ANGLE WORM IS NOT
CARRIER Of CANCER

BUFFALO, Nov. al. y. S.)-Re-
ports from New York that a German
scientist in the University of Berlin has
traced the definite origin of cancer to
the angle worm was branded as ter
ribly garbled" when an International
News Service representative asked DR..
II. r. Gaylord, of the State Institute
for the Study of Malignant Diseases,
about it.
A dozen years ago scientists in the
Gretwick laboratories in High street,
which is the state institute for expert
mental work in SANGER study, started
work on the worm theory and soon ex-
ploded the angle worm idea as a car
rier OF the germ of malignant disease,
DR.. Gaylord said.
DR. Frank Kopsch, of Berlin Uni
versity, was given as authority in
New York reports for statements
about the common fishing worm being
the distributor of exact symptoms of
tumor and cancer.
the report he commented: Terri
bly, garbled, because | know that DR..
Kopsch does not believe the angle
worm has anything to do with it,"
Then Dr. Gaylord took from the IL
brary of the State institute a volume
| published by Dr.. Kopsch in 1919 in
which the Berlin physicians expert
ments with frogs and cancer were de-
scribed. The book told Of micre-
scopic form of animal life similar in
shape but thousands of times smaller
| than the angle worm and not visible
! to the naked eye.
II returned from Europe in August
and | heard nothing there of any re-
cent discoveries by DR.. Kopsch. |
would have heard of it IL any had
been made" continued DIR. Gaylord.
Il know all about his experiments with
worms and frogs because they were
told in this book of his work publish
ed some time after the war"
The book was signed by prof. Dr.
FIR. Kopsch, Leipzig, 1919" and was
printed in German, but, as DR.. Gay
lord said, did not refer to angle
worms. 1t had pictures of growth'
developed in frogs from injecting
through food, the microscopic worn
described by DR.. Gaylord.

Found Cancer Worm in 1919

THE type of animal cancer worm
dates back to studies made here in the
State institute about 1910, when we
first discovered a microscopic worm
which inhabits the earth and which
later determined does carry a germ
bordering on cancerous growths," DR..
GAYLORD explained.
"Dr. Kopsch has forged one more
link in the study of that type of cam
Ger and has established that the mi
croscopic worm positively acts as
carrier of cancer We worked 1t out
here back in 1919. :. 1t was about 1912
that we showed Wbnnection through
that class of worm and cancer of the
thyroid, in trout.
1--WE are studying tnat subject now
in Springville, where we are breeding
mice with the microscopic worm
which we first thought was harmless
but since have learned it is not as
harmless as be believed"
When DR.. Gaylord was asked il he
remembered a Buffalo physician who
advanced an angel worm theory a
dozen years ago as the cause of gapes
in chickens and also cancer, he re-
piled that such a report had been
made by doctor who has since died,
but that the theory was blasted
through experiments at the time the
microscopic worm was discovered In
the Gratwick laboratory
The New York report of Dr.
Kopsch's experiments told of taking
fifty frogs and feeding house flies,
lettuce lice and and angle worms to
them until they showed exact symp-
toms of tumor and then, through a
process of elimination of foods, dscov-
cred that angle worms developed the
| cancer.
That report amused DR.. Crawford,
for the said DR.. Kopsch's experiments
had correbrated the work in the
Gratwick laboratory of dozen years
ago, when the microscopic worm, but
not the angle worm, had been worked
with.
