EQUITABLE DISTRIBUTION
OF NATIONS WEALTH

EQUITABLE DISTRIBUTION
OF NATIONS WEALTH
WITHIN THE PAST 40 years men
employed in factories making wag-
ons and carriages have seen their
jobs disappear. The invention and
development of the automobile was
responsible for that. Within the past
Is years men who laboriously pro-
duced automobiles one at time
have seen their jobs disappear.
Mass production did that.
Today several times the number
of men who were employed at maxi
ing wagons and carriages, or many
times the number employed at max
ing automobiles one at a time, were
employed at the mass production of
automobiles until the government
stopped the manufacture of cars.
Invention of the automobile, or the
machines that made its mass pro-
duction possible, increased employ
ment, made more jobs.
But it did more than that. In the
days of wagons and carriages not
more than one out Of each 20 people
owned a wagon or carriage. To-
day there is an automobile for one
out of each four people in this coun-
try.
The invention of the automobile
and cheaper methods Of producing it
created more national wealth and
made more equitable distribution
Of that increased wealth possible.
To do that there had to be great fac
tories, financed by the combined in
vestments of many thousands of peo-
pie, and managed by men who know
how.
SELF-CENTERED LOT
WE HUMANS are sef-centered
lot of individuals. Each thinks of
himself as being Of importance to
the other fellow, but not Of the
other fellow as being Of importance
to him. We do not accept respon-
sibility for any failure, but acclaim
what success we may achieve. We
are prone to monopolize any con-
versation with details of our own
small affairs. We resent the other
fellow talking about himself. It
might be a more interesting world
If we could each put ourselves in
our own proper niche, but we cam
not, or will not, do that.

Workers Contributions

In Chicago 1000 employees Of a
large mail order house donated one
pint of blood each within a week.
On the West Coast 40, 900 members
Of one of the major labor unions
pledged donations and 507 were
bled in one day.
The A. F. Of L. and the c. /. o.
both have blood donors honor
rolls issued to all local unions and
central centers where Red Cross
blood banks have been established.
Already the Red Cross has exceed
ed the $4,000 pints of blood re-
quested for delivery by June 3Oth,
last.
The Red Cross Centers have 10
be located in cities where there are
processing laboratories to prepare
the blood after 1t has been taken
from the donors arm. The Red
Cross assures US that as laboratory
capacity increases additional Cen
tiers will be added and nearly all
of US who wish to can participate
in these patriotic donations.
The new quotas require a total
of $4,000 bleedings a week. The
project naturally, in assuming
such proportions, requires a very
considerable organization. The
Blood Donor Service is an assem-
bly-line, mass-production job re-
curing the highest degree Of con-
troll and supervision.
More Donors Needed
The blood plasma, after being
prepared, is sent TO various Cen
tiers which are regarded as target
areas so that it will be available
Immediately in case of emergency.
The needs Of the Armed Forces, of
course, come first and back-logs of
blood plasma are being accumu-
lated in the great centers where
Army and Navy activity are great
est and where there is likely to be
the most activity. But it is planned
TO enlarge the facilities so that
civilian casualties may benefit
from this also. Up to the present
time civilian casualties from war
activity have practically been nil,
but in England the use of blood
plasma banks has been available
for civilians as well as the soldiers.
No doctor questions the great
advance which has been made in
the treatment of injury and shock
due TO injury by having available
these blood plasma banks, and it is
to be hoped that everyone will feel
moved TO offer his services for this
patriotic work.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
P. Ms a diabetic allowed to
marry in Pennsylvania and if 50,
would it be injurious to his off,
spring in any way? Would a dia-
bette be able to do hard work and
is a male diabetic eligible for the
United States Army?
Answer: Many diabetes have
married and brought up families
which have not been injured by
the fact that either the father or
the mother had diabetes. | do not
believe there is any law in Penn
sylvania which would prevent a
diabetic from marrying. With
modern treatment diabetes can do
hard work but they are not eligible
