Many Cancer
Victims Can
Be Cured

CHICAGO - The story of
Lester B. Granger, one of the
100000 living Americans who
have been cured of cancer, is
told in the April issue of
EBONY.
Granger, the 61-year old
Executive Director of the Ma
tional Urban League was
struck with cancer in 1949. He
underwent surgery and treat
ment which saved him, and he
was pronounced cured of can
Ger after being free of the dis
ease for five years.
According to the American
=
Cancer Society, over four mil
lion Negroes now living in this
country will at some time in
their lives be struck by can
Ger, and assuming the present
mortality rate continues, two
million of this number will die
of the disease. With knowledge
and means available, says
EBONY, half of all cancer
cases can be cured if victims
seek treatment in time and
can get it.
Oranges recovery from can
Ger and his return to a busy
creative ife spiritually undis-
mayed and physically unim-
paired, was a quiet drama in
which courage, understanding,
faith, and notably medical sci
ence played important roles.
Of the EBONY article, DR..
w. Kenneth Clark, Vice Presi-
dent for Medical Affairs of
the American Cancer Society
says: ''The inspiring article
about Lester Changers victory
over cancer in the April issue
of EBONY reconfirms our
knowledge that many cancers
can be cured. In fact, there
are 100000 Americans alive
today, many of them Negroes
- who have been saved from
this disease. If the readers of
EBONY take to heart the OPP
timistic message. in this i'm
portant article, it may mean
the saving of many lives"
Granger is grateful to sci
ence, he relates in the EBONY
article, for having conquered
the cancer in his own body not
merely because it prolonged
his life but also because it
might give hope to others.

What has happened to give
back to these one-time rulers
of the plains their pride In
themselves?
In July, 1887. We Shake
Hands began in the Omaha
community.
We Shake Hands is an effort
to end the social and spiritual
isolation of the tribal COM
munity Of the Great Plains by
encouraging friendly relations
between them and the white
communities around them.
It's the idea Of the Associa-
ton on American Indian At
fairs, a national organization
of Indians and non-Indians
with headquarters in New York.
The Field Foundation is help
ing finance it.
But the action is being taken
by the Indians themselves-and
that's why the We Shake Hands
idea is working. Previous at

what to do, or because not all

Because their sense Of inade-
quacy was greater. the men
came around TO 1t more slowly.
The former mighty hunters had
seen their role as family pro-
tector shrink, even as their land
had shrunk-from 100000 to

but the men finally got to-
gether TO plan a speakers bu-
reau. Now they are working
on the unemployment program.
Out Of this awakening faith
in themselves came the Oma-
has idea for a long-range plan
for economic and political inde-
pendence. They asked the as
ISOLATION to help them develop
1t.
Says Laverne Madigan, the
associations executive director:
1.-THE Omahas have been pro-
PEELED to action by restoration
of faith in their community's
adequacy to act, and by asser-
ton of their right to survive as
American citizens in commune
ties of their own people.
This moral strength will not
long endure unless the survival
of the community is made eco
nomically possible. If nothing
is done to stay the loss of Oma-
ha lands and to pump economic
life into the community. the
Omahas will not simply vanish
from Macy. They will squat
there in a social grouping which
has no name and which does
not belong in America"

1.-THE Omaha community has

There has been sickness and
