022,476 Pints Of Blood
Distributed by Red Cross

A total of 22,476 pints of blood
has been distributed by the Red
Cross Washington Regional Blood
Center in the past fiscal year, Ru-
dolph M. Evans, chairman Of the
Blood Recruitment Committee
disclosed yesterday.
The blood center. which opened
in January, 1948, now furnishes
needs of 80 hospitals in the Dis
trict and nearby Maryland. Vir-
ginia and West Virginia communi-
ties. OF the total, 14,497 pints
vents to District hospitals, and
1879 to outlying areas.
So far, however. Mr.. Evans
pointed out, the center collects
only for whole transfusions be-
cause quantities are not great
enough to allow conversion into
blood products such as plasma
and serum albumin. which is used
for shock treatments.
At the same time, Mrs. David
E. Finley, chairman of Volunteer
Services for the District Red Cross,
announced that an average Of 48
volunteers per month had put in
a total of 1873 hours for the
blood program. Red Cross Motor

Mr.. Boyle is a native of Leaven-

Boyle Described as Natural
To Be Democratic Chairman
McGruth Assistant
Has Known Trumdn
For 20 Years
By the Assoeioted Pres.

William M. (BilD Boyle. 46-
year-old Missouri lawyer who has
been in and out of politics since
he was a boy, was described by
party officials today as natural
to become Democratic National
chairman.
That is assuming that Senator
McGrath. Democrat. of Rhode
Island, gives up the chairmanship
to become Attorney General. Sen
ator McGrath was offered the
cabinet post yesterday by Presi-
dent Truman in a shift that would
move Attorney General Clark to
the Supreme Court.
The tall, quiet-talking Boyle,
party officials said. fits into the
craftsmanship picture perfectly.
Former Truman Secretary.
First, he has known the Presi-
dent for 20 years. and was his
secretary for a while when Mr..
Truman was a Senator. The Pres
ident, whose preference for the
Craftsmanship is decisive, likes him.
Second, he is from the Pres
ident's home State and did a
whale of a job in the campaign
Mr.. Truman made to win the
presidency on his own last year.
Third, he is already in the
drivers seat at the committee.
He was made a part-time, non-
salaried assistant to Chairman
McGrath early this year. He be-
came a full-time paid executive
vice chairman on April 81 on
Senator McGrath's recommended

Since then Mr.. Boyle has con-
Quoted the day to day activities
of the committee, including the
handling of patronage, leaving
Senator McGrath more time to
devote to his Senatorship.
Reports of Rivalry Painful.
Periodic reports of rivalry be-
tween Mr. Boyle and Senator Nc
Grath have been painful to both.
They insist they are close friends
and do not disagree. White House
officials and those at party head
quarters also deny any friction
exists.
Mr.. Boyle planned most Of the
whistle stops" the President
made in the 1948 campaign which
proved quite a factor in the DEM

Board Considers Usina
Potters Field Again y

The District Potters Field may
be used again If, the Board Of
Public Welfare, at its meeting this
afternoon, agrees to the request
of the Health Department.
Workmen will begin tearing
down the crematorium on the
Gallinger hospital grounds in
few days to start work on new
pediatrics and crippled childrens
building. The contract for the
building has been let and work
will be started in a short time.
The reopening of Potters Field
probably will be only for about
18 months. because 1t is believed
by that time a new crematorium
will be built. The second def
cheney bill contains $57,500 for
this purpose. The old crematorium
is on the Gallinger grounds near
the Morgue, and it is planned to
build the new structure in the
same vicinity.
! Potters Field will be used by the
Health Department. the Welfare
Department and the Coroners
Office for unclaimed bodies, still
births, and arms and legs ampu-
tated in Washington hospitals.
The last burial in Potters Field
was in August, 1912, when the six
German saboteurs, who had been
electrocuted here after landing
secretly on the Atlantic coast,
were buried there.
Potters Field is in Blue Plains
between the Home for the Aged
and Inflrm and the industrial

Chinese Reds Reported
Fighting Heavily for
'Changteh, Rice Center
BY the Associated Press

CANTON. July 29.-National-
ist dispatches today pictured
Communist forces on the out
skirts of Changteh in the heart
of Human Provinces rice bowl.
The Communist drive from the
north appeared to be a fianking
operation. Heavy fighting was
reported under way for Chang
teh. which is 100 miles northwest
Of Changsha, Human capital.
Observers here saw the Com
munist strategy as an attempt to
block the Nationalists from Kwei-
yang. Kweichow Province capital.
Kweiyang has been mentioned as
possible Nationalist capital if
Canton is deserted as was Nam
king.
Yesterday an official dispatch
said the Reds had taken Chuchow.
That would mean the Canton
Hankow railroad. 315 miles north
of Canton. had been cut.
A private radiophone call from
Changsha reported skirmishing S
miles east of the city, the nearest
point the Reds have penetrated.
There has been no confrma ton
of Chinese news reports that Ma
tionalist Gen. Pal Chung-hsi had
ordered the citys defenders to
withdraw on the grounds Chang
sha had lost it's strategic value.
If the Nationalists want to
leave, an escape route westward
across the Slang river is still open.
Meanwhile, officials said the
long standing plan for the trans
fer of the Nationalist government
to Chungking, the wartime capital
in the West, will not be carried
out unless developments make the

When we remember how many
of our contemporary novelists
enjoy mastery of technique but
fail to link their art up to a
great theme. Brown did well for
his day and his limited oppor-
tunity Unfortunately we have
who pander to vuglar
taste and belittle dark skinned
characters merely forget publish
ed and make morley. Brown
aimed to show that in spite Of
handicaps many slake characters
attained magnificent heights. It
seems to me he did a better Job
on a whole than some Of our re-
cent novelists writing social study
novels and digging up nothing
but dirt. Life, as | see it, is not
all filth, nor is it all sweetness
and light. 1t is the sum Of all in
varying proportions. All honor
to William Wells Brown, for be-
ing our first novelist. He had a
great story to tell he did his
best; he aimed high and failed.
The first novels of any race are
not models Of technique.
