Not SO many years ago, Dr. Gris- wold said in today's weekly State Department of Health broadcast, tuberculosis was looked upon in the same way, and not until 1t was dragged out into the open and ex- posed to the light of public know ledge was progress made in its eradi- cation. Today, tuberculosis is ap- parently well on the way to becom- ing one of the rarer diseases, be- cause people have learned not to fear it, to treat 1t scientifically, and most of all to get after 1t early. Since Koch announced the discovery of the tubercle bacillus in 1882, Con- necticut's tuberculosis death rate has been cut 84 percent.
 Procedure
 The same procedures must be ap- piled to cancer, he said, pointing out that knowledge of the following facts is the foundation of progress in cancer control:
 First, cancer is not contagious and cannot be passed from one per- son to another.
 Second, cancer is not 8 blood dis ease and 1t is no disgrace to have 1t.
 Third, cancer can be prevented by the early removel of sources o' chronic irritation. A person having a sore that does not heal, a lump that does not so away, or any other chronic condition causing irritation should consult a physician. Regular annual or serni-annual physical ex- animation is an excellent way to dis cover sources of such irritation.
 Fourth, cancer is curable. Medical knowledge of its treatment has pro- gressed a long way in the past few years, using surgery, x-rays and radium, either alone or in combi- nation. When treated early, many types of cancer are definitely and permanently curable, and even in advanced cases treatment usually relieves pain and makes the patients life bearable.
 The Connecticut State Medical So- city has been instrumental In see curing establishment of 20 clinics in hospitals throughout the state, where people may secure the ad- vantages of modern scientific treat ment of cancer, Dr. Griswold stated.
