The following are the resolutions
adopted By the congress
Do Il resolved, That the time has
arrived when, II the surgeons Of
America are TO do their duty 10 the
citizens Of this country, campaign
OF publicity should be nj once unde.
taken to bring TO the attention OF
every woman In this country the
early symptoms OF cancer aud TO
point out that II the cancer be de
teeted la its early stages II can
often be cured.
That this society at once appoint
a committee OF five to be named by
the president TO disseminate this in
formation.
That this committee be instruct
to write or have written articles 10
be published IN the daily press, the
weekly or monthly magazines, as
may prove most expedient."
Every woman reader should seek
on the symptoms re
ferred 10 and learn their real slgni-
ficance from her physician without
delay II he would insure her own
safety or that OF friend or rela-
tive who may suffer from them now
Of in the future.
Now that We have the authority
OF great surgical congress to con.
arm what every family physician
has observed with sorrow, II be-
nooyes the lay press to aid In rescu-
ng from untimely graves women Ia
he prime Of life, when their fami-
lies are most urgently in need of
heir supervision. Cases OF this
.ype do not reach the surgeon ex-
,ept through the family physician
The latter should therefore be Inn
consulted whenever the
slightest deviation from normal con-
iltlons appears In a woman between
