The cure is comparatively easy, T>r. J. K. McGregor of Ontario, Canada, told the convention. In fact, goiter theraphy was one of the most successful in modern surgery, he declared. In seven years the mortality rate was reduced from about 5 to 1 per cent of the cases treated, he pointed out. Dr. Reinhoff estimated that 96 per cent of his cases had been treated successfully. In 'the matter of prevention, the association has made great strides. lodized salt is being fed to thousands of children in areas where goiter is prevalent.

By United Press EL PASO, Tex., April 24.—A highway of adventure will be mapped out by three Los Angeles youths as they travel over a 11,000-mile pack trip through Latin-America. Heading the youthful adventurers on their 18-months’ trip is William J. Robinson, 24. He is accompanied by his brother, E. H. Robinson, 21, and J. R. Kane, 26. The two brothers formerly lived in New York and Kane formerly lived in, Cleveland, but in recent months they have made their homes in Los Angeles. They will begin the pack trip proper about the first of May. From ; Tapachula they will travel toward the west coast with their burros, following the coast to the Panama canal. The youths will be trail blazers much as the early pioneers that made their way over this conitnent years ago. One of the objects of the trip is to map an automobile highway south of Mexico. When they reach the South American continent, they will journey down the west coast to La Paz, then cross the Andes into Argentina, go to Buenos Aores, then to Montevideo and back up to Rio De Janeiro, where they expect to take a steamer to New York.
