Voluntary Donors Assist Red Cross Last year the Southeastern Mich- igan Blood Program collected nearly 80,000 units of blood from voluntary donors throughout Wayne, Oakland, Macomb, Wash- tenaw and St. Clair counties, ac- cording to J. Ralph Jenkins, Blood Program administrator. Through its voluntary donor plan the Red Cross supplies approxi- mately 50 per cent of the blood used in Southeastern Michigan area hospitals, he said. The balance comes largely from paid or profes- sional donors. Blood collected through Red Cross mobiles and its two perma- nent collection facilities here, is processed at the Red Cross Blood Center in Detroit and distributed to over 90 hospitals in the five county region, Jenkins continued. Depending on patient needs, hos- pitals may request whole blood or blood components, Jenkins said. Last year, approximately 20 per cent of the blood collected was di- verted to components for hospital distribution. Blood Is broken down into com- ponents, packed red cells and 'plasma, through the process of centrifugation, a high speed spin- ning process, Jenkins stated. Packed red cells provide the same oxygen transport function as whole blood, with one-half the volume. ,Red cells are used in the treatment of severe anemia and in other conditions requiring restora- tion of hemoglobin activity. 4 More Banks to Offer Master Charge Service Four Detroit banks have an- nounced they will offer their cus- tomers Master Charge service sometime this spring. The four are City National Bank, Detroit Bank and Trust, Manufacturers National Bank of Detroit and the National Bank of Detroit. Master Charge is one of the largest bank charge card pro- grams in the nation, with approx- imately 36,000,000 charge card holders and nearly 900,000 mer- chant outlets. A nonprofit corpora- tion, Charge Card Association, has been formed to service both card holders and merchants in the program. We are none of us tolerant in what concerns us deeply and en- tirely.—Samuel Taylor Coleridge.

AND HIS ORCHESTRA vising us that a growing number of new communities, border vil- lages, kibutzim, army outposts, schools and institutions have sub- mitted a request to the ministry for Torah scrolls. (The supply of scrolls which were brought from Romania has now been exhausted.) The consulate general of Israel in New York and all Israel con- sulates throughout the United States are prepared to receive scrolls which communities or in- dividuals might wish to donate for shipment to the ministry for religious affairs in Jerusalem. The minister is hopeful that to the extent that there are congre- gations which are on the verge of closing down, they will consider transferring as many scrolls as they can spare to Israel. He also recommends the initia- tion of a special project whereby synagogues in the United States establish a direct link with com- munities in Israel by donating to them one or more of their scrolls. A special emissary from the min- ister for religious affairs. Rabbi Joseph Ralbag, has been dispatch- ed to this country explicitly for this purporie and he will be prepared to meet with interested parties to discuss this project in more detail.
