THE MOfeNIJfG OREGOXIAX, TUESDAY, APRIIj 11, 1922 11 GErOALDGCTORS MOST IfJ DEMAND Fewer Specialists Needed, Says Dr. R. B. Dillehunt. HEALTH INSTITUTE OPENS ration's Manhood and Woman hood Held Menaced by Alarm ing Increase in Diseases. The need of fewer specialists and more general practitioners in the medical profession was stressed yesterday by Dr. Richard B. Dille hunt, dean of the University of Ore gon medical school, in the opening epeech in the- first session of the health institute week at the Mult nomah hotel. "Medical schools should look to turning- out more good .general physi cians," Dr. Dillehunt declared, "rather than so many specialists. There is a crying need all over- the nation for more country doctors. Graduate students have during the last decade preferred starting their medical careers in cities, the bigger the better, and only a comparative small proportion have gone into country towns and villages, with the result that there is an acute scarcity of general practitioners, so well known and so useful in former days, avail able for rural dwellers now. General Doctors Scarce. "The drifting tb the city has also been attended by a tendency toward specialization and even in cities where there is an abundance of physicians and surgeons it is more often than otherwise difficult to find a general i doctor who can prescribe for all the family ills. Medical colleges must endeavor to turn out more of this brand who are fortified with the new scientific discoveries and improve ments to take car of the health of small communities and rural dis tricts." Dr. John G. Abele, acting city health officer, followed Dr. Dillehunt with an address on symptoms of scarlet fever and diphtheria. This was for the benefit of the general public and was made in terms which the aver age laymen could understand. He explained the common symptoms which could be observed, by non members of the profession in order that preventive steps could be taken in time to avoid the more serious illness of the two contagions. Social Diseases Increase. The alarminsr increase in social diseases throughout the country was the topic of an address by Dr. George S. Whiteside, who said that more than 400,000 cases, one-fourth of them new ones, had been reported to "the United States health service during the last year. "It is unfortunate," Dr. Whiteside said, "that no method has yet been agreed upon for bringing the sub ject of social diseases before the pub lic without a tinge of affront. There ia a large element in our population that is opposed to any mention of them in the public prints., and there are arguments in favor of their at titude, but figures presented by gov ernment experts are so alarming that the country may be forced to waive its repugnance in an earnest effort to preserve young manhood and womanhood in a healthy condition." Other addresses made during the day were on the psychology of de linquents by Dr. S. C. Kohs of the court of domestic relations; well baby clinics by Dr. C. Ulysses Moore, and a talk on nutrition in health and disease by Dr. Noble Wiley Jones. Cancer Irtsldions Disease. Cancer can bo eradicated in most cases if early diagnosis is had other wise there Is no cure known forfeit to the- medical profession, declared Dr. Ernest K. Tucker, who gave a lecture on that disease last night at the Central library as the first of a se ries of night addresses this week by prominent physicians who are par ticipating in the public health insti tute. Destruction of cancerous tissue. Dr. Tucker said, is the only hope for the sufferer. It was said 90,000 persons die of cancer in the United States every year. One woman in every eight or nine above 40 years, who die, cancer victim and ono man in every 11 or 12 above 40 years of ,age succumbs to the same malady, he said. "Cancer is not hereditary and it is not contagious," said the lecturer. "It begins as a local disease, essentially so. All disease, or nearly all, and Injuries as well, tend to get well of themselves. Nature is zealous of the Interests of humankind and strives constantly in our behalf. Early Action Necessary. "When things do not tend to cor rect themselves, when conditions arise that are abnormal and when they persist, expert medical advice should be had at once. Hemorrhage from any orifice of the body is al ways suspicious and should be inves tigated at once. It might mean can cer. Lumps or swellings, too, de serve careful scrutiny. Cancer causes no pain at the beginning and it comes on insidiously. It must be taken early if a cure is t6 result. "White the X-ray and radium are holding out hopes of cure without operation, experiments with these things take time to determine their value. We are not yet in a position to say, positively, what may be ac complished along those lines." Dr. Tucker's talk was followed by a motion picture paid for by John D. Rockefeller, Jr., which showed graphically by means of a comedy drama, the proper treatment of can cer and. the folly of attempting a cure through the' use of pastes or other alleged panaceas. Today's programme includes lectures on laboratory diagnosis, early diag nosis of tuberculosis, diet, delinquents and laws, skin, prenatal hygiene, pub lic health officers and their duties, and social hygiene. foremost 'n advocating reforms and changes, hut the electors should nov notice these reformers and their pro posed changes unless they are ad vocating them in the name of a po litical party. One's party should and must be responsible for its party of ficeholders as no man can stand alone in this responsibility and trust and successfully work in conjunction with all the other officeholders single handed." Mr. Purdy has been engaged in business in Salem for a number of years and during the last presidential campaign took an ,activj part in furthering the interests of the dem ocratic candidate. Mr. Purdy said he probably would file with the secretary of state to morrow. ' - ' SCREEN STAR TP APPEAR VIOLA DANA AVILL BE HERE IN PERSON NEXT WEEK.

RACE Democratic Candidacy for Gover nor Announced by Salem Man. SALEM. Or., AprillO. (Special.) "Will E. Purdy of Salem tonight an nounced in a public statement that he would be a candidate for governor at the democratic primary election in May. In the opening paragraph of his statement he said he realizes that he 19 not a b.g man and that he has done nothing to merit the honor of occupy ing the governor's chair. He said: "The reason that I have decided to enter the race for governor Is because our people are more or less dissatis fied with the way our state govern ment has been . conducted by office holders in the paat. The people think much of their money has been squan dered and as a result the taxes are too high ROAD OPEN YEAR AROUND Prosser and Grandview, WasbJ, Delegation Visits Portland. With the view of acquainting Port land people with the fact that there is an all-jTear road: between this city and their section of the country a score of citizens of Prosser and Grandview, Wash., conferred with the outdoor recreation committee of the Portland Chamber of Commerce at a luncheon yesterday. Alec McNeil, county commissioner of Benton county, Washington, called the attention .of the members of the Chamber to the fact that by using the Columbia river highway to Irrigon and there crossing the Patterson ferry automobiles can reach Prosser and Grandview all year. Several, men from Sunjiyside had prepared to visit Portland with the delegation from Prosser and. Grand view, but were unable to do so. The outdoor recreation committee of the Chamber informed the visitors that efforts would be made to acquaint people with the road conditions. Tillamook to Have Iiive Fair. TILLAMOOK, Or., April 10.

Economical Administration Slogan ; Repair of Structures, Instead of Replacements, Urged. A. A. Muck, former county commis sioner, became a candidate yesterday for nomination in the republican pri maries. "My record for economical administration when commissioner before guarantees similar, economy now," is his slogan. In his platf orm Mr. Muck says that county expenditures, in times like these, should be as economical as consistent with efficient service; that no costly enterprise should be under taken; existing 'bridges and buildings should be repaired instead of being replaced. : Continuing, the platform says: . I am opposed to the county commission ers' present system of devoting only a portion of their time to county affairs. The county's business is important enough to demand all of .the county board's time to administer it. - 1 It elected I shall insist that Multnomah county receive its rightful share of the receipts from the interstate bridge. This is not the case at present. Clarke county has ajready received more than its pro portionate share of the bridge- bond issue, but Multnomah county still owes nearly SI 000,000 on account of the bridge. interstate bridge funds should be aud ited by the' county auditor and turned over to the county treasurer, who is under bond. This would save the taxpayers $1800 per year, which is the salary of an extra accountant the county board has employed to audit these funds. I favor home labor, home contractors and home products. On account OI tne increasing lax Duraen in this county, the law authorizing pay ment of ian exta 600 annually to ach Multnomah county commissioner for at tending one meeting per month of .the interstate bridge commission should be re- J npalcd. This would effect an annual sav ing of $1800 to the taxpayers. Mr. Muck is a member of various civic and fraternal organizations, arsons them being the Builders' Ex change, Association of Building and Construction. Woodmen of the World, Moose, Daddies' club, Hydro-Electric league and others. BETH ISRAEL TO BUILD $75,000 Structure to Be Erected Near Synagogue.
