CONTROLLING CANCER IN
ENGl AND

Portsmouth was tle tlrSt munlcl-
pality in England to undertake pub
lie educational campaign for the con-
troll of cancer and it would appear
that the measures adopted in 1913 are
already taking effect. The annual re-
port cf the medical officer of health,
Dr.. A. Mearns Fraser for the year
1914, which has just been received,
states that there were only 1871 deaths
from cane in Portsmouth last year
as compared with 230 in 1913. This
decrease, which occurs in the face of
an increase of population, is hailed
with satisfaction by the Portsmouth
sanitary authorities as justifying
their efforts to reduce the cancer
death rate by persuading persons who
are attacked with this, disease to
avoid delay and to seek treatment be-
fore 1t is too late for more than pal
liative measures. DR.. Fraser reports
that from statements made to him by
local medical men the publication of
circulars and newspaper articles by
the health department ras been in
strumental in inducing a number of
persons suffering from early opera5le
cancer to secure treatment, the result
of which 1t is hoped will be perman-
ent.
When the educational measures
were put il, force two years ago, the
cancer death rate of the city had for
long period been increasing. Twen-
ty years ago the average death rate
from cancer in Portsmouth was 679
per 10000 of the population, but in
1918 it had risen to GIG per 10000.
In that year the total number of
deaths was only 81 less than We're
caused by tuberculosis. While ad-
mitting that the increase In the re-
corded cancer death rate might have
been caused in part by improved
methods Of diagnosis, the health COM
mittee of tie Portsmouth town coun
Gil nevertheless believed that the
present number Of deaths YVES unnec-
essarily large, and they felt it incunl-
bent to adopt whatever measures
might lessen the ravages of the dis
ease. The initiative came from DR..
Charles P Childe, senior surgeon c.
the Royal Portsmouth hospital and a
member of the health committee Of
the town council. AS early as 1906
DR.. Childe in Ills book "The Control
of the Scourge'' had given to tAe pub
lie the benefit of his extended eNper-
ience with cancer. AT his suggestion
the Portsmouth authorities in 1913
began campaign of public education
under the official auspices of the
health department. The methods
adopted included the monthly public
alton in the local newspapers OF ar
ticles regarding cancer and the print
ing and distribution of a health de-
partment circular on the subject. Ar

SUBMARINE FOR PROTECTION

Following the news that the Phila-
delphia navy yard will be made the
basis for the manufacture OF subma-
rines, comes the announcement OF
Representative Claude Kitchin OF
North Carolina that he will resolute'
" oppose the building of superdreac-
noughts by the navy department. and
will advocate ir their place the con-
struction of the greatest submarine
fleet Of the world. According to the
Philadelphia Press, the navy depart
ment's decision, together with the
prospect of a vast manufacture OF
submarines, will be hailed with Joy
throughout Pennsylvania, Delaware
and New Jersey" '.8' "
The rest of tie country, witl no
commercial gain in sight, VIII be dis
posed to consider the Kitchin project
more calmly. Thoughtful observers
everywhere, however, while regarding
the propriety of building big battle
ships as at least still open to debate
will agree that there is much 70 be
said in favor of powerful heat OF
submarines as the best means OF pro
tecting our coasts from foreign IN
vader with a navy superior to oul
own. AS we know, the submarine I:
Germany's one effective weapon
against the British navy, which lat
ter dominates only tho surface o1
the sea. Modern mines and modern
submarines in sufficiently great mum
bers to patrol our coasts may be oul
best as well as our least costly pro
lection against foreign navy cut
chasing our own. If not, the expert
will be called on to give convincing
reasons when CorIress takes th'
Snattersalp for consideration.

THE GROWING ABsURDITY.

In his eager desire to preserve
peace and his labo:ed explanations
Of ais diplomatic indiscretions thence
resulting, Mr.. Bryan has revealed an
attitude similar at some points to
that of the women of the Anti-Enlist-
ment League and the Women's Peace
Party, but he has never gone to the
extreme of discovering in Demon
Rum the inspiration and authorship
of Demon War. a.
The perpetration of this crowning
absurdity was reserved for Miss Jane
Adams, who is reported as declaring
that the military authorities of the
nations at war, in order to make their
soldiers take the offensive as in a
bayonet charge, first make them
drunk. In other words, the soldiers
of Europe are not patriotic defenders
of country or cause, but driven
beasts who are doped before they are
led into battle. According to Miss
Adams, the Germans "have a regu-
lar formula for it," the English "use
rum" and the French "resort TO ab-
sinthe.' According to otner aulhori-
ties, all the warning nations keep IL
quor away from their soldiers, Rus
sia having banished vodka and
France having exiled absinthe from
the country, as well as from the ar
my; but Miss Jane Adams, in her
recent lecture at Carnegie hall, New
York, apparently wished to convey
the impression that she alone had
correct information on this subject.
She seems to ibe unable to believe
that men would face modern guns
and bayonets unless they were drunk
Perhaps something should be for
given an ambitious woman bitterly
disappointed by the failure Of her
quixotic mission to Europe. Miss Ad'
dams presided over the so-called Wo
mans Peace Congress at The Hague
which decided by resolution thai the
war ought to end at once, and then
headed the delegation sent to the
rulers of all the warning nations re-
questing "an immediate cessation Of
hostilities." In view of the inevi
:, table results, we can readily under
stand that Miss Adams returned tt
America disgusted with the stupidity
obstinate male creatures who wage
war; But the mothers of dead sol
diers~v will naturally protest when she
contends that their sons, instead o.
dying for home, for women and fol
country, we're killed in drunken inter
national b:awls as useless as dis
graceful!
Miss Adams is justly famed 70
her good work in the slums of Chi
cago, and it is pity that she nov
insists on making herself ridiculous
Her career since she and her mis-
guided associates decided to put
stop to the European war is a sign
ficant foreshadowing Of the pueril
ties and follies likely to be dali
undertaken if the present leaders Q
the feminist movement should eve
, acquire governmental control of th
United States or other. countries.
