X-RAY TREATMENT
FOR CANCER
Radium is Too Scarce and Costly to
be Used at all
Hospitals.

ITnited Press Leased Wire Serviee.l
WASHINGTON, Jan. S.-Moditied
X-ray treatment was recommended to-
day as a substitute for the radium
cancer treatment by Director John
L. Anderson of the U S. hygienic lab
oratory. RELYING upon the statement
cf DR. Kelley of Baltimore that new
X-ray device can produce cheaply
end effectively the proper rays, DR..
Anderson held that this method
should be used in all hospitals where
machines were available.
"Radium would never cure more
than a fraction of cancer cases, nor
relieve more than the most pitiful
percentage of sufferers he said
while the modified X-rays may be
applied to every case. There would
never be a sufficient supply OF rad
ium to meet all demands but any hos
pital could equip its machines with
the new device, making almost as eli
flcient a treatment as radium.'
