FRUDAY, MARCH 6, 1936 NEW THEORY GIVEN ON CANCER'S CAUSE New York Doctor Says It May | Be Disorder of ‘Internal Balancing Mechanism’ New York, Mar. 6.—A new working hypothesis on the cause of canser. based on experimental evidence, was presented last week at a symposium on the cause of cancer at the New York Academy of Medicine by Dr. James B, Murphy of the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research. Among those who participated in the symposium were Dr. Clara J.! Lynch, also of the Rockefeller In-| stitute, who uiscussed the hereditary factors involved in cancer, and Dr. Francis Carter Wood, director of the Crocker Institute for Cancer Re- search, Columbia University, who dis- cussed the chemical factors. Dr. Hal- sey J. Bagg, Dr. Jacob Furth and Dr. James Ewing led the discussion. According to Dr. Murphy there is evidence to justify the hypothesis that there exists in the body “an in- ternal balancing mechanism which normally controls growth and special- ization in tissue.” This internal bal- ancing mechanism is governed by two factors—an inhibitor that checks growth and a stimulator that en- hances it. Internal Balancing Mechanism Cancer, which manifests itself by Mrs. Lucinda Bailey Has Has 184 Descendants ago Williams condemned the Non- League administration.” Ole B. Stray of Stanley, state repre- sentative, supported passage of the resolution. “If we're going to go progressive na- tionally, this is the only way we can de it,” he shouted. “We've got to be- come progressive nationally sooner or later or we won't exist anymore.” Some delegates pointed out en- dorsement of the move would be “em- barrassing” in the light of the fall campaign when the League “would be running as Republican.” Only Handful Present On a division vote, the first called for in the convention, 22 delegates supported the resolution. Elwood Eck, member of the executive committee and acting as chairman, began count- stn seater reat aati aa oxi “ don’t have to count; there are too many standing against it.” A moment later, the amended reso- lution endorsing the “principle” of the movement nationally was passed.

G. B. Trohne, chief of the AAA‘s livestock division, said about.the same uncontrolled growth of undifferen- tlated cells, is the product, according to Dr. Murphy’s hypothesis, of a breakdown in the internal balancing mechanism. This breakdown might “possibly be a loss of the inhibitor or an accumulation of the stimulator.” According to this hypothesis, Dr. Murphy said, the malignant condi- tion is considered as easen- anne in the cell itself, and is not the of an infectious agent intro- faved from the outside. “There is a certain amount of di- rect evidence that such a balanced system exists,” Dr. Murphy stated. Spenmann and his school, in work on embryos of the lower forms, have shown that a factor may be extracted structure, which, if injected into an- other area, will cause the local cells to multiply and form the predestined structure of the original area, Spenmann has designated these ex- tracted factors as “organizers.” His studies further indicate the presente of an inhibitor in the normal cells. “The stimulating factor appears not only to cause growth but also to de- termine the type of differentiation of the cells. The “organizers” may be obtained free from the cells and may be carried in series. Inhibitor Held Extractable “Our own work at the Rockefeller Institute gives considerable evidence of an inhibitor extractable from nor- mal cells. From the more actively growing tissues, which possess greater growth and energy and where greater control would be required, we have been able to extract an inhibitor which has a definite retarding action in [O2. the growth of transplanted and ‘spontaneous tumors.” ‘There were indications, Dr. Murphy said, that in the case of the chicken tumors the breakdown in the bal- ancing mechanism was due to an in- crease in the stimulating factor. On the other hand, the case of mammal- jan tumors, the indications are that the break in balance is due to loss of the inhibitor. What brings about the hypothetical loas of balance can only be speculated on, Dr. Murphy pointed out. “Per- haps,” he said, “an occasional cell, o> group of cells, after a prolonged sub- jection to strain or unfavorable en- vironmental conditions, react and pro- duce mutants. That this is in the general nature of a mutation is indi- cated by the fact that malignancy be- comes @ fixed character.” CONTINUED from page one: i .

It is expected from 1,500 to 2,000 will seek to exchange their bonus for North Da- kota farms. ‘N. D. Behind Times’ North Dakota is “at least” 15 years behind in farm building construction, Wood said, and as a result new build- ings may have to be erected on many of the farms made available for vet- erans if the project is approved by the federal administration. Wood prom- ised his support to the proposal. ‘The farms would probably range from 40 to 80 acres in rich loam areas near the larger markets, to 400 acres in grazing country in the western part of the state, it was said at the close of the session. Kibler urged posts of all the vet- erans organizations and individual veterans who receive questionnaires during the survey to report on them at once, so that the project, if ac- cepted, can be gotten under way in time for this year’s crops.

GROUP URGES FARM PROGRAM SIMPLICITY Reduction of Administrative Detail and Expense Sought by Leaders Simplification of administrative rulings to avoid unnecessary detail and reduce expense has been recom- mended in a joint resolution by the North Dakota wheat and corn-hog committeemen and the Farmers Union as being a desired change necessary for the complete success of the government's substitute AAA pro- gram. “Unnecessary detail injected into the administration of the only serves to confuse the farmer and re expense which the farmer must to the resolution vopoted at a recent meeting at Jamestown. “We urge the utmost simplicity in the framing of the ad- ministrative rulings to avoid unneces- sary details in forms and adminstra- tive documents.” The group also urged that a larger measure of administrative responsi- bility be placed on the state grain board and county administrative units so that a complete understand- ing of the local condition might be in the hands of the administrators. Other recommendations were that the data gathered for the 1936 pro- gram be used in making out the new forms; that an acreage be allocated for soil improving purposes at least equal to the combined reduction of acreage under the old program and that the rental payments be at least equal to the total benefits under the old program; and the decentralization of auditing, otherwise the records, ‘The group also urged the protection of the tenant in the matter of ben- efit payments on a basis of equaity with the landlord.

Freddie Bartholomew PHOTOS ARE SHOWN AT BANISTER TRIAL Mounted Police Visualize and Tell of Murder Scene in Canada Backwoods Dorchester, N. B., March 6.—(7)— Photographs of a snowdrift, stained for “about six feet around” by the blood of Mrs. Marshall Ring, were en- tered as exhibits Friday at the mur- der trial of youthful Arthur Ban- nister. The pictures were submitted by two Royal Canadian Mounted Police con- stables who described the scene when they arrived last Jan. 7 at Pacific Junction where Philip Lake had been shot and left to die in his flaming cabin, The body of Mrs. Ring, known to neighbors as Bertha Lake, was found outside the home where she appar- ently had been struck over the head as she fled with her 21-month-old son. The youngster’s body, frozen, was found near that of the mother. The witnesses, Constable A. J. Ew- ing and Sergeant B. G. Peters, also told of searching the cabin ruins for the body of Lake’s younger child, 6- month-old Betty, later found at the home of Bannister’s mother, charged with kidnaping the child. The prosecution established through the testimony of Frances Bannister, 15-year-old sister of Arthur, Thurs- day that she carried Lake’s infant daughter Betty early in the morning of Jan. 6 from the squatter’s cabin to her home. Arthur Bannister, 19, is being tried for the slaying of Lake. His brother, Daniel, 20, also faces a murder charge and both are accused of kidnaping and abduction. Their mother, Mrs. Ray Bannister, is charged with kidnaping and abduc- tion, the prosecution contending ‘she sought a baby to place two men friends under obligation.
