AN OVEN FORCANGERCLINI San Franciscans Support Work of Co-Discoverers of Cure Process. By the Associated Press. H DEL MONTE, Calif, May 1.—The| California Medical Association has en- tered the controversy concerning the ! Coffey-Humber cancer treatment by passing a resolution commending the co-discoverers of the process, Dr. John D. Humber and Dr. Walter B. Coffey, | both of San Francisco. | ‘With the passage here yesterday of | the resolution of commendation, formal | announcement also was made that three | wealthy San Franciscans had raised $500,000 to support the work of the Coffey-Humber Cancer Clinic in San! Francisco. The financial backers are Herbert Fleishhacker, banker; Stanley Dollar, shipping magnate. and Paul Shoup, president of the Southern Pa- cific_Railroad. ¥ Adoption of the laudatory resolution was greeted by prolonged cheers on the convention floor. It was construed as a retort to an editorial by Dr. Morris Fishbein in the current issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association expressing disappointment with “both the clinical and pathological | results” of the treatment. The resolution set forth that Coffey and Humber had said their work still was in the research stage and that “no scientific or definite pronouncement can, | or should, now be made of the results| thereof.” Dr. Coffey yesterday issued a state- ment accusing Dr. Fishbein of taking an “unjust and unethical” attitude to- ward the work of the San Francisco clinic. Dr. Coffey likened the methods of Dr. Pishbein, who is editor of the Journal of the American Medical As- sociation, to “those of a secret medieval tribunal.” INSANE COLORED SLAYER IS KILLED Neck Is Broken as He Resisted Hospital Guards After Mur- dering Mates.

MUSKOGEE, Okla., May 1.—Two re- ties, faced preliminary hearing on mur- der charges today, as Muskogee County | authorities sought to pierce mystery that and George Smith, West Cornwall, Conn. The accused men—Powell G. Seeley, 7500, of no other 73, of Washington, Conn. d John L. Wike, 55, of Sharon, have been held under guard in a hotel since their ar- rést immediately after the Smith brothers were found shot to death. Seeley and Wike were associated with the Smiths in the bankrupt New Mil- ford, Conn., Security Co. The prison- ers occupied a room adjoining the quar- ters of the Smith brothers. Both have denied the charges. Authorities frankly were uncertain as to whether the hearing would shed any light upon the puzzling questions pro- duced by the double slaying. Whether the motive was robbe: related in his story, or whe tive was a hidden one still was a riddie today. The four men came West in David Smith’s automobile on a combined busi- ness and pleasure trip. They were in- specting investments of the defunct Se- looking after individual business inter- All four men were widely known in Connecticut. The Smith brothers had was prominent as a capitalist. Wike was a prosperous retired farmer. Sheriff Fred Hamilton is of the opin- ion that an examination of the books of the Securities Co. will yield significant information. Wike has said the Smith brothers were shot by robbers, who then bound and gagged him. - Seeley has related he was in the bath room at the time and emerged to find the Smiths dead and ‘Wike in bonds. He did not see the rob- bers, he said. s CRUCIFIX TO MARK SITE Monument Will Mark Place of First English Catholic Settlement. FREDERICKSBURG, Va.
