WOMEN DYING 0F
 RAD|UM POISONING
Science and Law Unable to
 Help Them

The United Press presents
 herewith the first of series of
 three stories dealing with one
 Of the most unusual cases in the
 history of Jurisprudence and
 medicine the plight of five
 New Jersey working women
 who arc slowly dying from radi-
 um poisoning. Their fight for
 redress from the law has at
 tracted wide attention.
 Orange, N. J., May 14 UP)- While the scientific world looks on helplessly. five former New Jersey factory girls arc dying slow and painful deaths. Science has dis paired of saving them and Jersey justice has been unable thus far to comfort the last days of their lives.
 The strange death sentence, which has been passed on Miss Grace Fryer, Mrs. Albina Laricc and Mrs. Quinta Mcdonald of Orange, and Mrs Edna Hussman of Hillside and Miss Katherine Schaub of Newark, is 6 result of radium poisoning.
 DHtOrS Rallied
 Physicians know something of the curative powers Of radium but they know nothing about treating the ef- fleets of radium poisoning, The n1alady in tho case of the factory women was contracted between 1917 and 1920 when they were employed by the United States Radium corporation, painting watch dia1s 10 make them luminous.
 All of them painted o50 watches q day. wetting the brushes witA their lips between strokes. In that way they took a certain amount of redium into their systems.
 Seven years later. in 1927, the i've watch painters developed radi- um poisoning. Seeking redress against the company for which they workt d, the women found that the statute of limitations had expired; that they could not hold the com- pany responsible unless suits were filed within two years after the cause of the accident.
 seven cars to DCNClOp
 Tn this instance the symptoms did not develop for seven years Ray mond Berry, Newark attorney cm- ployed by the plaintiffs. then at- tempted to cnjon the Radium corporation from employing the statute of limitations. There has been one hearing on that injunc- ,on, n month ago. Then the case was continued 10 September 2s, be- cause of a crowded docket.
 At the ono hearing several physi- clans testified that the five plain- tffs were dying, that nothing could be done for them, that their bones were being eaten away and that probably within a year their bodies would be so devastated that they would no longer have the insistence to live.
 Docket "Too CrO~ded'
 Vice e-Chancellor Backes, who granted the postponement. was as- founded at the helplessness of science to save the women. but said the docket was so crowded that he could not put the case ahead of September.
 According to Berry, Is of the 70 women who worked with his clients between 1917 and 1920 already have died of radium poisoning.
 The damage suit by which Berry hopes to gain redress seeks a cash settlement of So5o,0o0 for each Of the five women ito comfort and maintain them in the last days of their lives.'

rIow do they do it, these modem South ! ] ern girls who live such busy lives yet keep their hands 50 lovely?
 The way is easy for all who have nor- maj skin-for lovely women all have nat. urally skin that's soft and lusuous, fine as silk. The only enemy is dirt. The con- stant soiling of household tasks, and oh, how tightly this greasy dirt can cling!
 Don't wait till night to cleanse your hands. Don't let dust and dirt work in all day. Far better than special treatments with costly medieated soaps is the way that Southern women, wise in matters of beauty, first discovered. This method is frequent rinsing, all through the day, with the mild cleansing lather of oengon Toilet Soap.
