B—18 AIR, F00D FOUND NEED OF CANCER Death of Part of Growths Traced to Absence of Necessities. BY the Assoctated Press. Lack of air and food will cause the death of some areas of cancerous growths, a Government medical scien- tist said yesterday, as surely as a per- son will die if deprived of those neces- sities of life. Discussing cancer research work of the National Institute of Health, Dr. Carl Voegtlin, medical director, de- | clared that oxygen and blood are necessary in the process of building up within cells the proteins which are one of the principal constituents of all tissue. Enzymes Digest Growths. Recent experiments have shown that when either normal or malignant | tissue is kept outside the body and deprived of oxygen, the enzymes— chemical substances in the tissue | which break down complex materials into simpler ones—digested the tis- sues in much the same manner as the | stomach breaks down food and digests it This finding, Dr. Voegtlin said, helps to explain why parts of a tumor | die. When oxygen was provided the tissue, on the other hand, the en- HERE'S OUR NEW BREAKFAST DRINK | Traffic Expert Says Safe Driving zymes acted in the opposite way and helped to build up proteins instead of destroying them. The lack of blood supply to the tissues to feed them also causes parts of a cancer to die, he added. “This finding is merely a step toward understanding the funda- mental chemical changes in the body which regulate cancerous growth,” he said. “It is not a practical method for treating cancer.” Work Mostly on Chemistry. Cancer work of the Institute of Health is principally on the chemistry of malignant growths, the scientist said, “since we believe that eventually the explanation of the cause of can- cer will be found in basic chemical changes of the body and an additional method of treatment may be pro- vided as a result.” Research workers have not yet found what these changes are or the chemicals which cause them, Dr. Voegtlin said. “Just as there is no chemical or drug known which will cure cancer.” s -— MARRIAGE CREDITED Is Promoted. CAMBRIDGE, Mass., April 1 (#).— Dr. Harry R. Desilva, traffic expert, asserted last night marriage “makes for more careful driving.” iResearch showed, he said, that rel- atively few young ‘‘repeaters’’—persons who have more than one automobile accident—were married, and that| those who were married “in most | cases improved their records after | marriage.” AND WE LOVE IT THE EVENING STAR, Judas Didn’t Use Redbud Tree Forest Service Experts Hold BY the Assoclated Press. Two Forest Service experts lined up today on the side of the redbud tree. They said Judas Iscariot, Christ's betrayer, did not hang himself from a redbud, as contended by Mrs. Ro- berta Lawson of Tulsa, national presi- dent of the Federation of Women's Clubs, who is leading a fight against making the redbud Oklahoma's official tree. W. R. Mattoon, extension forester, said the redbud is called the Judas tree in some parts of this country, but redbud is the standard name for it—a name unanimously accepted as correct by all State foresters who have published guides. I don't believe Judas hanged him- self from a redbud tree,” he added. “That, I think, is a myth. “The Bible says Zaccheus climbed up a sycamore tree to see Christ ride | by. We know that the Biblical syca- more tree is not our sycamore tree. And I don’t believe the tree. from which Judas hanged himself was our redbud tree.” Mattoon summoned George Phil- lips, former Oklahoma forester, now with* the Forest Service, for an opinion. Sticking strictly to trees, Phillips said the Old World Judas tree and the redbud are not the same. “They are in the same genus, but different species,” he announced ex- pertly. “They are, however, closely related.” Anxious to avoid participation in Oklahoma'’s raging controversy, Phil- lips said it was entirely a matter for Oklahoma to decide. But, as a for- | mer Oklahoman, he thought it would | be all right to make the redbud the State's official tree. | Mrs. Lawson said the redbud is { the tree from which Judas hanged himself and would not be a proper symbol. | So strongly did she protest that | State Senator Nat Taylor, author of | the tree-naming resolution, an- | nounced he would not ask Gov | Marland to sign it “right now.” Mrs. Virgil Browne, leader of the WASHINGTON, D. C., THURSDAY, pro-redbud forces, insisted the red- bud tree and the Judas tree “aren't botanically the same.” “The tree angle is legendary, any- way,” she said. | THREE WORKERS KILLED IN DYNAMITE BLAST Two Also Injured as Powder Man Probes Holes With Ircn Bar at Rock Quarry. | BY the Assoctated Press.
