LOO New Workers Sell
Blood at $35 a Pint

NEW YORK Q.N.sO.-Life
may be real and earnest or what
you make it, but to a peace-time
army Of LOO men blood donors
here, it is worth exactly $35 q
pint.
Hardy lads, they are selling
their life blood at a price for
which the prerepeal players bought
a bottle of champagne.
On tap night and day, their
blood is always available for
ergency transfuSions, and
while it is credited with saving
lives, they themselves rarely get
into print.
They might be called unsung
heroes, depending upon the point
of view.
But they aren't professional
blood donors. That chap went
out with the horse car. At the
present rate of exchange, blood
donors can make only about $40
every three onths-or not
enough for a living.
