- PROF. JAMES EWING - GETSHONOR DINNER World’s Greatest Cancer Fighter Paid Tribute by Leading Experts. By the Assoclated Press. NEW YORK, January 31.—Fifty-fou leading cahcer authorities of the worldl presented a symposium of honor night to Prol James Ewing of COmell University and hailed him as the world's greatest cancer fighter, this quiet teacher who rarel: becomes excited, uewt at a base ball ga Prof. Ewing is 64. Bclentlsu call him the tmtut. authority in the world on cancer, which continues to leap rapidly to flr!‘&hpllce as the most deadly of hu- man At a testimonial dinner tonight he ‘was given an “homage book” in which were gmuped and bound for the occa- special articles on cancer by the leading experts in all the branches of cancer-fighting technic. Between 300 and 400 noted physicians attended the dinner and inscribed their names in the book after the presentation. ‘Wants Research Centers. As citadels of the world war against cancer, Prof. Ewing would like to see six $10,000,000 research centers in the United States, around which the forces of humanity might rally and in which they might entrench themselves for sallies against the still largely mys- terious enemy. Barnard Hospital in St. Louls is now setting out to bécome & nucleus of this array of “fortresses.” The ublic’s attitude toward cancer “calmly suspicious, but not ll’rl.id Prof. Ewing thinks. He frowns upon hysteria, without minimizing the seriousness of the growth of the dis- ease. Cancer can be cured, he insists, 4f it is detected and attacked in its early stages, and the public's job is to help to detect it early. His advice is to go to the doctor at the first sign, any un- usual lump in the flesh, persistent sores, unusual moles or warts or bleeding from the mouth or body openings. As a result of 10 years of grinding work Prof. Ewing produced his book, “Neoplastic diseases,” which scientists say contains all the accumulated knowl- | of cancer and which is primarily intended as a handbook for practicing dans to enable them to detect in- nt cancer in their patients. the 10 years Prof. Ewing was writing his book he worked holidays, n!(hu and week ends, alf h wracked ith pain from facial nei gla.

Newton, BUREAU OF HOME ECONOMICS APS CHEAP MEALS FOR ALL Four Adults Can Be Served Three Meals Daily for Week at $7.12. Woman Expert Has Prepared “Market Basket Guides” for Careful Cooks. BY GRETCHEN SMITH. ‘ashington families can keep within the “drought” menu suggested by the Bureau of Home Economics and four adults can be served three meals a day for a week at & cost of $7.12, a careful inquiry has disclosed. Mrs. Ida Phelps Rogers, who recently arrived in Washington and was assigned to Dr. Stanley's office at the Bureau of Home Economics, has for some time been working upon these food guide charts, endeavoring to give the best daily menus, at lowest cost, to house- keepers throughout the country. ‘There is scarcely a state in the Union but has contributed its quota of anxious housewives, eager to know how they may feed their families Dl’wel'ly at the !least expense. Three Live on $60 Monthly. One letter received by Mrs. Rogers from a young wife in Micl , stated that the entire family, husband, wife and child, had but $60 a month to cover all expenses. t of this $60, not only must the family feed, clothe and house itself, but the father was at the same time endeavoring to buy a small plece of land for gardening purposes. Even Ontario, Canada, has one in- terested housekeeper—who, seeing the recent article relative to the Bureau of Economics low cost food guide in an American paper, has requested that the guide be sent to her. However, working, people and those acutely suffering from the economic depression are not the only persons in- terested in the bureau's food guide. Cle en, doctors and. directors of in- stitutions have also sent in requests for information, in many instances de- siring the charts for patients or others whom they wish to help. Guides Prepared. Several “market basket guides” have been prepared by Mrs. Rogers, including those for a family of two adults and one child, aged 3; for two adults and three children, three adults and seven children, and one for four adults. These food guides do not claim to provide an abundance of food, but that which can actually supply the proper amount of nourishment necessary for health. The lists, also, do not lnclude condiments, which are not considered as part of a housekeeper's weekly ex- penditures, It must be borne in mind that in keeping the family food budget down its minimum cost m:xgzhdependl upon the housekeeper. If a care- !\?lomtnd ts no waste, the above sufficiently to keep good and mble them to leave the table with the feeling that they have had enough to eat. Another requisite qualification is that the houu eeper be a good cook, so that y prepare the plainest o food- -mm in an edible and appetizing way. Sample Menaus.

Although an au- thority of note recently said about him that “just what Mozart is to Escalloped On! Hashed Brown Potatoes. Indian Meal Pudding. impregnated with feeling. Many tongues were wagging last night, comparing him with Paul Robeson. Somehow, this seems un- fair. One can be entirely loyal to each of them in turn. For just as Robeson sang “Water Boy” only a week or s0 ago with a grace that one would have thought unbeatable, so Hayes sang it -lua his own manner last night, and made one forget that it had ever been heard before. hch did it in hfs own way.

But these did not by any means make one forget that Mr. Hayes has come to the point where he can sing German and French songs with the best of them—and probably better than many of the lustier tenor immortals of ultra-fashionable caliber.

It was indicated today that the naval base at St. Thomas will be “laid up,” with only a caretaker and a few radjo operators - assigned to it, following transfer of the islands from naval to civil administration. It is considered one of the most strategic naval bases for protection of the Panama Canal. The Navy withdrawal, according to high officers, followed a dispute over dividing administrative responsibility with Herbert D. Brown, chief of the Bureau of Efficiency. Before the post of civilian governor was offered to Dr. Paul M. Pearson of Swarthmore, Pa., it was re by Rear Admirsl 8. S. Robison, superin- tendent of the Naval Academy, with the observation that “no self-respecting officer” would take the place under the conditions imposed. Presjdent Hoover is sald to have agreed with naval offi- cers that it was useless to try to have two governors. Capt. Waldo Evans, present gover- nor, had objected to sharing responsi- bility with another department of the Government and had asked to be de- tached. For the first time since the islands were bought from Denmark in 1917 for $25,000,000, largely to prevent Ger- many from acquiring them, they will be without naval administration in less than six months. Replacement to Be Gradual. Gradually, naval men will be replaced by civilian officers until some 300 Navy men shall have been withdrawn. It was not until today that it became apparent the Navy's withdrawal was likely to mean the laying up of the naval bass as well. Naval officers said lhe extent to which the Navy would re- tire was still a matter of conference, but indications favor leaving only the radio operatores and a caretaker. Brown of the Bureau of Efficiency said he would be the last to ask with- drawal from the naval base, now cen- tered on an island in St. Thomas har- bor, and that he hoped the base would remain in its present status, with dry docks and repair facilities available. The understanding in naval quarters, meanwhile, was that even the mine- layer Grebe, which has been maintained at the St. Thomas base, would be sent elsewhere. It was pointed out, however, that the “laying up” of the St. Thomas base, would by no means preclude its use in time of National emergency. The United States has six other outlying bases, one each at Guam, Cavite, Sa- the Canal Zone and The troubie between the Navy and the Bureau of Efficiency, it transpires, grew out of an appropriation of $141,- for the government of the Virgin Islands, which was made’ with Chair- man Burton L. French of the House Naval Subcommittee on Appro] rh- tions looking to its expenditure sul to the approval of Brown. Self-Support Intended. Brown, by congressional authoriza- tion, had made an extensive investiga- tion to put the islands on a self-sup- porting is. In the 13 years since the United States acquired the islands, the Government has spent $5,500,000 to make up deficits in island revenues. Meantime the islands had been s losing population, due partly to the fact that prohibition killed the manu- facture of rum and partly that emi- grants have been going to Harlem in & steady stream. An_ unprecedented drought from March to September of last year re- sulted in the failure of the last of three sugar companies, The present admin- istration had to resort to feeding the population in some cases. Brown developed several plans to try to rehabilitate the flllnds including diversification n( wrz and a homesteading Capt. l"llnfl dln(reed wlth Brown's plan. The issue was carried to the Navy Department and thence to Presi- dent Hoover. The circumstances under which Congress made the appropria- tion were considered to leave no ternative but to go on with the du: responsibility arrangement. Capt. Evans finally refused to be responsible as Governor so long as he was circum- scribed by inability to make expendi- tures from the $141,000 appropriation without the approval of another de- partment. He requested several months 8go to be detached. By the same token Admiral Robison was able to decline. Admiral Robison reaches the retirement age of 64 within a few months. ‘When it was proposed that a civilian administration be established the Navy is said to have raised no objection, pro- vided it were permitted to withdraw all its activities from the island. and on the island of Culebra, vhlch the United States holds. —_— FORMER GOV.

By the Associated Press. INDEPENDENCE, Kans., January 31. —W. 8. Fitzpatrick, chairman of the board of the Prairie Oll & Gas Co., wd-y told Gov. Harry H. Woodring of Kansas the company was unable to purchase “distress” ofl in Southeast Kansas and Northeast Oklahoma. The communication of the Prairle official was in reply to a demand from the chief executive of Kansas that the company aid owners of stripper wells, from which the Prairie ceased to pur- chase crude January 1. The purchas- ing was ceased, the company said, be- cause it was unable to find a market for the petroleum. In his telegram Gov, Woodring sug- gested prairie products might not be received favorably by a public aware that the company had “sounded the death knell” of the small independent pro- ducers. Fitzpatrick told the Governor his company might acquire refineries as the opportunity arose and place the product on the market, although “it is not _encouraging to invest capital in localities where high officials errone- ously or inadvertently advise the public we have done nomh'l_g.nnd are not will- ! to do anything t might be help- ful in promoting the prosperity of the oil industry.” St THEFT IS REPORTED Former Senator Dial Says Robber Took Cash and Checks.
