SToCKPILING BLOOD

Blood TRANSMISSION In the last three
decades has been of inestimable va
lue in medicine. Although substi-
tutes have been sought, nothing has
been found to supplant whole blood
in overall usefulness.
During World War II, a blood
preservative was developed which
made possible the storage of blood
for period up to three weeks. This
time limit is serious handicap to
the use of whole blood.
Needs for blood in the future will
far exceed those OF the past. The
problem of enough blood is of real
concern to the country.
One approach to the problem is
to increase the yield" of donor
blood. Studies at the University Of
Washington Medical School in the
last one and a half years save de-
monstrated that with proper iron
supplements donors may be bled as
often as once week. instead of the
standard interval of every two to
three months. This will increase
The Northwest times. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1947-1955, 1951-02-28

many times the potential blood sup
ply from donor population.
A second approach is to attempt
to stockpile blood for longer per-
iod of time. To accomplish this, 2
way must be found to preserve red
cells in bottle SO that, when later
transfused to the patient, they will
continue to circulate in his blood
and not break down.
To preserve the red cell in living
state is the problem of investigators
in the departments of biochemistry
and medicine at the University of
Washington and at the King County
Blood Bank
In collaboration with other groups
OF investigators throughout the
country, they are conducting studies
to tell why the red cell dies when
kept in bottle, and, if possible,
how 1t may be kept alive under these
artificial conditions. These studies
are being carried out under the aus
pieces of the United States Public
Health Service and the Atomic E.
nergy Commission

Continued from rage ~
death. In other words, all life is
suffering. This, again, brings out
the pessimistic- sounding doctrine.
These men also visited Buddhist
temples. and while watching a for
NAL service, they saw the shrine and
the incense-burning ceremony. Not
knowing that this was pure symbol
lism, it, of course, looked like idola-
try and again. they passed this in
formation onto this country So
for a good many years, it was uni
versally believed in the Western He
misphere that Buddhism was not
only pessimistic and taught annihi-
lation, but tina, it also prsctised l.
dolatry-or COW worship or ancestor
worship, or any other name you may
have heard it called.
One explanation can be given.
These men looked at Buddhism
through the eyes of their own reli-
gion. whether it be Christianity or
any other. Therein lies the fault.
Buddhism cannot be understood
through the eyes of any other reli-
gi0n.
For example, Christian teachings
deal with life-with the present in
carnation, and they stress the i'm
portance of vicarious atonement
Buddhism, on the other hand, says,
Man is a soul going through many
births and deaths, making mistakes,
profiting by his mistakes, and pay
ing for his mistakes " This Is the
Law of Karma. the Law of Cause
| and Effect, and there is no vicarious
atonement to relieve us of our wrong
doings. Eventually we learn to
overcome our wrong thoughts and
actions and word out our Karma.
Then, we gain enlightenment and
no longer have to go through this
circle of births and deaths.
Here. again, understandings
arise.
The Law of Karma is nat fatalism.
Everything that happens to oneself
is not predestined to the end. Your
position in life today was determin-
ed by what you have done in the
past, but there is always change a
head for oneself by what he does
today. The aim of every Buddhist
is 10 help remove suffering and sor-
row. Every right thought and ac-
ton leads to right result.
If Karma were not true, we would
not have the incentive to do right
or improve things. and inst aad, there
would be chaos.
Another point CT misunderstand-
ing was the meaning of the word,
Nirvana This word literally trans
lated means blowing out. but in
Buddhism it means the extinction
of desire. When the last fire of de-
sire is put out, man loses his small
self and is immersed into the Uni
Jersal Self.
This is difficult for non-Bud-
dhist to understand. for there is no
form in Nirvana There is haven
world as in Christianity, in which
form is present, but Nirvana is on a
still higher plane than this heaven
world
Thus, either through ignorance or
ncomprehension, misunderstand-
ing of Buddhism swept across the
Western World Fortunately, how
ever, time passed, and inventions
made communications and travel
between the Occident and the ORR
ent much easier. Therefore, the
people of the West began to under
stand something of the people of

the East.
Then. TRANSACTIONS began to IN
crease, and Occidental scholars be-
gan to find that Buddhism was not
psssimistic: it did not teach ami
hilation. In fact, to understand It,
one had to be dramatically positive
in his application to learn it.
However. this is not enough. 1t

EXCELLENT NEWS FROM NEW YORK

ANAVD II(oIH NEW 1O6k
H MOST significant news to come out Of New York
IN many a year was that telling Of new cooperation between
native leaders on the mainland. lust such a result had been
the dream, the hope, the aspiration of many in these islands
Year in and year out this paper, among others, had pleaded
tor cooperation and understanding, fully aware that tremen-
dous potential was being thrown to the winds, and that the
value OF concerted effort was being wasted.
IT MATTERS not what brought about the meeting, nor
how it was conducted. What matters is that men who once
refused to sit with each other finally decided that the time
had come when the Virgin Islands were far more important
than any single leadership; that there was much at stake was
going to naught, and that together the influence of the en-
tire group could be brought to bear in quarters which would
not even entertain ideas coming from single individuals.
THERE IS MUCHt to be done for these Islands. The In
ternal revenue taxes still hang in the air. The return Of these
taxes would undoubtedly solve our budgetery problems. Then
there is the question of certain services and projects which
receive Federal aid, but which do not come to these Islands.
And many many more. These point to the need for complete
cooperation and understanding between local leadership and
that on the mainland. Together they could accomplish much.
Together they could make themselves heard in Washington
and wherever else it is necessary to be heard. But only
together.
IN THE PAST the danger was in the fear that certain
leaders would not be constantly in the limelight; that all
credit would not go in one particular direction, and that
others would dare to make themselves heard as they through.
their contributions to their homeland. This is harsh truth, but
it must be faced. Yet,there were those who constantly hoped
and prayed that somehow a change of heart would come
about, and work was done in this direction. What some did
not see was that if the entire Virgin Islands improved, then
the atmosphere would permit Of personal Improvement and
satisfaction all round.
IT IS GRATIFYING that there was a round table con
ference in New York between leaders residing there and,
leaders from these shores. What counts in that the ice is final

That glittering array of basket

with jam-packed bag of tricks
to delight the fans as only they
can do, at the Gator Bowl Friday
night, March 23rd when, they
headline a great four team dou-

teams, Henry Dutch" Dement'S

at 800 p. m. and there will. be
some terrific added entertainment

feel that the Globetrotters have
reached the greatest heights a
basketball team can attain and it
doesn't seem possible that even

famed throughout the world for
doing the unexpected, can con-
tinually surpass the glorified
achievements of the previous sea-
