Cancer Drive Is
On During April

| Ever see 3U-1oOt, l,OUO pound
man? You probably won't-but by
injecting pure growth hormone ex-
tracted from the pituitary gland
they're growing healthy rats up to
| five times their normal size.
Ever think that an extra 40
pounds would give you a Is per cent
greater chance of having cancer
than if you were underweight? It
wou d, according to statistical
studies of cancer.
Ever see a man walking - with,
by volume, most of his abdominal
organs removed? They do-thanks
to new surgical techniques.
Ever think there was a relation
ship between nerves and cancer?
BY cutting sympathetic nerve, one
scientist causes tremendous cancers
to develop in one type of giant
cockroach.
Ever think a virus could remain
harmless for long periods of time
then become a rapacious killer |
because an infinitely small amount |
of calcium is added to the solution |
in which it exists? It does.
Ever think mouse could be dy- |
ing a massive, ugly cancer-and |
be apparently healthy and frisky, |
with the tumor gone, a couple of |
days later? That's happening
thanks to injections of a spleen ex-
tract
Ever think a human cancer pa
tent, dying in great pain, could be
sent back to normal existence bv
a poison gas? That hap
al
suits, SO far, are temporary.
Ever think that such innocent
things as the suns rays, x-rays,
SCOT, oil, constant physical irrita-
ion and continual burning of GER
tam tissues could cause cancer?
Under some conditions, they will.
Ever think that many of the
Kings that cause cancer are used
o treat CONGRATULATIONS and GER
ain chemicals, for example?
Ever know that by repeated
)rother-to-sister mating of cancer
,uS mice, cancer bearing strains can
)e developed? ;
Ever know that cancer-free mice s
an be nursed by mothers with
,reast cancer, and the young mice
will develop cancer?
Ever know that cancer can be I
aused in the offspring by merely ]
mating two particular kinds of fish? !
These and other phenomena are
