SAYS ARTIFICIAL GROWTH OF
CANCER IS SOURCE OF HOPE
Scientist, Sailing for Europe,
Tells Of Steps Taken to Find
Cure for Dread Disease

New York, July 23.-ReGrowing
ANGER artificially and the hope It Of
fers were described today by DR.,
Francis Carter Wood, director Of
Croker Cancer Research institute Of
Columbia university.
DR.. Wood sails On the Mauritania
today to attend at Amsterdam the
international Congress Of Experiment
tai Cystology. These mel work with
live. cancer cells. one Of the latest de-
velopments In cancer study, which
began With learning how to graft
cancer upon animals and raise 1t arti-
fictally. Now q start hos been made
at growing human cancer In glass
tubes.
I'VE are starting" said DR.. Wood,
Ito do what Pasteur did when he
showed the way to cultivation Of bac-
terra artificially, a work upon which
are based some Of medicines greatest
advances.
I'VE know no cancer bacterium or
germ: but we have, and can e with
a microscope, the cancer cell. It
causes cancer, and does so plainly by
ability to grow much faster than q
normal body cell.
But for 5000 years we have been
compelled to work with dead cancer
cells. Now, for the first time, We
have them alive and capable Of pro-
ducing cancer. We wish to know why
they grow * fast, something We new
er shall know until We actually see
them growing.
I'VE can study now how fast a can
Ger cell breathes, that is how rapidly
1t uses oxygen, whether this Is more
or less rapid than the rate Of . nor
NAL cell. Any difference In rate
might become q point for q new at
tack on cancer.
I'VE know some human cancers are
helped by X-rays. We have also
some evidence that X-rays kill rapidly
glowing normal cells about Al fast as
cancer cells. We suspect the benefits
Of the x-ray are due to rapid growth
OF cancer cells, q production rate
that causes more Of them to be killed
by the X-rays. It is important to
find out definitely the reasons for
X-ray effects.
Cancer serum can be made that
will seemingly cure q cancer on q rats
leg, but the leg has to be ligatured to
retain the serum. So thus far there
Is no apparent method Of making
such q serum useful for human be-
ings. Raising the cells artificially
will assist in the study Of this serum

Idaho Senator May Take Stump
in Northwest in Opposition
to Hoover Policies
WILL REST FIRST, HOWEVER
Progressive Leader Expected to
Take Up cudgeIs for Plan
Of Western Independents

Washington, July 23.-(R-The
voice of Senator Borah, of Idaho,
which played q leading part In the
Hoover presidential race, is being
pitched for new campaign efforts.
But unlike 1928, Senator Borah is
preparing to campaign in the agricul-
tural belt Of the northwest next fall
In opposition to the Hoover farm re-
lief and tariff revision programs.
The Idaho senator said today he
had been requested to make some
speeches In the northwest states and
added he was seriously considering
acceptance.
However. he must first take the
rest which has been commanded by
physicians. That rest will probably
be for two months and will be taken
In Idaho, II the doctors approve.
Borah was mi Of the leaders Of the
band Of western Republican Inde-
pendents who fought for the export
debenture principle Of farm relief,
which was opposed by President
Hoover. This same band also sought
unsuccessfully to confine tariff re-
vision to agricultural products alone.
The Idahoan is prepared to defend
these contentious of the Republican
Independents. Several Of the group
are up for reelection this year and
Borah himself is q candidate. He Is
ready to take the stump. He Is ready
to contend that the farm problem
will not be settled until the program
Of the Independents is adopted.
It is unlikely that Borah will get
into action before mid-September or
October. There Is no itinerary for
his speaking tour and none will be
made until he completes the period Of
rest he has been directed to take.
Considerable interest attaches to
the prospective Borah toNr-4nth h
northwest among party leaders at the
capital. Some are wondering on the
effect 1t will have in the presidential
race two years hence.
Meanwhile, President Hoover Is pre-
pairing to cross this same agricultural
territory this summer. However. the
presidential trip Is expected to be
confined to sight seeing alone and 50
far MI. Hoover has no plans for any
speeches.
Among the places which the SEN
ator intends to visit Is Ne
braska. where friends Of Senator
Norris, q candidate for rer1orni-
nation, have urged him to speak.
Borah indicated today that he hoped
to go into Nebraska. Norris was on
the opposite side Of the campaign
stump from Borah in 1928, supporting
Alfred E. Smiths candidacy for the
presidency.

MENOKEN RESIDENTS

Practically All Residents Of Bur.

Out to Fight Flames
Tribune SueciaI Seryice)

Menoken, N. d, July 23.-Practical-
ly all the residents Of this small COM
munity, 10 miles east of Bismarck,
turned out last night to help fight a
fire which RACED an old frame store
house and caused damage estimated
at $1,000.
The storehouse was owned and
operated by A. T. WEIGH in connec-
ton with his general store. He said
the loss was partly covered by insur-
ance. Tools, lumber, and general sup
plies In the building were a complete
loss.
The fire broke out about II p. m,
the cause being unknown. Mr.. WEIGH
believes either defective wiring OF
marauders were responsible. The vii
layers battled with the flames to pre-
vent spread until the building burned
to the ground about 4 O'Clock this
morning.
The WEIGH store, about 20 feet
from the burning building, and a prt-
tate automobile garage owned by MI.
WEIGH, were threatened but little
damage ~ done to these two build
ings.
Frefighters formed q bucket line
from the city well to the blazing
building but could do little, other
than to prevent spread Of the flames
because the fire had gained too much
Roadway before it was discovered.
Mr.. WEIGH this morning said he did
not plan to rebuild the storehouse.

there were no engines that would
meet the demand so Curtiss decided
to make one.
With a tomato can for a carburetor,
he built his first motor bicycle In
1901. He continued to experiment
with light weight motors and evolved
