The Government moved today
for a showdown in the Chrysler
strike at Detroit, where more
than $4,000 employees of that
concern and the Briggs Manu-
featuring Co. are idle in a dozen
key war plants which turn out
parts for tanks, B-29 Super
Fortresses, antiaircraft guns,
trucks and ambulances.
The War Labor Board had called

today to attempt by persuasion to
get the 24,484 Chrysler idle back on
the job.
The Briggs tieup involves 1o,750
workers.
In Detroit it was said that re-
CARELESS of whatever action was
taken here, it appeared unlikely that
any degree of production could be
resumed at the IL plants before
Monday.
Seizure May Be Inevitable.
Should WLB's efforts to return the
Detroit arsenal area to full produc-
ton prove fruitless by early next
week, board recommendation to
the White House for seizure appears
inevitable.
WLB Chairman William H. Davis
termed the strike "a direct inter-
ference with our war effort"
OF the 24,484 Chrysler employees

cious shipping space.
 The laboratories remembered Dr. Shackell and his dried vege- tables. They also remembered he had dried some blood serum.
 So they borrowed his dehydrat- ing methods, took liquid plasma, froze it, put it in high vacuum and drew off the moisture.
 The dried product took less shipping space, needed no regu- lated temperature, and when mixed with sterile water is ready to use, on the battlefield if neces- sary.
 Invaluable in treating wounds, plasma also has been mixed with sulfanilimide to cure severe burns rapidly.
 Implications of widespread use of plasma are enormous. Red blood cells left after plasma is ex- tracted, for example, have pro- duced promising results in treat ing anemia.
 Medicine has indeed travelled far since the seventeenth century, when court physicians still were solemnly prescribing bleeding in treatment of battlefield wounds. Next-Mental Cases Go Under

 Medical experimenters found in 1888 that blood plasma, the part remaining after red cells are re- moved, could be used instead of whole blood in some transfusions.
 The reason plasma was used was that some saving soul, know ing that his citrated blood in the beakers was about to spoil, drew off the plasma and tried it out.
 Experiment showed it could be given to anyone regardless of blood type-patients can receive whole blood only from donors with suitable type-and it would keep much longer than citrated blood.
 When World War II broke, re- search in all countries was racing after an easy way to get plasma to battlefields, for 1t could be pre- served only at regulated tempera- tares and took up lot of pre-
