Ration card holders may use their any period 5 coupons left over from last winter. To prove the gravity of the fuel situation, and the need for consumers to get at least a minimum amount of oil in their tanks, here are some important figures: The normal demand, daily, is 1,500,000 barrels in 17 Eastern states alone. Tank cars bring in one million barrels per day: New England waterways take care of 150,000 barrels: present pipelines later will supply 200,000 more.

Blood Builders

The nutrient elements known to be essential in building blood are iron, protein and copper. There are probably other substances that play minor roles, such as vitamins D and B-com-plex, in addition to some factors not yet identified. The removal of the usual pint of blood takes from the body about 250 mg. of iron. This iron must be replaced, at the same time providing the normal requirements of iron. The availability of iron in foods varies. The iron-rich foods which should be abundant in the diet following blood donation are apricots, beans, enriched bread and whole grain cereals, eggs, meat (especially liver), and green vegetables,

The replenishment of copper involves no difficulty, because the amounts needed are small and copper is very common in foods. [ An excess, however, may be as- | sured by an inclusion of chocolate, molasses, whole grain cereals, nuts and liver. No Substitute If the foods mentioned above are sfiressed within the framework of the otherwise adequate diet, the donor of blood may expect to regenerate his blood in the minimum time, and with no loss of efficiency or well-being. The spectacular results that have been obtained in the treatment of shock due to burns, inJury and hemorrhage by the transfusion of blood or plasma which is derived from blood indicate that the nation's demand for blood will be heightened and carried over into peace times. There is no satisfactory substitute for blood in cases of hemorrhage, or for plasma in the treatment of shock. Until an equally good substitute has been found, the public may expect to be called upon for blood donations.

WASHINGTON, July 6 (U, y= The National Association of NonSlaughtering Meat Processors and | Wholesalers today announced its | support of the plan for solving the | meat shortage offered yesterday by | Rep. Walter C. Ploeser (R. Mo.). “The Ploeser program, embodying revision of the war meat board, establishment of ceilings for slaugh- | terers, wholesalers, retailers and feeders together with allocation of meats to non-slaughterers and protection for producers and feeders, is certainly the most sound and practical plan that has been advanced | to date,” the association said.

INDIANA HOLIDAY TOLL LEADS U.S.

18 DEATHS MAR 4TH WEEK-END

Traffic Accidents Claim 8 In State; Nation's Dead Is 146.

Indiana had a black mark against it today. The state led the entire nation in holiday fatalities. Righteen died in traffic accidents, drownings and varied other ways, Only Pennsylvania neared Hoosferdom in the number of fatalities on the second wartime Independence day. Each recorded 14 deaths.

Seven Drown

Automobile accidents claimed eight lives in this state, Seven other persons died while swimming, two took their own lives and one was injured fatally in a fall. Traffic here claimed two victoms, Fred W. Scherrer, 72, of 328 N. Arsenal ave, was injured fatally when struck by an automobile at S. Meridian and Ray sts. Elmer Walton Hopkins, 40, of 20's 8. Delaware st., died after he was struck by an Indianapolis Railways bus in the 400 block of WwW. Washington st. Wayne Dillman, 42, died at Kokomo from injuries received in a fall at the Continental Steel Co. There were three swimming vietims. Maggie Walls, 11, Indianapolis, drowned at Waverly Beach in White river while on a picnic. Harley George, 59, Terre Haute, died of a heart attack while swimming in the Wabash river near his| home.

Fewer Die in Traffic

Patrick Barbercheck, 8, Green Acres, Ind, drowned in Fancher lake at the Lake county fairgrounds in Gary. The national death toll was 145. It was meager compared with the record figure of 500 deaths recorded in 1941. Gas rationing and low

speed limits reduced traffic fatalities J

from 300 to 63. Curtailment of highway traffic drove travel-minded Americans to the railroads and bus lines. Transcontinental lines reported that] [traffic was up almost 100 per cent in the greatest mass exodus since the start of the war,

Thousands of sunburned vacation- | poured into swarming termi-| nals late yesterday clamoring for standing room on busses and trains, A state-by-state survey showed [that 51 drownings rivaled traffic accidents as a cause of death during the three-day period. The re-| maining 32 fatalities resulted from home accidents, shootings and suicides.

Beveridge Sure Plan to Be Used

WASHINGTON, July 8 (U. P.). —S8ir William Beveridge, noted English economist, predicts that most of his cradle-to-the-grave social security plan—designed as part of a broader program to conquer the social evils of “disease, ignorance, want, squalor and idleness”’—will be put into effect in Britain after the war. It is this generation's duty to youth to shape a better world of tomorrow, he said last night in a speech here. “The plan is part of a general program for making a new Britain after the war,” he added.

SEMI-SURPRISE BLACKOUT DUE

It's Scheduled for Some Evening Between July 12 and 17.

Residents in 15 counties in central Indiana, including Marion county, will experience a semi-

surprise blackout during the eveninng hours of one evening between uly 12 and 17. As a test of state preparedness and ‘local air raid warning systems, neither local civilian defense officials or communications officers will know the exact date of the alert. The warning message will come from the state control center. Air raid wardens, auxiliary police and firemen, messengers and other personnel of the citizens defense will be mobilized at once when the warning is sounded.

Industries Exempt

utilities, except specifically exempt by the state defense council, will be required to blackout.
