Editor, The Washington Times:
ASED on the opinion that an
X influential newspaper like
~ The Times would not wit
tingly publish a misleading state
ment, particularly one that might
cause cancer sufferers to post
pone the most effective known
treatment, I am writing to you
to call attention to an item in
regard to the price of radium in
your issue of June 26.
1t is most unfortunate that the
author of the editorial which ap-
peared in the current issue Of
Industrial and Engineering Chem
istry did not stop to analyze the
cost of radium treatment per pa
tent before making a sweeping
statement which can only be
based on superficial data. We
cannot afford to add discourage
ment to the sufferings Of cancer
patients, no matter how well in
tentioned our effort may be.
Radium per unit Of weight is
the most expensive product that
has ever been known. On the
other hand, it furnishes the cheap
est form of energy. 1t is just as
reasonable to say that because an
operating room in a hospital cost,
say, $25 900, it is not available to
those in moderate circumstances
or without means, as it is to say
that the use of radium is re-
stricted to the very wealthy.
What are the facts?
One hundred milligrams of ra-
dunn can be readily used on three
hundred patients year. It's cost
is $1,000. Carrying charges at 6
per cent. therefore, amount to
$420, insurance $140. Expense of
ownership and protection against
loss thus amounts to $3.50 per
year, or $1.S7 per patient. For all
practical purposes radium has no
deterioration.
Even If the ore referred to in
Industrial and Engineering Chem
istry contained one hundred per
cent uranium oxide which car
ries the radium, a condition
never known to exist on a COM
mercial scale, we would have
less than one part Of radium for
every 100000 parts Of mineral.
This one part cannot be taken
from the many parts except at a
cost much greater than $500. But,
for the sake of argument, let us
take the alarmists' view. If crude
