RADlUM CURE FAkING.

Reputable physicians fear, with
good reason, that the immense pub
licity given to the claims of radium
as cancer cure will make business
for a new generation of Juacks-
haartless rascals who will trade on
the terrors Of the stricken by pre-
tending that they can save the VIC
tins of cancer in any stage by the
radium treatment.
Scientists hope and mary of
them believe-that radium may Yet
prove specific for cancer in its
earlier stages. There is small
chance of its ever being more than
a palliative where the cancer has
fixed its roots deep into the flesh of
its victim. Wonderful as have been
some of the results Of treatment CT
superficial growths with radiunl, the
"cure" is still in the experimental
stage. Certainly radium hole: out
nc hope to the sufferer when n1anip-
ulated by the ineXpert, the quack. or
the charlatan.
This danger Of the fake radium
cure was brought out strongly at 4
recent meeting Of physicians III this
city. They agreed that the cancer
victims principal salvation remains,
as in the past, in early detection of
the presence of cancer aGd prompt
removal of the growth by surgery.
H. this connection stress was laid

semination OF knowledge of the dan
gers of cancer and Of the need Of

causes 5000 deaths every year.
