Disorders Leading to Cancer

By Herman N. Bundeaen, M. D. LONG observation has taught medical men lo recognize <-eetaln nondatal conditions as fueeruntiers of the deadly cancer. Thia Is a vastly hopeful and important advance Today, cancer is second only to diseases of the heart and blood vessels a* to a cause of death. Yet, this mortality rate might be materially reduced, according to Dr. Hugh ft. Spencer if the University of Maryland, by eliminating these prveam eroua condition* By precancerous la meant tliat which precedes or comes before cancer -conditions which may, or da inevitably lead to cancer. Skin Condition For example, there Is a condition of the akin known as actinic dermatosis, a skin Infiaiamstiou resetting from exceealve prolonged - expert ur<- to saalight. Dr. Spencer Imlieves that Invariably this condition progresses from Intern ma lieu of the skin and overgrowth of the tissues to the develotanent of skin cancer. Heme, the Removal of these overgrowths of tissue before they have become capicereus is an Itn portant preventive measure. About one out of every five cases of skin caacer of the scalp and anas and legs develop in old scars of burns or uloera. Sebaceous cysts at the skin which are swellings, contatalag a fatty material, develop into caacer In alarut one out cd twentydive, according to Dr. TliUh, Ummmi ftkUi <U»* treatment Igy the physician so that danger of caacer ic removed

Hundreds reflect the desire of cougreMiuiw. up for re-election, to win constituent support by gaining home plums through federal legislation -0 e The Red Cross still lacks about 14,000 of meeting its quota. This 1* the last week of the drive, so if we want tbe county to come through with flying colors, work toward that end must tie done ut once. It you haven't been solicited, send your contribution io the Imai Red ('roes office. The largest part of this year's budget remains here for carrying out the home service program and aiding returning veterans and their families We should not falter in our obligations to them. -0 Sen. Magnusson of Washington state, in a Jackson day spee< It, described Great Britain as a "second rate" power. He said that the United States would sot ally herself with either Great Britain or Russia, but with all tbe United Nations. "The American goal Is to form au alliance with the United Nations and to take the lead ership of the UNO. That is the hope of the little people of the world.” The northwest statesman who has a knack for speaking plainly also said, "The United States and Russia are the great iwwers of the world. There never can Im- another war unless Russia and the U. 8. participate." Dm- of the surest things iu this present world is tlrnt no individual or group wants war. There arc individuals ami groups that would tike to see various adjustments made in geographical boundaries and tbe processes by which nations deal with each other; but In geo eial there are. adequate means of readjusting any »nch wrongs or inequalities as may need attention. And fortunately there Is right now. in tfea meeting of the United Nations Security Council in .New York, the imst possible means of bringing these matters to the atteutiou ol tbe civilised world in general, it would be folly for statesmen to ignore such practical opportunities as have been presented for the civilised world in general, when nations are poised. so to speak, between wars, and when the world iu general is no eager for peace.

Result of Childbirth In the case of women, tears of the lower part of the womb which occurs as a result of childbirth also may be factors in producing cancer, if they are neglected. Hence. It Is Dr. Spencer's opinion that cancer of the womb can be reduced In frequency by proper treatment of these tears. Furthermore, women past < f > years of age should be regularly examined at least once every six months so that should cancer develop it may he detected early and operation performed at once. During this examination, if any suspicious growth Is seen, a bit of the tissue may be removed and examined under the microscope In order to make certain of the diagnosis. Breast Cancer Cancer of the breast In women with chronic Mtaminatlon of the breast Is frost two to four times as frequent as in women with normal breasts. However, there is uo means known for telling In Just ■ which cases the cancer may develop. If there is any doubt, a bit of the hreaat tissue may also be removed for examination under i the microscope. How good to know that caneer i can be forestalled, scotched before t it caa begin to develop. But here. . as always where caacer Is concerned. "prompt" and "early” are the words of hope. They are hope- . ful words even after It occurs be- • ususe with Immediate treatment 1 many lives can still be saved. I (Copyright. W4d. Klug Features Syndicate. Inc.)

CHAPTER FORTY THE NEXT day. when Justice itili wan In New York, Mary came into the office and asked, "Interrupting you, Jenny?" Jenny said, "No" politely, and took her hands off the keys. Mary walked around the little room. She asked, "When's Ede gotag?" w • „ , "Monday." "I hope she’ll be happy," said Mary. She came up to the desk and smiled. She wore a white tweed suit and a high-necked black cashmere sweater. She carried a black bag. and wore sheer stockings—nylons, thought Jenny, sighing—and black suede shoes. She was very tanned and her lipstick was brilliant She asked, "Aren’t you excited about the hospital?" Jenny nodded. She said, "It’s what we’ve always needed." "It will be splendid for Steve," said Mary. “CM course, you know, he’s a very clever guy. Too clever to be mewed up In a little dump like thia." ■He’s needed, too," Jenny said. "I dare say." Mary shrugged. ■But it seems too bad.. He’s had a chance to get out, make something of himself. He could have a very fine practice, with the right backing." ■Meaning ?" asked Jenny. < , ( "Me," said Mary, and smiled. Jenny raised her eyes and looked at her. She asked slowly, "You—and Steve?" Mary shrugged. She said casually, "Don't Jump to conclusions. But I could help him, if he could be persuaded to leave Seahaven." Jenny asked, "And the hospital?" "1 fancy," said Mary, "it would function without him." At the door, »he said. "You’d heard that Andrea Is coming home ? Perhaps she’s decided on a retake. In any case, discretion is Indicated until Justice learns whether she intends to call it a day, or until death do them pan. I just thought you like to know." “Thanks," said Jenny, breathing a tittle hard, her cedar high. After Mary left, she picked up a pencil and drew doodles. Some were fierce round cats with whiskers; others skinny little devils with pitchforks. She thought. Well, uhat was that about? So Seahaven to holding Steve back from a great career. Nuts, Jenny informed herself; his career’s right here. She doesn't intend to marry him—even if he’d say yes. Jenny thought, with an irrepressible giggle, but If be decided to hang up his shingle in New York she could send him all the Best People. And he'd be so grateful. It’s a pretty picture. As for Justice, I’m to play mousie.,,. And that’s quaint, too, e e e Andrea Hathaway returned by Clipper and Justice met her at the field. They went directly to his father’s apartment and Mr. Hathaway was pathetically happy to see hto daughter-in-law. She was the one person in the world for whom be had entire respect and selfless affection. On the following day they came to Seahaven, arriving in the evening, and the next morning, when Justice came to the office, Andrea was with him. They walked la. and Jenny looked up, startled, from her work and!

ruse. Andrea was a much too slender woman, and her face was haggard. She had such distinction that you did not notice her clothes. You saw only the fine, clear bone structure, and the candid, luminous and friendly eyes. Justice made the presentations, and Andrea put her hand in Jenny’s. A test momenta later she looked at her husband gravely. She said, “Run along, Justice. 1 want to speak to Jenny." He looked anxious and sheepish, hto poise evaporating. Andrea smiled. She looked younger then, her face illuminated. She said gently, “Don’t worry." He said, with awkward heartiness, “Okay! Hl leave you girls to yourselves,“ and went into his office and shut the door. Andrea sat down on the straight chair by the desk and looked at Jenny. She said, "Justice has told me about you." Jenny said, "There isn’t much to tell." Andrea smiled. She said, "Don’t be on the defensive, my dear. You are very young, and pretty—and untouched. After Justice met me, we had a long talk. He said, at once, that he had become interested in someone else. And so, be wished a divorce." “But," said Jenny, scarlet, "I don’t want. . . that to, I haven’t—" "I know," said Andrea. "He admitted that you had refused to consider marrying him tn the event of a divorce. I came here to ask you something. Are you in love with him? Is it because of—me that you refuse? Now that I’ve seen you I realize that it might be," she added. "I wasn’t sure at first." Jenny shook her head, with violence. The sun danced on her hair I and it seemed to Andrea tnat , sparks flew. She said, "Mrs. Hathai way, please believe me, I’m not in ■ love with him; I wouldn’t marry ■ him if he had never had a wife! i When I first came to work for him, I I—well, gosh,” said Jenny, "you i know how It to. Big shot, glamor, i and ali that. It wasn't serious, it was just fun. It made the work ; basier, and as far as he was concerned he didn’t know I was alive. And then," she added soberly, ’’when he did, I—" she looked at . Andrea directly—"l wasn't having ' any. Not on account of you," she added hardily, "although of course ' it should have been. It was just ... the way I felt . . . and because," she toid Andrea, “there's , someone else." "I see." Andrea was quiet Then i she said, "I came back to ask Jusi tice if he wanted to try again.

"And then when my baby wss born 1 transferred all my affection, 1 believed he would ibe compensation—l didn’t think Justice worth my misery.
