Delegate Going to England on > Cancer Case

New York, July IS R-While warnings against hope Of an imme- diate cure for cancer continue to be made by New York authorities, nev- ertheless Dr. George A. Soper, man aging director of the American So- ciety for the Control of Cancer, Is going 10 London 10 investigate the observation of cancer virus by two British experts.
 Dr. Soper's chief. pr. Francis Car ter Wood, acting president of the society," compares the Gye- Barnard discoveries in England with the Einstein theory of relatively.
 Tt will take 10 years at least 10 prove or disprove the conclusions of the British scientists" said Dr. Wood. just as 1t will take years to prove or disprove the Einstein theory. We have learned nothing here to show that the British experi- ments on the Rous chicken tumor have any relation to cancer in hu- man beings"
 About 15 years ago Dr. Peyton Rous, doing research work in the Rockefeller Institute in New York, discovered that tumors in chickens were due to small organisms.
 In cautioning the public not to at tach undue importance to the work of he British scientists. Dr. Soper sadi:
 Ut is a long way from seeing, as Barnard saw. ultra a-microscopic par ticles believed to be capable of caus- ing sarcoma in fowls to the eradi- cation of cancer in man.
 'The most significant fact estab- lished eXperimentally by the British researchers is that micro-organism in combination with a distinctive li- quid extract of a tumor is necessary and sufficient for the production of that type of tumor in other animals.
 "1 am going to Europe because the society is eager to obtain first hand knowledge of every useful fact
  prevention and cure of this scourge."
 Dr. Soper is leaving today on the Neendam. Following the suggestion Of the London Lancet that new methods developed in the recent British cancer research might cause other diseases to yield their secrets comes from London a forecast of the results of an inquiry into small pox conducted by the medical re- search council. The London Daily Mail says the report elucidates the role of minute microbes.
 Dr, William B. Coley of New York, whose theory as 10 the cause of can Ger has apparently been proved by the British development, says the latest discoveries should result in greater control of the disease, He does not believe an early cure is foreshadoWed.

CANCER EXPERTS
 GIVE THEIR VIEWS
Think Recent Discoveries But
 Basis for Future Work

London, July IS P)-The immense popular interest in their cancer virus discovery has led to several attempts to induce Dr, William E., Gye and Dr, J. l.. Barnard to add to their public statements, especially with reference to the bearing their re- searches may have on other diseases.
 The two scientists have not re- fused to talk. but have been eX- trcmely cautious, r~teaIing nothing important and dealing only in gen cral terms with the results of their labors. Dr. Gye told one interviewer that the work done thus far was only basis upon which to start, but that 1t had opened big possibiIi- ties.
 This class of research" he said, has reached a stage when 1t is bigger than onc-man job. We have data which will make team work possible in future eXperi- mcnts."
 He added that he was In posses sion of mass of information which he would submit to competent critics.
 It is inferred from this and other equally general statements that the two investigators think 1t likely they are on the track of furher discov- cries, regarding which they arc not sufficiently confident to speak.
 Some of the newspapers declare 1 they are experimenting in Naccinat ton against cancer and the Daily Sketch says they have prepared vac cincs from virus which had been used to inoculate mice, with the re- suit that the animals became i'm mune from cancer; at least all at tempts to give them cancer failed. Neither Dr. Gye nor Dr. Barnard has said anything confrmatory ot this.
 The same paper believes they have seen and photographed the germ ol smallpox, and suggests their invest,- cations in this direction hold out the prospect of a revolution In the form of anti smallpox vaccination vaccine prepared from the actua germs of the disease being used in stead of calf lymph. Of this, also the two investigators have said noth' ing.
 Both pr. Gye and pr. Barnard arc 10 attend meeting of the medica association at Bath next week They will address the meeting pri' vately. but are not expected to gt beyond the statements published this week in the medical journal | Lancet.

Englishmen, excepting in rare in- stances, never wear diamonds, es- pecially as rings, and on this ac- count they never are seen in the jewelry shops until spring when the tourist season opens.
 Dealers here say the Americans are buying fewer diamonds than formerly. This Is attributed to the fact that the stones are approxl- mately as dear here as in the United States now that the pound sterling Is virtually at par, and In addition purchasers are expected to pay the 60 per cent duty when arriving on the other side.
