trol of Cancer, said today. He spoke at a forum held this morning at the Regional Assembly of the Women's Field Army for Cancer Control and was to speak at a. noon luncheon. Representatives from Ohio, West ' Virginia, Michigan and Indiana are attending sessions which opened yesterday in the Claypool Hotel and will continue through this afternoon. “The health of those in military establishments, of the workers in the factories and industries is obviously of immense importance,” he said, “while only of slightly less direct influence on the situation is the. health of their families, relatives and dependents whose illness would handicap and damage all efforts -at national preparedness. or aid for Europe.” “We are consistently told that our man power is not needed,” he said “but that our material resources are absolutely essential if Great Britain and her allies are to survive. . . » The immense amount of activity by citizens especially women, along the lines of routine preparation of supplies and equipment which could be done much more rapidly and effectively by machines, is an example of the fact that we have not yet thought out carefully those activities in their relationships to the other obligations with which we are faced.”

Largest Menace

He pointed out that cancer is perhaps the greatest of all diseases which cripple and weaken the working power, not only of the individuals, but of their families. The cancer problem will remain the largest single domestic menace to America’s effective participation in preparedness and in co-operation with the other Democratic counties, according to Dr. Little. : “Your share,” he explained, “consists in contacting your nearest unit of the Women’s Field Army or the. Society and informing yourselves concerning the signs and symptoms that mean cancer and then passing this information along to others.” . The quality of research in the Axis countries had deteriorated markedly and laboratory workers have been absorbed in the war machine, he said, and research in Britain is under fierce and destructive attack. He pointed out that the burden for the preservation of scientific knowledge rests fairly and fully with this country. He urged that women help by gifts to institutions where research on cancer is carried on or by supporting public budgets which provide adequate appropriations: for the maintenance of such work.

Mrs. Tllig Speaks

Mrs. Marjorie B. Iilig, national commander of the Women’s Field Army, also was to speak at today’s luncheon. She presided at a breakfast this morning. She asked that the cancer control message reach all races, classes, colors and creeds and that special emphasis be placed on the value of a general physical examination. “It is very hard,” she said, “to convince men and women who feel in the best of health that it is important to have, once a year at least, a complete checkup by a competent physician. But we must not forget that our foe is a stealthy one, it has rightfully been called

‘the fifth column disease.”

Emphasizes Education

Dr. W. W. Bauer, Chicago, director of the bureau of health education of the American Medical Association, urged the women to place emphasis on education at last night’s Assembly dinner in the Riley Room. Public education, he said, is more constructive in the prevention of the cancer than actual care of the sick. Dr. Frank Adair, New York, chairman of the executive committee of the society, and Governor Henry PF. Schricker also spoke. Mrs. V. E. Holcombe, Huntington, W. Va., president of the Women’s Auxiliary, American Medical Assocjation, was to talk at today’s lunchevn. H. B. Lovins, director of publicity from West Virginia, was to conduct a forum this afternoon and Dr. John W. Ferree, director of the Indiana State Board of Health, was to lead a discussion of the relationship of the Field Army to the State and National Health Departments.
