CANCER ofesf
Killer

An estimated 165, 600 deaths
from cancer will occur ia the
United States during this pres
ent year Of 1g45. These are the
figures arrived at by the Amer
lean Cancer Society and pub
Iisl1ed in one Of it's bulletins.
"Of these 165, 900 persons, at
least IS, 900 will be saved If they
see their doctors soon enough,
and get treatment, quickly
enough. Recognizing the earliest
signs Of the disease is extremely
important, getting treatment is
then simple and necessary. Can
Ger is the greatest known killer
of women and the second great
est killer of men. But at least
one-third Of those who die could
be saved" says the bulletin.
Cancer is not contagious
Cancer is not a blood disease
Cancer is not caused by inn
moral practices
Cancer is not inheritable."
It is to educate the public on
these simple facts that the
American Cancer Society, COM
posed Of doctors and other cit
liens, is endeavoring to boost it's
funds.

Lsffer to Dod Just
Before The Bottle

Mr. John Snajdar, 1888 D.
18th st., recently received two
letters from his son Josip Snaj-
dar, who has been since 1043 in
Africa, and for more than one
year with the partisan fighters
Ein Jugoslavia.
Josip il just % years old, and
comes from the Village Klana,
near Reka, Primorsko 1.-THE Slo-
veae territory which was an
Inexed by the Italians after
World War -. His younger
brother, Rudolph, is 20 years
old. He was first interned in TIA
ly, and now he is in France.
Both letters are of interest
and tell of the horror and terror
to which the innocent inhabit-
ants were exposed. The first let
ter, written on February 21st,
reads in part:
Dear Dad:
You have often requested I
write you about home. I know
plenty, but will write you just a
little. If I were to tell you all, I
would have to write a big book.
Here, where I am now, there
are many from our homeland.
All of these people have been
forced out of their home, which
were burned and the young peo-
pie shot to death. Only the poor
old men, children and some wo-
men were left. These have been
interned. I saw our homes being
burned. Great fires were raging
four days and four nights. Peo-
pie went wild and many were
killed. There is not a village
throughout our territory that
some home had not been burned
and residents murdered. 1t was
gruesome what the fascists did
with our people. Down in the
valley a hole had been dug,
where the sadists forced the
people. Here they were first
subjected to cruelty then shot.
Cries of horror and pain were
heard far off, but no one dared
go near to aid the unfortunate
ones.
Believe me, dad, I know our
own fascists, who aided in the
killings, and we Slovene boys,
who have been fortunate enough
to have been freed by the Allies,
organized ourselves and joined
the partisans, even though we
still are in Africa. Two groups
have already joined in the bat
tie against the enemy, to free
Jugoslavia, and the rest of us
are waiting for the word to
proceed. We want to fight until
we destroy the last fascist"
