Freezing Treatment
May Actually Spur
Growth Of Cancer
Widely PubIicized
Hibernotion Technique
Secuted by Doctors
BY THOMAS r. HENRY,
Star Stan Correspondent.


NEW YORK, March 6.-Human
Information as treatment for
cancer may actually spur the malig-
nant growth, once the body is re-
stored to normal temperature, ac-
: cording to experts of the American
Society for Control of Cancer.
( At best, the committee said in
answer to q questionnaire submitted
. by newspaper science writer's, the
freezing technique, which has re-
ceived wide publicity since it was
reported to the American Medical
Association last spring, is in highly
experimental status.
The claim at hat time was that
rapidly growing tissue, such as that
Of a malignant tumor, is especially
susceptible to cold compared to the
surrounding normal body cells. Con-
siderable relief from pain and pro-
longation of life has been reported.
At the same time, committee men,
bers said, it is almost a law of
biology that organisms which sur
vive great hardship. such as cold or
starvation, tend to make up all
they have lost in growth in a great
squirt as soon as normal conditions
are restored.
Narcotic Addicts Respond.
Some of the best effects reported
for the Information process, in which
the body is kept for days at time
at temperatures as much as 10 de-
grees below normal, have been in
the treatment of narcotic addicts.
While admitting the alienation of
pain in cancer cases, some members
of the committee held that the same
results could be achieved with NOR
phine more easily.
The national committee empha-
sized, however. that no final judg-
ment can be made until there has
been much more experimentation.
The same attitude was taken to-
ward the recently introduced, salt
cocktails treatment for lukemia, the
almost invariably fatal cancer OF
the blood.
Surgery Best.
Radical surgery remains the best
cure for mammary cancer, the cause
of 40 per cent of all cancer deaths
in women, it was reported by DR..
Frank E. Adair of Memorial Hospi-
tai, New York, considered the coun-
trys foremost expert on this type
of malignant growth.
Breast cancer, in comparison
with many other types, is not a
particularly radio-sensitives type,
DR.. Adair said. External irradiation
by X-rays cures 18 per cent, in COM
parison to IS per cent cured by sur
gerry when the breast alone is in
volved.

HOW MUCH is ME, MYSELF
By Elsie Robinson

-
How much of me, ] wonder,
Is myself,
My own, true self
And how much
just heap
Of borrowings:
Tag ends of this n that
/ Which other lives
Have dropped
Along the way?
These thoughts
claim to think.
How many are my own?
How often do ever
Think things through"
Retaining only that
Which bears
The honest imprint
Of my private mind?
Or, like Magpie,
Do snatch
At anything that snares
My rowing fancy?
Bright scraps of wit
And ravelings of philosophy,
Slogans and wise cracks,
Piffling platitudes,
Pompous inanities,
Gay bits of junk
Which catch my eye
Is this the worthless litter
Which l proudly call
my thoughts?"
These feelings
Which | claim
To be my own
This hate or love,
Envy, delight, despair,
Preference or prejudice,
How many of them
Root in my own heart
How many of them
Rage in my own blood?
Or are they
Like so many
OF my thoughts,
Mere gatherings
Echoes of things l saw,
Or words l heard
In childhood days
Copies of gestures
Made by other lives?
And when at last ..
This long play-day is done,
And, through the darkness
Comes the call for home,
Will l then slip
From all this frippery,
And stand, quite naked,
Stripped of all
The trash and pretense
Free to be myself? [.
But if do, ..
How much, I wonder ....
will there really be
Of my own self!
Have self, at all,
Or am | only clothes?

BOOM TOWN RUSH
Riverside Press

1t doesn't always pay to 90 TO the
boom town for a job, because the chances
are that too many other people have had
the same idea.
The owner of small factory in Detroit
needed six expert tool and die workers
recently. He put an ad in the paper and
412 men applied Most of them came
from outside the state They told the
owner they had come to Detroit because
they had heard the city was booming
and there was a need for skilled labor.
It is true that few of the biggest in
dustrial cities in the country are doing
a lot of hiring. This, no doubt, because
of the national defense program. But
because those few places are talked about
most, too many job hunters think their
worries will be over if they can just get
to one.
As matter of fact, they probably have
even more to worry about if they get
there and don't have a job, and besides
that they will not be particularly well
come. The state of California has had a
lot of experience in lines such as this
where people with Just enough money to
get here have come only to be disappoint-
ed because they could not obtain work,
and had to go on relief.
In the meantime, many smaller cities
all over the country are getting big shares
of the governments orders and need
skilled workers When worker tries
and fails this week in his home locality
he can try again next week or next month
with good chances of success. Unfortu-
nately, the chances do not sound so rosy
when the plant is not within walking dis
tance.
