Money Well
Spent In War
On Cancer
sy Mardo Williams
Financial Writer,
Columbus DiSnntch

The public gets its moneys
worth in donations to the war
on cancer.
More than &c cents Of every
dollar contributed by Franklin
County residents to the Ameri-
can Cancer Society goes direct
ly into the battle on the worlds
most dread disease.
The big portion - 48 cents
Is used for research. Another
26.1 cents goes for education.
Up-to-Dafe Information
And 81 cents is spent to pro-
vide nurses, dentists, doctors
and others in fields allied to
medicine with up-to-date infor-
nation on cancer advances.
This assures a patient that
when he is treated for cancer
he gets the best treatment.
Only IL cents of each dollar
Is spent for Embarrassing. The
maximum under the city solicit
tations ordinance is 20 per cent.
Administrative costs of the
Franklin County Unit took on
ly 81 cents last year.
Service requires ST. per cent
of total contributions. This fig.
ure is low because other agen.
cies in the county do some OF
the things which normally fall
into the service program Of an
Independent agency.
Efficient use of contributions,
the treasurer explains in his
annua' report, is aided by eff,
forts Of a large number of vol
unteers. All such work cuts
down on expenses and makes
more funds available for can
Ger control.
The treasurer reports month
ly. When the fiscal year end;
in August, the books are audit
ed by an accounting firm.
Mistakes in disbursements
never occur. One factor is the
requirement for three sigma
lures on every check - those

the support of postgraduate

p~roximately 5000 gallons of air.
Thus, our lungs are one of our
main contacts with the outside
world, and it behooves us to
keep our lungs in the best pos.

When the air contains impur.
tiles such as dust or smoke, the
normal lungs ordinarily have
ways of getting rid of these,
This is done by coughing or by
the action of millions of small
whip-like processes lining the
bronchial tubes.
Can Lead TO Cancer
When these impurities are in.

in the bronchial lining and in
the lungs which eventually re,
suit in disability and illness. II
the impurities contain cancer
producing substances, prolonged
or continuous exposure to these
substances can lead to cancer.
Scientific studies have been
directed toward understanding
the cause of lung cancer. There
are two major sources of can.

air about us. The first and prob.
ably minor factor is that Of
pollution of the air by indus,

Traditionally the Cancer Crusade, a joint educational
and Embarrassing activity, is held in April. This year the resi-
dental Crusade dates will be April %, 30, and 30. DR.. Jimmy

one way in which our Crusaders may have a better chance to

Cancer is many things to
many people.
By definition, cancer is a
growth of abnormal cells which
multiply without control and
which serve no useful function.
These cells invade surrounding
normal vital tissues and destroy
them. Some cells may break
away from the original site and
be carried by body fluids to dis
tant sites where they begin to
produce secondary cancers.
Even so, cancer is still many
things to many people.
VaribIe Patterns
To a medical student, cancer
is a complex set Of diseases
which follow variable patterns
which he must learn. 1t is tissue
which can be positively identi.
fled under a microscope by the
pattern which its cells assume.

To a research scientist, can
Ger is a mystery which must be
solved. What causes it, what
regulates its growth, what de
stroys it are questions which
he must answer. Each expert
ment adds further insight into
the total picture of the nature
of this disease.
To a physician, cancer is an
a~bnormality which can destroy
his patient unless the cancer
itself is first destroyed. Each
patient he sees must be consid.
cred a potential or actual vic.
tim. Those affected must be Civ.

REPORTER SEES
TANKER STOPPED
BY the Associated Press

An Associated Press reporter
photographer team patrolled
the Windward Passage off the
eastern end of Cuba in a rented
plane Friday and saw a United
States destroyer intercept and
query a Norwegian ship before
allowing it to continue.
In a dispatch from Great
Inagua Island, British West
Indies, Vern Haugland said the
destroyer raced up to the ship,
the Mylla of Oslo, with its sig
nal lamp blinking furiously.
Mr.. Haugland said the Nor
wegian vessel appeared to be
a tanker, but a ship of that
name, a dry : bulk carrier,
picked up a load of coal in
Norfolk on October % and
sailed for Japan.
Mr.. Haugland reported that
the destroyer allowed the ship
to continue and wheeled back
to resume its picket duty.
The destroyer, No. 148, was
identified in Washington as
the escort Brough.
