LONG MARTYRDOM
Sufferings of French Radiologist RESEARCH TO THE LAST Bv Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright. (Received Dec. 22, 10.15 pm.) Paris, Dee. 22. His lifelong martyrdom in the cause of science is among the subjects of tributes paid to the memory of the great French radiologist, George Sliaret, who died while studying to the last the effects of disease in his own flesh contracted by a radium burn during war-time. He underwent many operations, but continued his work of radium research, to which his sufferings seemed only a further incentive. After one of the severest operations President Douiner visited the hospital and pinned the cross of the Legion of Honour on his breast.
