Timing Of Farm Bill May Be Key Factor In Election
Timing of new farm legislation could shape the 1960 election as Democrats push price supports while Republicans bank on soil bank payments up to 1.2 billion dollars. Senate approved a soil bank measure though House proposals differ and a quick compromise seems unlikely before the April 15 deadline. If acted late, the president could veto after planting, shifting blame to Congress for delaying farm aid.

Year Of Use Proves Salk Serum Safe
ANN ARBOR Mich The evaluator of the Salk polio vaccine Dr Thomas Francis Jr says a year of widespread use proves the vaccine safe potent and effective. He cites records showing paralytic polio is 2 to 10 times higher among those not vaccinated. He notes earlier setbacks were due to potency variations and preservative issues.
