COLD BLOOD.
KEPT IN SOVIET STORE. Russian research workers, faced with a shortage of human blood for transfusions, have discovered a way of storing it, says the Moscow correspondent of the Daily Sketch, London. They found, it is said, that human blood could be kept fluid for 20 days. A dead man’s blood was maintained unchanged for six days. They then experimented with this blood for transfusions. At one hospital, 80 patients recovered after injections of preserved blood. The Soviet now keeps a supply which renders doctors independent of ordinary transfusions.
