64LEPROSY
CASES CURED
Scourqe of Centuries To
Be ExterminatedIn 10
Years, Estimated

HONOLULU, July 26.-Use of the
new chaulmoogra oil speclfi: as a
cure for leprosy has been SO success
full at the Molokai island settlement
for lepers here that "a inmates Of
Kalihi Hospital have been discharged
as completely cured.
Authorities say that probably with
in 10 years the territory will have
no further need of Molokai as a leper
settlement; that settlements for iep-
rosy will be d thing Of the past, and
that leprosy itself may perhaps be I'M
known.
To Arthur L. Dean, president Of
the University of Hawaii, goes the
credit for perfecting the leprosJ cure.
Chattanooga oil long has been recog-
nized as the standard specific for
lepr0sy. Its one fault was that it had
to be administered as a whole, with
the result that the cure was slow and
often inefficient.
Doctor Dean has separated from
the bulk of the oil that element that
combats the disease. 1t is this cement
in the pure state, that has been used
with such astounding results. The PRO-
cess is by an >ntermuscular injection
once a week and capsules adminis-
tered internally three times daily.
DR.. W. j. lGoodhue> for is years
resident physician at the Molokai set
Element, says that under the present
method of treatment 65 per cent of
the chronic eases Of leprosy at the
settlement will be turned out cured
within tho lleNt two years,
Many ot the patients at Moiokai.
however, never can recover as then
disease was too far advanced before
the cure was discovered.
There are 512 patients at Molokai
and of these 175 have been under
treatment with the Dean cure for five
months
The chaulmoogra supply is entirely
inadequate and each day four to five
patients, who beg with tears in their
eyes for treatment, are compelled to
turn away.
Manufacture of the cure is being
carried on now in only small way
one of the main handicaps being the
inability to obtain sufficient chaul-
moogra seeds. Hundreds of plants
are being reared at government ex-
perimental stations here and soon
Hawaii will have a number of chaul-
moogra oil-producing plantations.
Molokai used to be called lonely
island because the lepers consigned
to it rarely ever returned. Today It's
called "happy island" because since
the discovery that the Dean specific
meant permanent cure for the
dread disease, the sunshine Of hope
has returned to the faces of the leper
inmates. And the whole institution
is full of eagerness and happiness

leans, is spending his vacation with
parents and relatives here. Mr.
Westbrook was formerly resident
