The Pentagon today issued q
new type Korean war weekly cas-
ualty summary with the total
figures deleted, but an unofficial
tabulation showed that our casu-
alties had increased 386 in the
last week for a new total of 127,-
383.
Ever since the start of the Ko-
rean war the Defense Department
has issued weekly summaries based
on notification to next of kin
through the previous week.
The summaries always have
started off with the total overall
casualty figures, and the totals
for the Navy. Army, Marine Corps
and Air Force.
Today's summary lacked these
totals and a spokesman said it
was designed to emphasize the
killed. wounded and missing cate
gories. Nowhere did the report
carry the word Casualties"
No Warning to Reporters.
The new type summary, issued
without warning to reporters,
came as a result of concerted
Pentagon campaign to "get over
to the public that all casualties
are not dead and the thought
that IS out of every 100 wounded
in Korea recover sufficiently to
return to some form of duty"
On November 13, Maj. Gen.
George E. Armstrong, Army sur
geon general, asserted at a news
conference:

vince the citizens that the

Experiments Made
To Return Red Cells
To Blood Donors
BY the Asseeiotsd Press

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 3. - A
blood TRANSMISSION technique now
under experiment would return to
a blood donor the red cells taken
from his body.
DR.. Joseph Stokes, jr., physician
in-chief at Children's Hospital
here, said the process is based on
the principle used to separate
cream from milk. A centrifuge
whirls, the freshly drawn blood at
tremendous speed separating the
plasma from the blood. Then the
blood is reinjected into the donor
DR.. Stokes said the method will
increase the supply of gamma
globulin. the fraction of blood that
protects against polio and some
other diseases.
Return of the red blood cells
may make possible as many as
so transfusions a year from ar
individual instead of the five OF
six now believed to be the safe
maximum.
