-Virginia's law providing jim
crow seating on buses was de-
clared, in a brief filed by the
Workers Defense League, 'incon-
sistent with articles 55c and Sc of
the Charter of the United Ma

The Leagues friend of the

Zitver and Ernest Fleischman in
U. S. Supreme Court where the
Irene Morgan case will be argued
shortly. Irene Morgan, arrested
in July 1914 for refusing to sit in

Both clerics in their approach

Not, because the conditions would
be corrected. Not, because they
wanted to question the whole
faculty. Not, because they want
ed to investigate themselves. Not,
that they were interested in get
ting the facts, explained in my
reasons for resignation. But, be-
cause if l resigned, people would
ask all kinds of questions, that
would demand an investigation.
Why fear an investigation?
What is there to hide?
Perhaps Ted Hollinsworth was
right both as to his statements
in the STATE PRESS, and in his
carrying it to the people rather
than the board if all the men,

Charter, the brief says: 1.-THE
United States, as member OF
the United Nations, is hence
pledged to promote respect for
and observance of, human rights
and fundamental freedoms for all
without distinction as to race,
sex, language, or religion 1t is
urged that this pledge is binding
on the U. S. and the tribunals
thereof, at least to the extent that
it must prevail over inconsistent
state enactmens.
The Virginia segregation stat
ute is especially violative of the
provisions in question of the
United Nations Charter, in that
it clearly makes a distinction in
the very definitions of white
persons and 'colored persons. "

1T is q grim fact and one
worthy of attention that at least
$4,000 people in the United States
die each yea. of cancer of the
lung. Men are more often afflicted
than women and for them, the lung
would appear to be the second
most common location for cancer,
only the stomach being more fire.
quent site of this disease.
Early diagnosis is the only hope
when cancer attacks an organ as
vital as the lung. Thus, it is ter
ribly unfortunate that in the be-
ginning, when the growth is small,
X-ray examination usually shows
nothing abnormal.
Persistent Cough
An irritating and persistent
cough, however, develops early.
Sometimes, blood is brought up
and there may also be some
wheeling. Hence, i. is of great i'm
portance that anyone showing
signs of continuing disorder of
the lungs have special examina-
tions made to determine whether
or not cancer is present.
One of these involves the use of
the bronchoscope, an instrument
made up of a tube with lights that
can be passed into the lung. A bit
of tissue can be removed through
the bronchoscope and examined
under a microscope to determine
if cancer is present.
Once diagnosis of lung cancer
is made, immediate operation is
advisable in most cases. X-ray

Symptoms Of Lung Cancer

and radium treatments may also
be of some help.
The symptoms Of cancer of the
lung are due to irritation and de-
struction of a bronchus which is
one of the large tubes of the lungs.
AS the growth enlarges, the air
passage will be blocked, and there
will be stretching of the air sacs
in the lung, called emphysema.
There may also be some collapse
of the lung tissue, called atelec.
tasis.
AS the cancer invades more and
more of the lung tissue, more
severe symptoms develop such as
pain, the coughing up of large
amounts of sputum, and loss of
weight.
BY this time it may, Of course.
be too late to do much for the pa
tient. Not only will great deal Of
the lung have been destroyed by
the widespreading growth, but
cells from this original cancer may
have travelled through the blood
stream to the brain or spinal C, I'd,
setting up new malignancies there.
This process of sending out new
colonies of cancer cells to other To-
cations is known as metastasis. 1t
may occur with almost any cancer
but is especially likely in cancer
of the lungs.
This is the dreadful course of
this dreadful disease and nothing
could emphasize more strongly the
urgent need for its early discovery
or bring home more forcibly the
fact that any one who suffers from
a persistent cough should lose no
time in consulting a doctor.
