...administer, immunizes swiftly, protects thoroughly, and provides "hear-immunity." It is for these reasons that Brazil changed from Salk to Sabin vaccine when the U.S. made the latter available.

Ceylon, Japan, Czechoslovakia, and other nations have bought vaccines from both the U.S. and the U.S.S.R., and as Dr. Sabin testified before Congress, the "live" vs. "dead" dispute "has entered into the field of competition for favor in uncommitted nations."

In India 65 million cups of Brooke Bond tea are downed daily, and in tea-rich Ceylon, housewives increasingly pass up home-grown bulk tea for Brooke Bond "packets."
