CHAMPAIGN, Ill, March 80.—Suc- Bessful revival of the use of selenium, & rare element once rejected by emi- nent scientists as a_treatment for can. ®er, is claimed by three research worl ers after six years of patient exper! ments, The three are Dr. R. M. Parr, wom- &0 professor of chemistry at the Uni- versity of Illinois; Dr. C. S. Bucher, hysgclan and gua;gtg‘nx and Dr. R. S. ;lm , woman teriologist associated With the latter. An announcement they made yester- day said their combined treatment of & selenjum solution, X-rays or radium and a diet rich in vitamins not only #erved to check cancer in patients, but When the disease was attacked in early stages, completely eradicated it. Much Left to Determine. ‘While expressing belief, however, that the treatment might be of great benefit in combating the malady, the scientists warned against undue enthusiasm, as its development was still in its experi- mental stages and much work remained t0 be done. A similar_observation came at Chi- cago from Dr. Morris Fishbein, editor of the Journal of the American Medical Association. He said if the treatment proves beneficial it will be another “for- ward step,” but_ “there remains too much to be established to warrant un- qu;vnfled enthusism.” asserman, —Keysser and other clentists used selenjum in fighting cancer tissues, but discarded it in every case because, while it effectively de- stroyed cancer cells in rats they used | for their experiments, it also killed most of the rats.

Dr. Parr and her associates worked the selenium into hitherto unused com- binations, diluted it greatly, and said they found when injected into a pa- tient’s blood their new solution not only arrested the growth of cancerous tissue but in many cases destroyed it, this Without harmful effects to the patient. ! They resorted to the X-ray or radium, & known treatment for cancer, in their experiments and found, they said, that the solution of selenium acted as a reflective agent when the rays were ®pplied, creating secondary radium rays, These and the solution worked double dl:lsémcmn on the cancer tissues, they OHIO LEGISLATURE CONSIDERS RELIEF Proposed Program Calls for Emer- genoy Fund Amounting to $23,500,000. By the Associated Press. COLUMBUS, Ohio, March 30.—The ©Ohio Legislature assembled yesterday to consider emergency plans intended to make $23,500,000 available for the relief of the State's destitute and unem- ployed. Responding to cries for help, par- ticularly from the large urban centers, Gov. George White summoned the As- semblymen to enact a rellef program for the next 12 months. It was the first extraordinary session of the law makers in six years. Under the Governor's program the only tax increase proposed is an addi- tional 1 per cent on the gross earn- ings of public utilities, except the car- ;e:is mg’ plpelseunes, over a five-year ral approximate] 11,- 000,000. by ‘The other $12,500,000 would be made available for relief purposes in the po- litical subdivisions of the State by di- verting this amount from the automo- bile license fees and gasoline taxes now used for road and street repairs and Feconstruction. ‘The utility tax increase would .be ated to the cities, counties and townships, which would be authorized to issue bonds in the amount of their allotments and sell them immediately. The bonds would be retired in five years by the tax. Gov. White's plan also provides for a State Relief Commission of nine mem- bers to supervise expenditures.

BUENOS AIRES, March 30.—Every Bnancial decree of the late government of Argentina will remain operative unless supplanted by consti- tutional measures enacted by the Legis- lature, President Augustine P. Justo has nformed the Congress. The President's message was read last night at the opening of a special Con- gress session, called to consider a pro- posal for a national loan of $125,000,000 t0 meet emergencies. He assured the country the stringent domestic taxes decreed by former Provisional President Jose F. Uriburu would be enforced for an indefinite time, spiking rumors that they would be abated while Congress debated a revised tax law. The President submitted the 1922 t. which is the lowest since 1929 in spite of the fact that the fall of the Peso requires 70 per cent more for for- €ign debt payments than three years 8go. Most foreign debt payments have to be made in dollars.
