Wed., april 22 Moose Lodge Here a Hospital gets new machine for Auto analysis of blood soviet workers and booze Good omens few for talk in Vienna an a new analysis by William l. Ryan a special correspondent soviet american arms talks whose Success or Lack of it will be of enormous importance to Mankind reopen thursday in Vienna. There Are few Good omens but one May be Moscow a complaints about drunkenness and irresponsibility among soviet workers. This May sound far fetched but soviet economic problems Are directly connected with whatever Kremlin interest there is in scaling Down the hugely expensive arms race. Salt the strategic arms limitation talks offers probably the Only Way out never have the soviet Union and the United states possessed such military might As they have today. Never have the superpowers had such Complex foreign policy problems. Never have the two had More compelling reasons for seeking an arms agreement. The arguments on the american Side in favor of a halt to the race have been widely publicized. What about the soviet Side when Leonid i. Brezhnev the communist party chief publicly bawls out soviet workers for drunkenness and irresponsibility and Calls for a harsh administrative measures a he exposes one of the big reasons Why the Kremlin might want an arms race cutback labor productivity in the soviet Union is too Tow. Income however Small by Western standards outruns production and there Are not enough consumer goods to go around. The demands for improving the so. Viet Domestic Economy never have been More insistent than now. The soviet consumer lobby never has been stronger or More demanding. The leaders never had had More incentive for cutting Down huge investment in an open ended arms race. Brezhnev a speech and other recent official Moscow statements reflect an urgent need to invest in the consumer Economy a much bigger share of the wealth that is being gobbled up by the arms contest. The need must be pressing indeed to move Brezhnev to s Shower of heresies his Calls for More autonomy in business enterprises More economic incentives More initiative from. Below. All smacking to lessened centralized bureaucratic control. The Kremlin apparently also would like to arrange More beneficial Contact with the United states to help the soviet Union out to her economic problems. Discussing Salt recently a soviet publication said a considerable possibilities a re being revealed in the Field to mutually advantageous Trade economic ties and scientific and technical cooperation Between the United states and the All this can reflect itself in the Vienna talks. If logic were in command the negotiations would have s Good Chance. There is Little record thus far however to logic being the Rule in soviet american negotiations. The Beaufort county Hospital has a new blood Auto analyser which Hospital officials estimate will save patients up to $57.00 for blood tests and result in a More comprehensive preventive Medicine program at the Hospital a a we Are very with the new machine Quot Quot or. Harry Carpenter Hospital pathologist said a but we Are really excited about our new chief medical technologist Tony Christiano who will operate the sea analyser a Carpenter added. A Tony comes highly recommended and his knowledge and experience Are a major asset to the Hospital a the doctor said. The mood analyser Cost approximately $52,000 and is one of three in the state. Although there Are other less efficient models the sea 12-Jr. Purchased by the local Hospital is the latest and Best according to Christiano. A there Are Only 23 presently in use in the world a he said. The machine gives 11-minute feedback for twelve blood tests to one Sample. Its Reading is Given on a graph which allows doctors to spot blood abnormality instantly although Complex in detail the analyser mixes blood samples with chemicals which change color when brought into Contact with various substances in the blood a Colorimeter records the intensity of this color change and feeds this information to a recorder the recorder then graphs the information As Tony Chris Tiamo measured with a reference blood which Sample to known properties the machine analyses twelve different blood properties at the rate of 30 samples per hour it can do one Sample in 11 minutes by hand would require several hours to work by a trained technologist Well known properties tested Hospital.
