MY wife was Yeceatly operated
on for q female disorder and the
surgeon found large cancer, too
large to be removed. He Informed
me that he has burned the roots,
thinking that would check it some.
He said that there was a bare
chance mat the new x-fay ma
chimes might cure her, but that he
had not kept IN touch with the lat
est experiments along that line, 80
he could tell me nothing definite
about it. What are her chances
under treatment by the X-ray ma
chimes recently brought here from
Germany?-M. c. B.
Answer-There are too many
surgeons" Of ~ calibre let loose
on the community. X-ray treat
ment often gives relief and pro-
longs life in inoperable cancer;
sometimes it brings about enough
improvement to make operation
feasible. When the surgeon spoke
of the roots" he was salving
bad conscience. for cancer has no
roots, does not take nourishment
from roots or grow from roots.
Cancer is not a new growth, but
a degeneration in previously nor
NAL tissues. The inefficiency and
incompetentcy Of this type of "sur.
gerry" is characteristic Of the mar
row specialism which is running
riot in medicine today. About all
the half-baked young scion OF an
indulgent family needs today to
make a specialist out of him is q

tai, an educated taste for cigarets,

The labor question has a thousand
ramifcations. 1t is connected with
every feature of our national life, and,
hence, the man who stands at the
head must be a man of broad vision,
man who can give and take, who can
consider all the angles, working at
the same time for the rights of those
whom he represents. But he must
not forget this principle, that capital
has rights too. | have stood for la
boris rights, not for labor's wrongs,
and / stand for the rights of capital,
not for capitals wrongs. Capital
needs labor, labor needs capital; one
cannot get along without the other,
and instead of standing apart, grim
acing at each other, ready to fight,
there ought to be some means found
to bring them together, with frank
recognition of the rights of both.
How it might be done l do not know.
Arbitration or otherwise, l do not
know. There ought to be some means
by which those two great forces ought
to be brought together. Capital has
right to get a fair return on it's
money. Labor has a duty to give an
pay 1t would be we'll for capital to
remember this, that after all, it is
difficult in the economic world to draw
line and say, here, for example, is
labor, here is capital, two distinct
things. The world tells you that those
are two different items altogether.
Did you ever stop to think that in
labor there is capitalistic value? The
capitalist puts his money into his
work, but labor brought together in a
great concern, also puts something
more than labor, than the mere hands
work into that great business; it puts
certain indefnable something that |
call labor capital, that comes from the
accumulation of labor. Consequently,
there should be no drawn line between
labor and capital. They should be
brought together as far as possible.
| do not know how. l urge you to
this: While you stand for your unions
as right that God has given you to
protect yourselves and your fellow
workers whilst you are willing to do
an honest days work in whatever field
that may be, if you wish to save your
unionism, if you wish to be the friend
of the working man, see that you are
properly guided, see that you are prop
erly led.
Ladies and gentlemen, we may talk
to the crack of doom; we may lay
down principles for the solution of
great problems, but there is one thing
we have to do, somehow, not we mere

ly, or you in labor's ranks, but capi-
talists too, employer and employe. 1t
the difficulties of today are to be
solved these two great producing
forces of the world are to get to-
gether and do their duty to the rest
of us. There will no solution until
you can inject into the age some of
the spirit of Jesus Christ, and, | care
not what your religion may be, this
vet remains, fact, that no one gave
the same principles of charity, justice
and right, no one ever could, because
He who gave them was God The time
has come for the employer to regard
his worker as brother, as dealing
with the human soul, as man, not
thing or a chattel, as man with
rights, with the right to rest as well
as to work, with right to home, to
home comfort, amusement. There
must be brought back somehow that
spirit of twenty centuries ago, and we
must make progress, therefore, not
by going forward, but by going back

In the Middle Ages they stood to-
gether. Today what is the attitude :?
1t is a man against man. 1t is not

tai but it is capital VS.. labor There

BODIES cHARREp ALMOST BEY.
oND RECOGNITION

New York, Sept 25-tSpeciaD-A
military board, composed Of Maj.
Davenport Jones, chairman; Maj. Jun
JUS NJ. Jones, and Lieut. Newton Long
fellow, today began an inquiry into
the airplane accident at Mineola, l.. l.,
Saturday night when six army men
were plunged to death in a Martin
bomber during the Mitchell field war
games.
The impression prevailed among
aviators at the post that nothing SEN
sational would be developed at the
inquiry, the consensus being that the
accident was unavoidable.
The bodies of the six victims, some
of them burned almost beyond recog-
milton, remained under guard at the
post hospital at Mitchell field, await
ing word from parents or next OF kin.
Army authorities got In touch with
Mrs. Annie Kane. of Ashburnham,
Mass, mother of Private Edward
Kane, one OF the victims, who had
withheld the identity of his family on
his army record
Examination of the scene of the &C.
cident revealed that the bomber, judg.
ing from the ground, struck while
headed south. A perfect imprint of
the plane was visible. At daybreak
soldiers cleared away the wreckage
before the vanguard of souvenir hun
tiers and spectators, numbering several
thousand, arrived motor and afoot.
One officer who was standing at the
opposite side of the field watching the
bomber making its fight, said heavy
fog seemed to hover over the imme.
diate vicinity of the craft. He was
certain the searchlights in no way in.
terfered with the pilots vision.
"The plane was about 200 feet
above the ground when the pilot bank
ed" the aviator said. alt was simply
q case of the ground coming up too
fast. By that mean Lieut. Davis did
not realize how low he was, and when
one is flying at a hundred miles an
hour it doesn't take long to meet the
ground | am certain the searchlights
were not factor in the accident
The bodies of Lieut. Raymond E
Davis, Corporal David H. Stivens, and
Private Kane were buried in the
wreckage close together. In com
radely fashion the men had apparent
| ly seized one another when they real
lied their danger. These three were
dead when rescurs picked up theiI
bodies.
First Sergeant Thomas Benfield OF
Chicago, Private Henry j. Nichols
and Private Irving NJ. Whitney were
hurled fifty feet away from the plane
AS a result their bodies were only
slightly scorched.
