Red Gross Blood Donors SEVENTEEN IIUNDRED DONA- TIONS BEING R E C E IV E D WEEKLY T0 BE EXPENDED TO THREE TIIOUSANIHVEEKLY. One of the interesting reports submitted at the annual meeting of the Canadian Red Cross Society in session at Ottawa yesterday was that. from the Blond Donor service committee. The report states that sufficient progress was made during the first your of operation of the Blood Donor service to justify con- sideration being given to a new goal, namely, 3000 donors a week instead of the 2000 a week previ- ously set. The Connaught Labora- tories have so substantially increas- ed llmir facilities. that this new ob- jective is not viewed by them with undue concern. The original arrangement as be- tween the Federal Departments, the Connaiuht Laboratories and the Red Cross Society provided for the Shlllmeiit. of partially processed blood from all centres outside o! Ontario. This scheme presented cer- tain dlfficutles and was a further factor in preventing Divisions from Retlinq nndervray. Provision was therefore made for the acceptance of ivholc blood from paints in Que- bec and Manitoba. This plan was later extended to Saskatchewan and more recently to Alberta Ii. is pos- sible that this plan will require fur- lher chanize when larger quantities of blood are reeularly received from Ontario and Quebec. Blood from anproxmatelv 1700 donors is new being received week- lv at the Connaught laboratories, either as whole blood or serum. As previously implied. the com- mittee now has an assurance from the Connauglit Laboratories that thev are now prepared to take care of 3000 donations a weak and when it is appreciated that 100.000 don- ations a veiir would mlv take care ni‘ l7.0"0 casualties requiring this tvpr- of treatment. lt is imperative nt the present time to step up our rffcrts. This may require some ad- justment in the ivresent nroslramme but in v'ew of the evident need. such adiustmcnt should present no insuncrebl-i obstacle Consideration is new brine rvlven to lho earlv er:- pansinn of exisllho services in s'~me of the lareer r~lin‘c centres and to lhe (Vvisino of some practicable plan to permit nf the smaller cities and towns pilfllolpflilfl! in this ser- vice. ‘Ilie Committee is of the opinion that donations should be limited to men. at least until the new objec- tive has been reached To Visit Here Mr. 1t.

SANDBRSON BY J (Canadian Press 8E8“ Writer) WASHINGTON April l7 — (CP) - Judging by representative Unit- ed States newspapers, India has lost considerable prestige and a fair measure of popular sympathv in the United States as a result oi repre- sentatives of the predominant pol- fen ittcal parties turning down the Bri- tish formula for political freedom in return for lulltlme war effort. When Sir. Stafford Crlpps, Bri- tish negotiator, announced in New Delhi that his mission had failed and that he as returning to Lon- don the Amer can Press, practically without exce tion, placed the blame for the brea down on the Indian l arties. Early t s week, editorial columns discussed the breakdown at length and since then, despite the great ubllc interest tn the United States n the fabulous, glamorous land of extremes, have paid no more at- tention to it. The Washington Post for instance. said "the responsibility for the fall- ure of the negotiations must be placed squarely at the door of the all-India. congress ggrdty, the most important political y in India." "Its leaders have made» it clear to the world that they are men de- ficient in staiesmanshl , lacking in realism, petty when e situation demands lar ness of spirit. con- fused ln min when stra-lliht think- ln la called for." said the Pout. concession only when the Japanese were at India's gates instead of re- cognizing the urgency of the Indian roblem. at the very latest. when e war with Germany started. Then the Times wont on in ny: "Whatever questions may be raised regarding their details, no one can question the atmm-ltv of the ro- als brought by Bil". Stof 0rd i pa.
