<
Isn't it about time that the medical profession stopped farting
around and finally found a cure for cancer?
<
There has been enough suffering, enough heartbreak and enough
agony -- never ending  -- since a so-called "serious effort" was
lauched many, many decades ago to identify the killer and end
ountless pain and grief.
<
Sometimes I serously wonder if a cure for cancer has long been
known but couldn't possibly be pursued because it would slow
to a crawl the gold rush into by the deep pockets of those running
the health and pharmaceutical industries.
<
It is high time for officials of the American Cancer Society and the
entire medical profession to shape up or ship out. If it were any
other industry, they'd have long been selling apples on the corner.
<
It is a complete disgrace that there has been virtually NO PROGRESS
in preventing and curing cancer -- with very few exceptions --
since only God knows when.
<
A major shakeup in battling the dreaded disease is needed and,
indeed, necessary.
<
=================
<
Here's an article stating that the American Cancer Society was
winning the war against cancer, but it actually has made llittle or no
progress toward victory since it  was written -- and appeared, mostly
on tjhe front pages of newspapers throughout the nation -- in 1954.
<
<               PREDICTS CANCER WILL BE LICKED
<
New hope for cancer victims is seen in a report by one of the nation's
leading medical writers who predicts that cancer finally will be
licked by a "huge armamentarium of powerful chemicals."
<
Marguerite Clark, medicine editor of Newsweek Magazine, writing in the
May 17 issue of that publication, summarizes her observations of a
recent nationwide tour of cancer research centers conducted by the
American Cancer Society.
<
She reported that during the past year for the first time, great
emphasis has been placed on drug research than on the two standard
forms of treating cancer, surgery and radiation.
<
She found evidence that chemicals are successfully treating several
types of cancer, prolonging lives and alleviating pain.
<
Mrs., Clark writes that the most heart-warming breakthrough in the
cancer fight is that against acute leukemia in young children.
<
Treated by a series of drugs in many cancer treatment centers,
children afflicted with still-incurable leukemia have won stays from
death, in some cases for two or three years.
<
She calls this a "significant step ahead in the cancer battle."
<
Doctor J. Williams Jones, radiologist and chairman of public relations
of the Schuylkill County unit of the American Cancer Society in
Pottsville, Pa., was delighted.
<
"This is one of the finest summaries of cancer research to be
published in recent years," he said. " It is a hopeful and honest
review of the progress being made in the nation's laboratories against
cancer.
<
Newsweek, in a profile of Mrs. Clark, credits the article as
originating from the American Cancer Society's coast to cost fact-
finding tour for science writers.
<
The magazine predicts that its writer "had been among the first to see
several research projects which will win Nobel prizes in years to
come."
