Radium Victims Doomed to Die <.—
With but One Year to Live Five Giris Seek Life Desires. New York.—. Just across the Hudson river, in Orange, N. J., five young women, free, life-loving, apparently healthy, are doomed to die. They are guilty of nothing, but their fate is more irrevocably fixed than if the nations highest court had sentenced them. Apparently healthy? Yes. But in each of them courses a miimte v bit of that most valuable, most mysterious, most deadly substance In the world—radium I “A year to live." the doctors said. And that was sis months ago. They were given Sld.iMXt each by the company in whose service they had invited death. And now the world is watching the enacted answer to that hitherto academic question: “What would you do if you were given a fortune and a year to live?” Poisoned in War Work. The story of their poisoning has been tnld. But the manner in which they have chosen to spend their precious interim—an unmatched study in the' variety of human character and Ideals—ls reported for the first time in an article in the Cosmopolitan. The five are Mrs. Quinta McDonald I and Mrs. Albina Larice, sisters: Miss Katherine Schaub. Mrs. Edna Husstnan and Miss Grace Fryer. As girls, in their teens, they worked during the war in a New .Jersey factory. Their job was to paint those radignt dials op wrist watches for the doughboys in France. Whether or not they were instructed not to “point” their tiny brushes with their lips has never been satisfactorily settled. But the fact is that they did touch the. brushes, bearing a radium composition, to their lips frequently during the day. One Finds Poems a Refuge. It was in 1925 that the death of the French chemist. Demenitroux, aide of Mme. Curie, discoverer of radium, was traced to his laboratory experiments, and science’s attention was directed to all who had been in contact with the substance. Examination convinced scientists that rhe five New Jersey women were doomed. Suits followed, which were settled in June. 1928. for $10,900 casn to each, with an additional monthly remittance during their lives To them SIO,OOO was fortune. What, would they #lo before the year of grace reached its tragic end? How would they face that year of opulence — tragically, recklessly, hopefully, dispassionately? Katharine Schaub, youngest of the quintet, is realizing an ambition, repressed during the years’of necessary factory work, to read, to write poetry. The Cosmopolitan writer found her hidden away in a farmhouse In the Catskills, surrounded by a new. but carefu’ly selected, library, drinking in the rustic beauty she ° had never known before, making herself loved « among her farm neighbors. But first she had taken up a mortgage on her father’s little home tn Newark. Mrs. Edna Htissman had wanted all her life two things—leisure and music. She has her leisure, tragically

Mrs. Larice through her girlhood had longed for and dreamed of distant horizons and far places. But always there had been the necessity of work and never the money to travel. Her first exi>euditure from the SIO,OOO was for a comfortable car and a long, gypsy-like tour of Canada. But to her sister, Mrs. McDonald, the money only meant increased tragedy. Immediately the check arrived her husband quit his job to enjoy the sudden affluence. When she protested, there were quarrels; finally a separation. Her one concern now is for her two small children, and for their education the bulk of her money has been transferred to a trust fund. But the fifth and last fights back at fate. No acceptance of science’s word for Grace Fryer. She holds her job with a Newark trust company, her money Invested as though she were , providing against a ripe old age. Her outlook is unchanged.

But Dr. Harrison S.

But the constant bombardment of the alpha rays emanating from the salts eventually breaks down the blood-forming centers. Anemia develops and the condition spreads.” Science knows what occnrs. but it doesn’t know —yet, at least—how to forestall or remedy it. “Nothing we know will counteract the condition,” says Doctor M-rtland.
