Crippled Grandma Listens
To The Youngsters Speak
By HAL BOYLE
NEW YORK (AP) The old lady butted the screen
dooi open with the prow of her wheel chair and rolled her
self out onto the porch of the small suburban home.
"What a beautiful sunset!" She said aloud, although no
one else was on the porch. Contentedly, she sat and
watched a great blue cloud sail down a sky road of red.
The screen door opened again
and a small blonde haired girl
toddled out, clutching a paper doll
and some cut-out dresses.
"I followed you out, grandma,"
she said. "What are you doing?"
"Just watching the dark come
down, dear. See that big cloud.
Doesn't it look like a ship? You
can even see the sails."
. The little girl studied the sky
gravely, then shook her head.
"Those aren't sails, grandma,
they're feathers," she said. "It
looks like a bU old hen."
Grandma smiled and said, "No,
a ship!"
"No, a hen!"
"Ship!"
"Hen! Hen! Hen!" chanted the
small girl.
Grandma picked up a rubber
tipped cane and touched her gently
in the ribs. She caught hold of it.
And the child and the old lady
lulled the cane hack and lortti,
pi
laughing.
Again the screen door opened
and a small boy, older than the lit
tle girl, came out.
"What are you laughing at?" he
demanded.
"Sister and I are playing tug-of-war,"
said grandma. "Do you
want to play?"
"That's baby stuff," he sold. He
walked over to the paper doll, ly-

"That's baby stuff, too," he said.
The little girl picked up the doll
and ran into the house, crying.
"Jimmy, you know you shouldn't
do that," said grandma. "Please
don't be bad."
"Well, Where's mom and dad?
I'm hungry."
"They went over to the neigh
bors for a few minutes to a party.
They'll be right back."
Face Getting Crucnhy '
Jimmy stood defensively aloof
for a few moments then climbed
silently and moodily into her lap.
"That's better," she said, al
though his weight hurt her.
He reached up a hand and idly
stroked her cheek.
"Your face is getting awful old
and crunchy, grandma," he said.
"I guess you won't live long, will
you?"
"Not too long dear," smiled
Grandma.
"Will I ever get as old as you?"
"I hope so, Jimmy boy."
"I don't. I wouldn't like going
around in an old wheelchair. You
know what dad said?"
"No. dear, what did he say?
"He said you'd probably hang on
forever; and mama said he
shouldn't talk like that Should he,
grandma?"
"Well-"
"After you die, grandma, can I
pick me out another grandma to
have?"
"I guess so, Jimmy," said the
old lady, leaning back in the wheel
chair. "What kind would you
pick?"
"I'd pick one that walk at least,"
he said, "and she wouldn't be so
wrinkly."
There was a long silence. Jimmy
reached up his hand again to fee!
her face.
There was a long silence. Jimmy
reached up his band again to feel
her face. When he drew back his
: fingers, they were wet.
"Why are you crying, grand
i ma?" he said.
i "Child, child" she said, holding
him against her heart.
It was getting dark on the porch.

Britain Plans
To Buy Apples .
WASHINGTON (JP) The
State department informed north
west congressmen that the Brit
ish government plans to buy at
least $3,500,000 worth of apples in
North America during the next
twelve months.
The orders, the department said,
will be placed in the United
Stales and Canada on a non-discriminatory
basis.
In a letter made public by the
office of Rep. Mitchell (D-Wash),
Assistant Secretary of State Jack
K. McFall said discussions among
British, Canadian, and United
States authorities will begin soon to
determine a division of the pur
chases between Canadian and
United Slates suppliers.
The British government plans,
McFall said, to permit the apple
import trade to revert to private
hands.
McFall said the department of
Agriculture, following its usual
practice, will consult American
apple producers in preparation for
the purchase negotiations.

More Donations
Of Blood Needed
For Use In Korea
AU Pacific Northwest field In
stallations of the army, navy, air
force and marine corps have been
instructed to cooperate with the
Red Cross to the fullest possible
extent to raise the level of the
"gravely depleted" supply of hu
man blood plasma for use by the
armed forces.
"The value of a reserve supply
of plasma has been proved in Ko
rea," the department of Defense
in Washington states. "It is one
vital commodity that assembly
lines cannot produce and money
cannot buy. Plasma is manufac
tured only in the human body."
The depletion of the armed
forces' plasma reserve is due pri
marily to its extensive use in Ko
rea. Plasma, a blood derivative
obtained, by separating red cells
from human blood, and whole
blood are major factors in Ihe
reduction of the mortality rate
among wounded in Korea. In
W,orld War I, 8 to 11 men per
100 died after leaching the most
forward surgical hospital. In
World War II, the number was
reduced to 4.5 and in the Korean
conflict it is 2.6 men per 100,
True. Talk Reduces Donors
Ups and downs in the Korean
campaign have had a noticeable
effect on the amount of whole
blood the Red Cross collected.
When the United Nations has the
upper hand, collections have been
well below normal. Indicative of
this is the fact that since the Kae
song ceasefire negotiations began,
collections have dropped to one
third of the requirement.
To assure an adequate reserve
of this vital fluid, the department
of Defense has financed the ex
pansion of processing laboratories
and has asked the Red Cross to
collect for the Defense department
a quota of 2,800.000 pints of whole
blood, to be processed into more
than 1.000,000 plasma units be
tween July 1, 1951 and Julyl, 1952.
In the past few months collections
have averaged 35,000 to 40,000
pints monthly in face of the quota
of 300,000 pints per month set
for the remainder of the fiscal
year.
All armed forces commands
have been directed to wage A con
tinuous and vigorous camnaign In
conjunction with the Re3 Cross,
to persuade the civilian and mil
itary population to contribute
whole blood to (he armed forces.
The military services are also es
