New York City and "key Pennsylvania cities" as evidence of dissatisfaction with the Administration. Reede said the overwhelming northern Negro Democratic vote indicated that the northern Ne groes are "not disposed to blame northern Democrats for Faubus' action," but the administration, instead "I see no reason." said Reede.

NOVEMBER 16. 1937 Blood Tests In, Contents Kept Secret The first reports on the blood tests made by the Health Service during the recent respiratory ill nesses have been received. But Dr. Herbert R. Glenn, di rector of the Health Service, de clined to release contents of the report until results of more tests were received. Glenn said he expects further reports within a few days. Blood samples were taken frotii 8 to 10 students who were judged to be the worst cases of respira tory illness. The, samples were taken on two separate days, one at the height of the fever, and another about 10 days later, after the fever had receded. Glenn said the first reports on the tests contain the indentifi cation of the strain of organism infecting the students. Further reports from at least half the number of samples are necessary to confirm the identity of the organism, he said. The samples were sent to the Children's Hospital in Philadel phia for analysis. About two weeks are needed r for processing at the laboratory, following a few days' processing at the University Hospital. MT. CLEMENS, Mich.
