U S department of agriculture forecasts a seven percent national increase in turkey production for 1954 over 1953. Montana farmers expect a four percent drop from 1953 if current intentions hold, with 109000 bronze and other heavy breeds raised, a three percent rise. Beltsville White and other light breeds show a sharp decline, while a profitable 1953 season and favorable price and feed relations support the national rise.
