DR.. E. v. Cowdry, internationally
known cancer authority, today
promised new fight to win con-
gressional approval for 500, 900, {
600 research program aimed at find-
| ing a cure for the disease.
Senator Pepper, Democrat, OF
Florida has reintroduced a bill to
allot that sum over a five-yeaI
period.
Writing in the magazine Science
lDr. Cowdry said the measure =
despite the almost solid backing OF
public opinion-died last year be-
cause experts didn't agree in the
advice they gave congressional COM
mittees.
There was divided opinion on
whether a medical project could
be set up to solve cancer as the
Army's Manhattan Project was
created during the war to build
atomic bombs.
I'VE must profit now by expert
ence and frame q new cancer bill
which will pass unanimously" DR.
Cowdry wrote.
First it is essential to show to
the satisfaction of cancer experts
how 100000, 600 can be spent ad-
vantageously on cancer research
with the single purpose of over
coming the disease as quickly as
possible"
DR.. Cowdry, professor of anatomy
at Washington University, st. Louis,
outlined this six-point plan:
/. $50 100000 for creating "pilol
cancer centers" at st. Louis ano
on the West Coast, to extend can
Ger research and facilities region
ally, and for. expanding existing
cancer facilities in the East ane
other regions.
2. Open a campaign for the mobil-
ization of cancer experts and other
personnel. Scientists, he said
should not be expected to labor
merely for the love of it" but should
be paid high salaries all along
the line"
3. $60,000,00O in long-term grants
for cancer research.
4. $12,000,000 @for building and
operating an institute that would
produce the supplies and special
equipment the project might need.
