PACE TWO Blood at Cost "Bank" Started Relatives and Friends Are Expected to Pay Back I ( Amounts. Received SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. iMff) -rormatlon ot a put -and -take blood bank designed to supply blood at coat to all who need It aad particularly to contribute to Great Britain's need Ja the war emergency was announced re cently by the San Francisco Coun ty Medical society. It will be the first la the Unit el States to be operated by i eouatr medical society and "one of the few large enough to meet ' the need not only of an entire metropolitan city but of sur rounding communities as well, the organisers said. Whenever a patient receives blood, from the bank, his rela tives or friends will be expected to , pay back an equal amount. This will sustain the supply. The Cost to patients will be in the nature of a service charge for typing, taking -blood from donors and maintaining it until used. This cost probably will be about a pint, the announcement said. The British War Relief aasocla- .tloa has a large list ot Califor Elans willing to give blood to agland's casualties, medical au thorities reported, and the bank will prepare and send this blood ' abroad with the help of the American Red Cross. Bat - in the event or any na tional, or local - emergency the wholo supply will be available for Immediate nse as needed. - ew Star Picks trls He Lilies 'Producer Why He uis ienain remme tLoy" Interests xWOOD.

Htrelt, author aad former for elgn correspondent, agreed on the principle of a federal nnlon of democracies. Miss Booth asserted that "morally, we are at war now. We have named our enemy. We have chosen our allies. We are sending the material ot warfare to their distant field of battle to kill our named enemy." All talk of "non-belligerency," she declared, was "so much con gressional presiflags, which, how ever obtuse the Germans may be, certainly does ' not deceive them." , She offered the "union now" program as a plan to assurs a democratic victory in the present war and to "keep the civilised areas or the world st peace after the war Is over.

Salem, Big Day V the president during the day. chief executive is Mrs, the: Brain Machine In Use To Aid Polio Victims SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 25-F) -A machine which detects brain waves is being used here as a sort of casting director for human muscles, in an effort to eliminate some of the guesswork in restor ing power to limbs damaged by Infantile paralysis. The disease attacks th brain or spinal cord. Often it destroys nerves which control, specific muscles. But there are "many mus cles In an arm or leg and some of the hearby ones are left undam aged Thes unaffected muscles some time! can be trained to do much of the work formerly done by the paralysed ones. Occasionally the healthy muscles can be alter ed or shifted slightly by. surgery to do the added work a little more effectively. Use of the brain wave machine to determine the ability, of var ious I muscles was undertaken by Dr. J. B. Saunders, Dr. Le Roy Abbott and Dr. Verne Inman of the University of California med ical school for the national foun dation tor infantile paralysis. Like the brain, the muscles when in action produce electrical impulses. The strength of these impulses Is proportional to the amount of pull the muscle exerts, and that gives the clue to its ability to do extra duty. Small metal plates are Placed as nearly as possible to the mus cle to be tested. They pick up the muscle's electrical impulses and send j them along wires to a ma chine which records them on a slowly revolving cylinder. In ! this way, the experimenters repotted, they are learning how each muscle works. This in turn tells which muscles are better able to take on the extra work: whether they can be trained by exercise to assume this added burden, or whether they should be altered by. the surgeon before the added burden is Imposed upon tnenn Bel gium Counts Damages of War wisiIINGTON, Jan. 1S-(JP- Only42 of Belgium's 2(71 cities, towns and villages escaped dam age from bombs, artillery fire or flames during the German army's swift conquest of that little na tion, j the commerce - department reported 'today.

Require all wine sold la : Oregon to be bottled aad la beled by the manufacturer at ; point of origin. ! 3. Permit sale of naturally fermented, vnfortified wine by ' the drink, much as beer may aonr. bo dispensed. , ! . ' - This bill, too, may be classified In part as agricultural legislation because it springs from a desire by Jones to expand the market for the Oregon fruit, especially the berry crops. J . The Jones measure may also enlist the. support of the retail beverage dispensers, as well as of fruit farmers, because It would open a new field of business, one that might become second only to "on premise consumption" of beer. Confident of Support on Third Point of Bill Jones believes the third point of his bill will gain considerable support as -well from citizens and legislators interested ia making it less easy to obtain fortified wine, about which there was much complaint made to the 1939 ses sion and about which much has beeh heard - since. Supporting his proposal, Jones issued a statement Sat urday declaring that repeal of prohibition was brought about in part by people who believed, light wines and beer should be come available again and that under present state liquor regu lations, it had become possible for "wines of doubtful quality to bo offered at prices under selling those which good wine would command. The resulting combination of low grade wines and, through use nf the fortifyinc process, those of talfh alcoholic content have nrrnn fruit growers of "their Just share of the business produced by wine consumption, Jones' statement maintained. The bottling and labeling pro vision of his impending hill wouia nrAvont the shiDment of wine without the producer's "guaran tee of chemical analysis and gen eral desirability." Jones declared In summary this with the restrlc tlon on fortified wine would "in sure that wines of high alcoholic content can be obtained by per sons of proper age and character only," and, finally, allowing the by-the-alass sale of wine would open a "vast market" for Oregon fruits and berries. A new day of widespread co operation and promotion in marketing Oregon agricul tural products would be called for; in the economic council bill. Whether or not It would be forthcoming wonld . depend upon the wishes of the, farm producers. The bill would provide the ma chlnery by which growers could organise to find markets, J attract them by such means as nation wide advertising and control sales promotion. It would work as fol lows: i Could Petition State For Marketing Groups j , If at least 200 growers of i major agricultural crop, or 23 per cent of those producing minor crops, desired to effect a- mar keting organization, they could petition the state director; of ag riculture to call a referendum election. All Oregon commercial producers of that crop would be given opportunity to vote their wishes In the matter. ' If 10 per cent of the produc ers as measured by crop tonnage, supported the program, it i would then become binding upon all growers of the particular pro duct in question. The marketing program I would begin with appointment by the governor of a policy committee of three growers picked from a list of nine submitted by the producers and two processors. ; Standards and grades would be established, a label or seal of excellence adopted for dis play on top grade containers of the product Involved, and hea vy penalties provided for any misrepresen ta tlon of quality or violation of the requirements set up. A maximum levy of S per cent could be collected from the sum received by the producer In ths first sale of his product to finance the program. The "first dealer" would be made responsible for turnover of the tax to the mar ketlng committee.

Jan. 2S Ths discovery ot two more huge clouds of cosmic dust in . inter stellar space was reported to the Astronomical Society of the Pa cific recently: by Dr. Walter S. Adams, director of Mount Wil son observatory at Pasadena. These enormous black patches In the sky lie in lino with each other with respect to the earth and help to blot out a part - of the light from a star In thereon stellation Auriga, near the Milky Way. Earthly, Substances They are Interesting to astron omers because in recent years similar cosmle 1 dust ' clou ds have been found to contain substances like some of those ori .earth and in the sun and stars. It means that there Is much more solid matter in the universe than that contained in I th stars, planets and other ordinarily detectable heavenly bodies. ': In recent 'months astrophysi cists bar identified hydrogen, carbon 'and nitrogen in some of these clouds. .The two newly dis covered clouds also contain con siderable calcium, Dr. Adams rs ported. Previously calcium, sodi um, titanium and potassium had been found in other interstellar clouds. - Spectroscopic studies, showing how particles In th two clouds affected ths light of stars behind them, indicated that ths enor mous bodies 1 were moving past each other at th rate ot SOS to 400 miles per hour, which is aot very fast compared with the ve locities of some heavenly bodies. Are Intensely Hot It also is possible. Dr. Adams reported, thst these clouds are intensely hot msybe 10,000 to 20,000 degrees, fahrenheit. Xmpty spseo between ths stars Is supposed to bo very cold about 46$ degrees below zero, fahrenheit. But when th star light hits th thinly distributed atoms In. these clouds it knocks lectrons out of ths particles.
