WARTIME HEALTH COLUMN Blood Donations Make Serum, Banks, Plasma To Save Lives

served for three years, or dried to a powder and reconstructed by the ad- dition of distilled water after pe- riod as long as five years.
 Plasma or serum may be used without typing, which makes them instantly available. In the treat ment of shock, the emergency may be so great that minutes are preci- ous. The advantage inherent in having a stock on hand is, there fore, obvious In shock due to in- jury or burns, the blood cells are not lost from the body, but are stag nant within the circulatory system. The addition of plasma or serum ill sufficient quantity may be thought of as refloating the cells.
 Another use for blood takes ad- vantage of the immune substances built up in the blood of those who have recovered from certain diseas- es. The transmission of blood or se- rum from those who have recently recovered from measles, scarlet fever and infantile paralysis, enhances the recipients immunity.

 SERUM CONFERS IMMUNITY
 Convalescent serum Is not always available, but it has been found that considerable degree of i'm munity is conferred by the use of pooled serum obtained from many adults. especially If they are city dwellers. The natural immunity or that developed by unrecognized in- lection makes this blood about g per cent as effective as convalescent blood. and the greater supply makes 1t possible to give greater volume.
 Many aspects of this problem of blood transmission remain to be ex- plored, and many additional uses for blood will probably be developed in the future. In hemorrhage, shock, plasma, or serum is dramatic in its life-saving qualities, and under these conditions, there is no substitute.

not be given indiscriminately from one person to another. The donor must be healthy and his blood must be of a suitable type. Drawing the blood from the donor, matching it with the recipients and check ing the Kahn or Wassermann re- action, takes considerable time and are unsuitable in emergencies.
 With the development of blood banks, the time element is par tially overcome, because the blood is drawn and tested in advance of the need and may be kept under refrigeration for many days. But compatibility tests must be done af- ter the emergency arises. In cases of severe hemorrhage, in which there is an actual loss of blood-cells from the body, whole blood is desirable.
 VALUE OF BLOOD PLASMA
 The difficulties mentioned above, and the further obstacle of trans porting whole blood has led to the widespread use of blood plasma, which is the liquid portion of the blood kept from clotting by an an- ticoagulant, after the cellular struc- lures have been removed.
 Blood serum is the fluid portion of the blood that remains after clot- ting has occurred. The two may be used interchangeably. They may be kept for a year, or frozen and pre-

Top billing is given to the fur lined coat in this years all-star lineup of fall coat fashions.
 in a season when extreme simpli- city spells ultra smartness, and ex- tra dollars are going into war bonds instead of into extravagances, the casual coat with its between-seasons look and warm -as-toaSt fur lining is a smart investment.
 And it has budget-appeal aplenty, for 1t comes in never-ending va riety of fabrics and furs which range in price from as little as $50 up to as much as a fur coat with cloth lining would cost.

Los Angeles (UP) The meat shortage has hit hard Red and Spot, two docile old bears that have been city pets for the past 10 years.

Liter they were turned loose in the mountains, where one of their mates died. Red and Spot returned othe county farm where they are inmate friends of all the inmates, but the bears have no meat coupons and the inmates little meat to share win them.

Bugs in New Tires,
Eastman Declares
By the Associated Press.

Es the Associated Press.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Sept. 10
Motor freight carriers were told YES
terday by Joseph B. Eastman, di-
rector of the Office of Defense
Transportation, that there are bugs"
IN connection with the use of syn-
thetic rubber in heavy-duty truck
tires.
In an address here before mem
bers of the Motor Vehicle Associ-
ation of Alabama, Mr.. Eastman said
We are not yet out of the woods"
regarding rubber supply.
The new manufactured rubber is
not the same thing as the natural
product" he said. "It is a substi-
tute and it behaves differently.
There are bugs in connection
with its use in heavy-duty tires
which have not yet been wholly
eradicated. Moreover, in the case of
tires there is another clash between
the military and the civilian de-
lndhuS, ana our present ability to
make the tires after the rubber has
been produced is limited.
Il caution you that there Is not
yet room for any over-confidence on
the subject of tires"
Mr.. Eastman declared trucking
operations essential to the prosecu-
ton Of the war, but advised truckers
they faced crippling shortages "in

owned stations in New York, Chi
cago and San Francisco and 163 af-
filiates, to Edward j. Noble, chair
man of the Life Savers Corp, opened
today before the Federal Communi-
cations Commission.
Mark Woods, president of the Blue
Network, was the first witness, and
was the subject of sharp examina-
tion by James L. Fly, commission
chairman, and other commissioners
who sought to develop what the at
titude of the network would be to-
ward allowing various economic
groups to present their views.
Mr.. Woods explained the net
works method in selecting it's news
commentators and it's attitude
toward commentators on sponsored
programs. The network will not sell
time for controversial subjects but
will provide free time for the ad-
vocacy of various points of view, he
said
Mr. Woods said that the network
policy was based on the belief that
II time for so-called controversial"
subjects were sold, the time would
be bought by the advocates having
the largest purse.

Illinois Judges Rule
Only Two Courts
Can Restrain 0PA
BY the Associated Press.

DS Tie ASSOCldleO PreSS.
PEORIA, ILL.,, Sept. 10.-Only the
Emergency Court of Appeals in
Washington and the Supreme Court
have jurisdiction and authority to
enjoin the Office of Price Admins
tration from enforcing price cell
ings, three-judge Federal court
ruled yesterday.
In supplementary remarks Judge
Charles S. Briggle declared: ITO
my mind the trend is bad"
The courts unanimous decision
was on a suit by the Roszell Dairy
Co., Peoria, and rs associated milk
haulers to restrain OPA from en-
forcing ruling that the company's
plan Of better service awards" vio-
lated price ceilings.
The company attorney, John E.
Cassidy of Peoria, cortended the
awards were payments for new serv-
ices and not related to charges
for hauling milk.
After the decision by Judges Brig
gle, j. Leroy Adair and J. Earl
Major, Judge Briggle turned to Mr..
Cassidy and said:
This is a elimination of a long
series of acts depriving the courts
of Jurisdiction ,vesting decisions in
stead in various boards throughout
the country. The (OPA) act pro-
vides that no court, Federal or State,
shall have power to consider the va
lidity of any regulation of the OPA
or any price schedule and this court
has no power to restrain the OPA.
"The act also covers declara tory
judgments. The district court is sub
ject to Congress. Congress can
withdraw or give the court jurisdic-
ton. In this case it has Withdrawn
our jurisdiction.
ITO my mind the trend is bad. It
is not in conformity with the ira
ditions of America. The only remedy
Is to defend yourself If and when
you are prosecuted. You may test
the constitutionality of the (OPA)
act If and when you are sued. The
question is highly debatab!e as to
whether you are violating the price
ceiling. 1t may be a violation. It
may be just good salesmanship. If
you are prosecuted you certainly
nave the right to defend yourselves. ;"
