of radium outnumber the cures 100
to /.
That nothing is of avail against the
most dreaded disease but the speedy
use of the knife was the opinion ad-
vanced by DR.. William H. Mayo. of
Rochester, MINI. Operation is the
only cure, but radium or ray treat
ment is in order as temporary palli-
ative where an operation is impossible,
according to DIR. Francis G.. Wood,
director of cancer research at Column
bia University. Failures from radium
outnumber the cures 100 to l, he
stated. Another generation will be
required to furnish knowledge on the
real cause and actual nature of can
Ger, he said. Experiments for hun
dreds of years show that heredity
plays a small part, if any at all, in
its appearance. 1t was expected that
the members OF the society would have
something hopeful to report from their
Investigations. Instead they admitted
no progress and held out little hope.
They united in saying they had discov-
cred neither the cause nor the nature
of cancer Then they proved by sta
tistics that cancer is on the increase.
That change in the habits and
customs may reduce the disease to
some extent was a ray of hope held
out by DR.. Mayo, who also said any
cancer could be cured If operated
upon in it's early stages. .
IF we could only tell how to avoid
it would be glad, because / am frank
to admit that we do not know" he
declared. He said the statement that
the use of meat was one of the habits
to be avoided in connection with cam
Ger prevention had been wrongly at
tributed to him.
