Whittles Away
Bonded Debts
The Newberry Bond Commis
sion has recommended to City
Council that a levy of 9 mills
will be sufficient this year to
take care of interest on bonded
indebtedness of the city. This
will pay interest on $139,000 of
outstanding bonds. Two years
ago a 20 mill levy was necessary
to meet bond interest. With a re
duction £f 2 mills last year and
9 mills this year the commission
has managed to cut the levy in
half of the two year-ago figure.
Three of the nine mills now
levied goes to pay interest on
$70,000 of refunding bonds issued
last year. The other bonds are
dated 1939, 1925, 1924 and 1945.
R. B. Baker is chairman of
the Bond Commission and T.
Roy Summer has long been its
secretary-treasurer. Other mem
bers are M. O. Summer, John T.
Norris, and R. C. Floyd.
The glory of a people and of
an age, is always the work of a

The Red Cross Bloodmobile will
visit Newberry Thursday, Sept
ember 13, at the Armory from
ten o’clock a.m., to four o’clock
p.m.
At least 150 pints of blood will
be needed to fill the quota as
the need for blood is increasing
daily for both military and
civilian use.
The department of Defense is
planning a concerted effort to re
plenish its “gravely depleted”
supply of human blood plasma.
This depletion of the Armed
Forces’ plasma reserve is due pri
marily to the extensive use of
plasma in Korea, w'here its use
in forward areas has kept many
of the wounded alive until they
could be evacuated to an area
where whole blood was avail
able. The use of plasma and
whole blood in Korea is a major
factor in the reduction of the
mortality rate among the wound
ed.
The value of a reserve supply
of plasma has been proved in
Korea; yet it is one vital com-
midity that assembly lines can
not produce and money cannot
buy. Plasma, a blood derivate
obtained by separating red cells
from human blood, has never
been synthesized. It is manu
factured only in the human
body.
To assure each soldier, sailor,
airman, and Marine an adequate
reserve of this vital fluid for
use when and where he needs it,
the Department of Defense has
financed the expansion of blood
processing laboratories, and ask
ed the Red Cross to collect for
the defense department nearly
three million pints of whole
blood to be processed into more
than a million plasma units be
tween July 1, 1951 and July 1,
1952 This means that 270,000
pints per month must be collect
ed during this fiscal year for the
Defense Department plasma re
serve.
The situation is serious and
what has been coming in up to
the present has been a trickle
to what Is now needed.
