WOULD EXAMINE

Instructor of U. of N. Advocates
Statewide Plan

Arhor. Mich, Aug. 1.-"Why
,anId,'t the health service, in opera
49,, here. be extended so as to include
nhvsical examination of every citizen
- uiehigan?" asked DIR. ii. Il. Darling
=. tho fourth of the medical lectures OF
,ho II of M. summer course.
orben diseases such as cancer and
..,,orculosis would be discovered in
,hoir inception and treated or oper-
a,od upon while there is still time
"a save life" he asserted.
A. In what can be done TO prevent
.oncor Dr. Darling said he had faith
4, the methods pursued by various
no insurance companies, and the
t,,iycrsity health service consisting OF
thorough examination, by competent
musicians, yearly. IF it is good for
safceuarding the health of holders of
life insurance policies, and the health
- students in this university, it is good
for all Of us.
Warts Cause Cancer.
DIR Darling expressed the belief that
cancers were caused frequently from
warts and moles upon the surface Of
the body, and advised that these be
removed by competent physicians, and
not he allowed To continue as a pos
sible menace. I'VE may never discov-
or the cause of cancer, but we may be
able to prevent its development" he
soid. practically every state, in the
last few years, has carried on cam
paign against tuberculosis. but there
has been no campaign started against
cancer. and yet in last months report
BY the state board of health the causes
Of death were cancer first, then tuber-
culosis and violence.
There should be an organized ac-
ton i'm each state to determine how
prevalent cancer is. There should be
some concerted action for the study
Of the disease and when this is done,
great stride will have been made
toward finding "A cause, and a cure,
for a cure will follow the finding of
the cause OF cancer, as truly as night
follows day.
There should be state homes for the
care Of cancer incurables. The final
step is slow, painful and a sad one.
Every effort should be made To make
it as endurable as possible, to make
them comfortable toward the end"
There is nothing under the sun to
prove the theory that cancer is an
inherited disease but there is some
thing to prove that a melancholy life
does have great deal TO do with
the formation of cancer something
to prove that hard work, loss of
friends, a general dishearteued view
of life are conducive To cancer.
THE truth is that no scientist liv-
ing or who has ever lived has found
the real calisc of cancer, but what we
have found is that there is no need for
great death rate.
"Radum is being exploited as "A
cure for cancer by men of the highest
integrity in the medical profession, but
the results do not show anything of
value il the cancer is other than local
surface cancer. When it gets beyond
the local surface cancer it is beyond n
euro by radium."

SAYS PLAGUE
Is DECLINING
State Health Board Finds Fewer
Deaths From PhthisiS

Lansing, Mich, Aug. THAT tuber-
culosis, both pulmonary and otherwise,
is gradually declining in Michigan, is
shown conclusively by a new set of
tables, drawn up by Fred \. Newgrean,
statistician To the state board OF
health, and published in the July num-
Der of the Bulletin, issued by the board
today.
The entire 10 years, in which time
the compulsory reporting of deaths to
the state board has been in vogue, is
used in the tables.
Mr.. Newgrean divides the 10 years
into three five-year periods. and the
disease itself, into pulmonary and all
other kinds. In the first five-year per-
iod OS9S-1902) pulmonary tuberculosis
was responsible for 500 deaths per
100000 population. The other kinds Of
tuberculosis was responsible for 22.9
deaths. In the second five-year per-
iod, the pulmonary class had increased
to S9.1 deaths, while the other had de-
creased to 1862. The third fve-year
period Q9OS-1912) shows the average
death rate to he ST. from pulmonary
and 1863 from other kinds.
Pulmonary Decreases.
COMPARING the last figures it will be
seen that pulmonary tuberculosis in
the last five years has decreased S.3
per cent, while the average rate for the
other forms has practically remained
stationary.
AS to the influence of age in tuber-
culosis, Mr.. Newgrean says.
Tuberculosis, unlike other commune
cable dseases-typhoid fever, scarlet
fever, whooping- cough, measles, etc
is no respector of age, 1t is true it
shows it's effects especially during
early adult life. and that in 1912 it was
responsible for so per cent of the
deaths occurring between the ages OF 20
and 40. tuberculosis takes its heavi-
est toll just at that period of life when
man has need of all his strength and
activity.
Rate High at 20.
THE persons living at the ages of
from 3 to years seem to be the least
| susceptible to this disease Of any OF
those living at other ages. their rate
in 1912 being 1871 per 100000 living at
that age. Between the ages of 20 to
"a, their rate was 146.1; % to 30, 1900,
this being the highest rate Of any of
the age groups. After this age group
the rate gradually decreased with the
advancement of age, but does not get
lower than the average rate for all
ages Old until after the sixty ninth
year"
Summarizing, he finds:
That tuberculosis is decreasing in
Michigan.
That tuberculosis is more prevalent
among the colored population in pro-
portion to the numbers.
That, not counting pneumonia, tu-
berculOsis causes more deaths than all
the ether communicable diseases COM
bined.
That high temperature and sunshine
are enemies of tuberculosis.
That tuberculosis takes it's heaviest
toll ut young adult life.
That certain occupations render their
employees more susceptible to tubercul-
osis than others.
That tuberculosis renders an eco
nomic loss to the state.

SEDOFF EXPEDITION SURVIVORS SAFE AT PORT OF. ARCHANGEL

London, Sept. IA St. Petersburg despatch to the Reuters Telegram Company reports that surviving mem bers of the Arctic expedition headed by Lieut.. Sedoff. which left for the north in 1912, have arrived at Arch angel. The survivors stated that Lieut.. Sedoff died in a. vain attempt to reach the north. pole The expedition wintered in 1s12 and 1913 in newly discovered territory and later Sedof proceeded to Franz Josef Land whence he started, for the pole accompanied by two sailors. The leader fell i'll on the way and died.
 \The Russian government sent an expedition to the relief of Lieut.. Se- doh early in 1914 and it is probable that this expedition effected the res cue of the explorer.
 According to Lieut. Sedoffs plans, the expedition, on reaching Franz Josef Land, was to divide itself into two parts at the beginning of 191S.1 The polar party, consisting of the lieutenant and two companions, was to make a, dash for the pole while the other members remained at winter quarters to carry on scientific work
 Lieut. Sedof has been credited with the novel idea of using polar; bears as. draught animals for his sledges.
