hides in some rays. For this rea-
son, the American Cancer society
say, this week, many industrial
workers, Negro and white, have
a big stake in cancer control.
1t behooves organized labor, as
well as management, to establish
safeguards for workers, the ACS
asserts.
More than 200 substances have
been found to produce cancer if
they are allowed to irritate GER
tain organs of the body. These
chemicals and compounds, known
as carcinogens Cancer producing
substances) include principally the
by-products of coal, such as tar,
SCOT, pitch and anthracene; petro-
leum and it's products, arsenic
and dye-stuffs, the rays from ra-
dunn, x-rays and products of
atomic fission.
DR.. John E. Moseley, nationally
known Negro radiologist at Mt.
Sinai and Sydenham hospitals in
New York City, pointed out that
workers in industries using tar
may have a higher than normal
incidence if they do not have
habits of cleanliness and personal
hygiene.
Workers in the coke, coal gas,
road making, cable, tile manufac-
turing and boat building occupa-
tons are often exposed to cancer
producing chemicals.

Lenore deGra;nge, IS.
Child Theater Friend ,
Found Dead in Home

| Miss Lenore Marie deGrange,
who gave up a promising stage
career and brought love of the
theater to hundreds of Washington
children, was found dead in her
home yesterday. She was about IS.
! She was discovered on the land
ing of the stairs in the house at
1855 Kilbourne place NV. by Miss
Violet W. Pierson, 1901 Lamont
street NV. a lifelong friend, and
Robert Nicely, a neighbor of Miss
deGrange.
Miss Pierson said she had stopped
by the house yesterday morning
after church to call on her friend,
who had been i'll for several days.
Finding the door locked, Miss Pier
son said she went home and tried
several times to call Miss deGrange
on the telephone.
She became alarmed when she re-
ceived no answer and called Mr..
Neely, who broke the lock on the
door. Miss Pierson said Miss de-
GRANGE had apparently fallen down
the stairs to the landing on which
was found.
Native of West Virginia.
Her body was taken to the Dis
trict Morgue, where an autopsy was
| to be performed today. Death was
believed to have resulted from nat
ural causes.
| Miss deGrange was native OF
Martinsburg. w. Va. She came to
Washington as young girl with
her parents. Her father, Col. Will
liam deGrange, served 43 years in
the War Department.
Miss deGrange had studied dra-
mates and had her heart set on a
stage career. She obtained an au-
dition with David Belasco in New
York, who offered to help her
achieve her ambition. She gave up
her career because of her mother
who was suffering at the time from
tuberculosis.
Organized Children's Players.
All her life she retained her inter-
est in the theater. She organized
many groups of children's players
here and occasionally performed in
amateur productions.
Last year she gave dramatic read
ings of religious play The Chris
tus" by Mrs. John Jay White, in
several Washington churches.
Miss Pierson said her friend had
given instructions that she wished
to be buried in the white satin cos
tune she wore OH those occasions.
The details of the funeral have not
yet been arranged.
Miss deGrange had lived alone
since the death of her parents few
years ago. She has no known close
