VORONOFF'S TREATMENT ENGLISHWOMEN'S TENDENCY LONDON, August 3 Englishwomen who seek to renew their youth by grafting with monkey glands far outnumber women who do so in any other country, according to Professor Voronoff, who is visiting London. "Women in other countries are satisfied if their faces look young," said the professor. "Englishwomen, on the other hand, must be young, as they wish to play golf, hunt, and dance on level terms with their daughters, and sometimes their grand-daughters. They want strength as well as beauty. "There is no reason why men and women should not live to the age of 140. Women have the better chance because of their easier and more natural lives. My observations show that most animals live seven times the period it takes them to develop fully. A human being, living in open, natural, surroundings, with only the basic emotions — love, laughter and tears —should live seven times 20 years. "It is possible for a woman after n painless half-hour of surgery to regain 15 years of her life." Professor Voronoff added that 10 men undergo his treatment to every one woman.
