sAFFLEp CANCER RESEARCH.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: II Is quite pathetic that the recent
nunihcent gift donated for cancer research
should have been given by one who fer
vently desired 10 mitigate for others the
sufferings from which he himself vainly
sought relief Thirty-One thousand per-
sons die in England annually OF this fatal
Ualady. and in the United States $50 states
DR.. John A. McGlynn, who has made an
exhaustive investigation Of the diseasel. on
tie average. one man out OF thfrty-two ana
one woman out OF eleven is the death rate
The Cancer Research Society in England
has. as Is well known. spent large fortunes
IN its experimental work. and. following
the false trail or animal experimentation.
las omitted the simple. wholesome paths
which lead 20 truth. and therefore TO sue
cess.
Thus. after years OF experimentation ans
the expenditure of vast sums Of money. and
a still more regrettable loss OF valuable
time, they painfully acknowledge that no
remedy has been discovered for the disease
which. more fatal than consumption Is still
decimsting the human race.
The most the cancer research has accom-
plished is being able 10 give. by means OF
incubation. the very painful disease by the
other scientists have manufactured. Forty
two thousand mice ESQ stated Professor
Starting. of London) were used in this lab
oratoTy experimentation IN the year 1907.
In Physical Culture" tOctober. lseO Is
published an important article giving the
consensus OF opinion as expressed by medi-
cal men OF eminence 10 the effect that i'm
munity from and cure OF the disease are
assured by abstinence from the flesh foods
which enter largely into the daily menu II
Is 10 be hoped that those 10 whom this
sacred fund for cancer research has been
intrusted viii read this impressive article
and will devote unpreiudiced attention 20
this wholesome preventive and curative
method now indorsed by eminent experts
from different countries.
