Firefighters Save Town In Path Os Fire Forest Fire Moves Within Fjve Miles Os California Town SAN FRANCISCO (INS) — A wind fanned fire in Klamath national forest flashed to within five miles of the city of Yreka in northern California early today but firefighters turned the blase aside. The Klamath fire was only one of more than 20 which have charred more than 85.000 acres of brush and timber land in the state over the past few days. The blase jumped a ridge about midnight and swept along a 10 mile front toward Yreka, a town of 4,000 persons, 20 miles south of the Oregon border, but a few hours later was stemmed. A highway patrol officer said ihe town was showered with white ashes "like a snowstorm.” When the blase approached the community, residents were ordered to stand by their homes with garden hoses and fire chief Bernard Pollard ordered night long patrols to quell any fires within Yreka. Some 1,600 men were on the fire lines in the forest working throughout the night. U. S. forest service officials estimated that 40,000,000 board feet of timber had been burned as the fire swept over 30,000 acres. It was completely out of control except on the north side. A second major blaze burned over 15,000 acres in Sequoia national forest in central California, threatening the famed General Grant grove of giant redwood trees. • The General Grant tree, a 3,000-year-old specimen, was among those endangered. Two other fires were burning out of control in Klamath national forest, and four major blazes spread over 20,000 acres in nearby Humbolt county. Flames in Six Rivers national forest sent up smoke so dense that tower lookouts were unable to keep track of new fires and helicopters were pressed into duty to hunt down blazes started by lightning.

There may be places where the trip will have to be deferred for a tew days, but commercial distribution of Salk polio vaccine is underway on a large scale for the first time since the announcement April 12 that such a product had been developed. A spokesman for Eli Lilly & Company, of Indianapolis, which now is shipping commercially for the first time, said the movement of 4.156.000 shots of_vaccine to family physicians, via their local pharmacies, began Tuesday night and will be completed "in seven to 10 days.” Vaccine released for commercial shipment must go to all 48 states, the U. S. territories and the U. S. defense department under an allocation system set up by federal health authorities, and based on population. Wyeth Laboratories, of Marietta, Pa., began shipping a week ago on the same allocation plan from a cleared supply of 1,177,068 cubic centimeters. The supplies of the two companies, totaling more than five million, are to be augmented by additional releases of vaccine from these and four other pharmaceutical houses manufacturing the vaccine. The bul k of previous product ion of the vaccine went also within the most vulnerable age group of 5-9; First and second grade children and those who aided in field tests proving the vaccine’s validity received the earlier shots under a National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis program, how nearing completion.

Issue On Axle Mile fax Growing Hotter Michigan Joins In Warning For Ohio COLUMBUS (INS) — The situation on Ohio’s badgered but not beaten axle mile tax grew hotter today. Michigan joined Illinois in officially notifying the state that "if the present reciprocity agreement la terminated by your action, we would have no legal bails for continuing reciprocity on license plates, etc., aa you propose, for it would be necessary to negotiate a new agreement pursuant to the language of our reciprocity act." In other words, unless Ohio and Michigan — and Illinois — come to some type of reciprocity agreement by Thursday, the date the old agreement expires, Ohioans would have to buy Michigan 11cense plates to travel in that state. Ohio cancelled the old reciprocity agreement after courts ruled that under its terms, this state could not collect the axle mile tax from out of state truckers. However, the state said that it would continue to recognise the terms of the agreement (reciprocal license plate recognition, etc.) even though no formal agreement existed. Ohio wants to negotiate new reciprocity agreements with the other states under which out of staters would be exempt from all but the axle mile tax. Last Tuesday, Illinois reciprocity board chairman William B. Westbrook told a gathering of representatives from various states meeting in Chicago to discuss the issue that “no vheicle owned by an Ohio resident, passenger or truck, will be allowed to enter Illinois without paying the Illinois license fee" if Ohio cancelled reciprocity agreements. As a result of the Michigan announcement Tuesday, Goternor Lausche called members of Ohio's three member reciprocity board into a hurried breakfast consultation this morning. The Michigan notice, sent to the Ohio reciprocity board Tuesday, said that Michigan “assumes you do not fully comprehend the consequences of your notice of termination.” It added: V "Your claimed intention of ’maintaining reciprocity obviously does not recognize, as we do, that the Ohio mileage tax is reciprocal. Since our contention was supported by the majority opinion adopted by your sapreme -ceuct, we firmly insist upon the validity of our position and, herewith, reaffirm the previous action of the Michigan reciprocity board taken Oct. 25, 1954 (date the reciprocity agreements were drawn up.)*’ The notice closed by cautioning: •‘Being mindful of the dire consequences which you will automatically invoke by cancellation of our agreement and those with your other reciprocity states, we urge you to reconsider.” Meanwhile, 14 trucking companies from Ohio and Michigan were slated to seek a Franklin county common pleas court order today in an effort to stop the state from cancelling reciprocity agreements wheih exempt .trucks of 20 states from the axle mile tax. The lawsuits claim that the cancellation would cause "irreparable damage" to the trucking firms. Today's hearing will be on the trucking companies’ request for a temporary injunction. If they succeed, it is believed that they will seek a permanent injunction. Man Arrested For Public Intoxication One arrest was made by city police Tuesday. Ophie H. Davis, Harrlsburgh, W. Va.. was arrested for public intoxication The arrest was made on Monroe street and Davis was confined to the Adams county jail to await trial today in mayor's court.
