BI00dmObiIe Sets
MarysviIIe Visit
Nov. 80; Quota loo
325 Union Countians
Get PIasma Transfusions
To Date; Only 167 Give

to insure this figure, local of
ficials are hoping there will be
at least $50 registrations. Anyone
willing to donate a pint of blood
when the unit is here may regist-
er with William D. Lee, county
blood program chairman, or at
the Red Cross headquarters down
town.
Reason 1t takes so many more
registrations in order to meet
the quota Is because many who
register fail to show up, while
others who do come are rejected
as donors due to colds or other
physical conditions.
Union County is deeply in
debted to the Red Cross blood
bank, statistics released by Red
Cross officials indicate.
SO far, in l949, residents of
the county have been given 325
pints of blood in transfusions, yet
the Bloodmobile has obtained
l67 pints in its previous visit to
MarySville.
Everyone is entitled to
blood donation when needed" it
was pointed out. Where the ply
sician has specified a transfus-
ion, the patient should not hesi-
tate to ask for it, because blood

The fact that most of the pop

cause of excessive heat and many
residents refused to return to

reports said 400 houses were

Senator Mundt, Republican, of
South Dakota, proposed a clearing
house of information to aid bus
inessmen seeking Federal con-
tracts and law requiring regis

The proposals were prompted
by the Senate Investigations sub
committees inquiry into the &C

inquiry, scheduled for public
hearings next week, is aimed at
finding out whether these IS per

Government officials.

Senator Ferguson. who used to
head the investigating group but

answers to these questions:

one for aid in getting a contract.
Such persons would have to be

Russian Astronomers
Adopt Own Party Line
By the Associoted Press

NEW YORK, July 25.-AStron-
omy is the second Russian science
to adopt political restrictions for
it's studies. This is shown in reso-
lutions adopted at a recent meet
ing of astronomers in Leningrad
The first Russian science to &C
cept political limitations was gen.
etics. the study of heredity. In
genetics the restrictions were off,
cially sponsored.
AS far as the new reports show
the astronomers action was vol
untary. Astronomy is a small
science, where in the United States
about 100 men do most of the i'm
portant work, and in Russia the
numbers are not greatly different.
The Leningrad resolution an
nounced opposition to Journalism
in Western bourgeois astronomy. !"
The Journalism. as explained in
the resolutions which follow. is use
of theory to assist in fact finding.
Theory has been one of the great
tools for discovery in astronomy,
and the Russians do not explain
what they will substitute, other
than fact-finding, which every
body always has used to the limit.
