CANCER CURE
NOT YET CERTAIN. BUT HOPEFUL WORK BEING DONE. (United Press Association—By CableCopyright.) (Received 1, 8.30 a.m.) London, March 31. Sir Arthur Keith, interviewed by the “Daily Express,” said: “I beg you not to raise false hopes regarding a cure for cancer. There are 100,000 suffering in Britain and the mass appeals following every ill-judged declaration of a cure are pitiful. Nevertheless, a young scientist at the Royal College of Surgeons has got hold of something big towards control of the growth and is now working with parathyroid extracts. This means in his experiment on animals that he can develop and retard the growth as he wishes. Whether the discovery will ultimately lead to control of this malignant growth remains to be seen.”
