ment of a peck Of cockleburs consign-
ed to Spokane. Wash, was the unusual

LEGISLATORS HEAR
DIR. KELLY ON RADIUM
Committees on Mines Attend
Meeting at Secretary
Lanes Invitation.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 14.--In the interests
OF the bill reserving lands containing ra-
dium ores Secretary Lane invited the
to his office to-day TO hear an addicss
by Or. Howard Kelly OF Baltimore on the
value Of rad!um in cancer
Among those In attendance were Sem
ator Walsh OF Montana. chairman OF the
Senate Committee on Mines and Mining.
and Representative Foster Of Illinois,
chairman Of the corresponding committee
In the House. These committees have
jurisdiction over the radium bill proposed
by the Secretary OF the 1Stcrior. Repre-
sentative Foster is a physician and has
great faith In the curative qualities of
radium.
Secretary Lane said II was his view
the policy that aims to extract from lands
now in public ownership sufficient radiun
for use In American hospitals 'in order
that the poorest patients may procure
promptly the treatment now necessarily
limited to the selected few" lie insisted
that the object OF the proposed .legisla-
ton ''is development under conditions Ia
vorlng the best use Of this resource. which
ha. no value except rs It is mined and
used"
There will be hearings on the radlur
bill before the Senate and House COM
mttees on Monday. Secretary Lane, DR..
KAly and others VIII appear.
A bitter fight will be made on the
radium bill. Representatives of compa-
MES that are said to extract radium from
ores are IN Washington In opposition 10
the measure. Joseph 4. Kelly, represent
ing a radium manufacturing company In
Pittsburg, takes exception to statement
made by DIR. A. X. i. Harvey OF this
city, who has studied the use OF radiur
as a cancer cure In France and Ger
many. that radium is not yet manufac'
tured in the United States.
1T seems TO me that l'r. Harvey has
no knowledge OF the radium situation.
| said Mr.. Kelly. The fact is that our
| company In Pittsburg does produce ra-
dunn, is now selling 1t TO DIR. Kelly OF
Baltimore and will put on the market THU
year between ten and twelve grams OF
radium. This amount is more radiun
than the entire output OF the rest OF the
