CANCER CONTROL
When the Bend Kiwanis club assumed responsibility for
raising the local quota of the national cancer control $5,000,
000 fund it became identified with one of the most worthy
activities under way in this country. We have commented
before now pn the continuing cancer control campaign, on
the value of research, through which more successful methods
of treatment, perhaps even of prevention are being sought,
and on the need for general education as an aid to the early
diagnosis which must be had if present methods of treatment
are to be successful. We touch on the subject again now that
the annual quest for funds is starting. The amount asked
here is very small. It should be over-subscribed.
At the same time we should like to help in the program
of education, all important in the immediate phase of the
campaign, education in cancer's danger signals. The Ameri
can cancer society lists them as follows :
Any sore that does not heal, particularly about the tongue,
mouth or lips.
A painless lump or thickening, especially in the breast, lip
or tongue.
Irregular bleeding or discharge from the nipple or any
Doay opening. '
Progressive change in the color or size of a wart, mole or
pirtnmarK.
Persistent indigestion.
. Persistent hoarseness, unexplained cough, or difficulty in
swallowing. ,
Any change in the normal bowel habits.
To these we add a few suggestions of our own. Don't
indulge in self-diagnosis. Don't become panicky.'Some of the
symptoms mentioned could be something else than cancer.
But they are often enough indications of something very
, serious to warrant reporting them to a doctor. Promptness in
doing so is highly important. Cancer cells multiply slowly at
first, but with increasing rapidity. It is vitally important that
the growth be identified before it reaches the runaway stage.
All this, as we have noted, is pretty much in the present.
As to the future of cancer control, our greatest hopes lie in
the results of experiment and research. The scope of such
work must be increased and its continuity assured. The money
which will pay or laboratory equipment and for the greater!
program of scientific work will be d rnwn. in rnnKirlnmhlr,
measure, from the fund now being raised. We are sure that
the people pf Bend will give to it gladly.
' , COMMAND IN THE PACIFIC
Assignment of General MacArthur to command all nrmy
forces in the Pacific theater will allay any fear that the
general might be denied the opportunity of directing the
actual conquest of Japan. It is an opportunity which he has
deserved, both for his service and because of demonstrated
ability'.
Heretofore, of. course, General MacArthur hw been in
command in the southwestern Pacific. Any army command
elsewhere in the Pacific would have been in name only. But
developments, in April have made it apparent that army ac
tion in the Pacific would no longer be restricted to the south
west. The invasion of Okinawa, pointing a menacing finger
at Formosa, seemed (and still seems) the beginning of a new
dividing operation, this time to cut off the Japanese archi
pelago trom all the island empire to the south. It seemed not
impossible that MacArthur, .busily and successfully engaged
in cleaning up $he Philippines, would be allowed to continue
that job and to go on to a like task in the East Indies, still
largely under Jap domination. It seemed an equally plausible
theory that a separate theater would be recognized to the
north of Okinawa and that an independent commander would
bo assigned to the task of occupying the Jap homeland.
Under the new arrangement, however, this northern area
is merely added to MacArthur's responsibilities; so far as the
army is concerned, and to Admiral Nimitz's responsibilities
so far as the navy is concerned. t provides the opportunity
for both commanders to win added honors-an opportunity,
by thq way, whieh the commanded have fully eur ied

THE SMELL OF MURDER
XVIII
After that dinner things began
to happen. Eric discovered urgent
business in Boston and Pat drove
him to the train In the station
wagon, f nineas . Hudson rode
along with Pat and Erie to make
some telephone calls. Bruce Tem
ple ana Krenaa departed, almost
immediately lor nome.
Charley and I walked dispirit
edly along the sea wall. Charley
saw: . .
Did you see Eric's face when
Bruce Temple spilled that busi
ness about Estoril?"
"For a time," I said, "it was the
only convenient way put of Eu
rope." "Yes." Charley fingered his
chin reflectively.' "I'd like to
know when he was there."
"Temple?"
Charley looked at me.
"Who else?"
"Eric," I said. "Or Booker or
Calavestri." I
"I don't suppose it would help
much," Charley said. "Nick, did
Booker know of your connection
with the Hudsons?"
"He semed to," X said. "He
kept talking about the little girl
nn Rnannn Mill " ' T
"I only saw him once," Charley
went on, "but I noticed some
thing"
He paused.
"Yes?"
"His feet," Charley said.
"They were big," Charley said.
"In fact, they were enormous."
"Lots of people have enormous
feet," I said.
Charley looked at me shrewdly.
I knew what he was thinking.
The implication in the presence of
those Blakely and Hogdon shoes
In the Hudson cellar were, to say
the least, disturbing.
It was beginning to look as if
Phineas Hudson was In on this
somehow. That only confused
matters. We might have pursued
it further, but we heard a car
wheeling along the gravel drive.
e e e
It was Cass Hapes. He ap
proached with a look half-worried
and half-determined.
"Well. Cass," I said, "you were
right."
"Mind If I have a look (n the
cellar7" he asked.
Neither of us minded although
we were not over-sanguine about
the results. We took him to the
cellar. He said:
"Where's this room?"
We showed him the room. He
glanced swiftly around. "
"And the shoes?" he asked.
I looked. The shoes were gone.
Charley said: "They were right
there under the cot.".
Hapes included us both n a
withering glance of scorn.
"Why didn't somebody knuckle
on to those?" '
"I thought fingerprints or
something " Charley shrugged
weakly.
"Fingerprints! With those
shoes wo didn't need fingerprints.
There ' probably weren't more
than four pairs that size stocked
In all the stores In the city of
Boston."
"Maybe they weren't bought in
Boston," I suggested.
"I'd have liked the opportunity
of finding that out. Now what
about that fellow who entered
your room last night, Mr. Trent?"
, "Did Mr. Hudson tell you about
thai, too?"
' "Mr. Hudson didn't tell me.
Brcnda Temple called."
Charley's head came up like a
setter's. And I divined his
thought. Why hadn't Mr. Hudson
told Hapes?
"Well," I said, "he shot at me
and missed: that's about all. He
was tall and tough."
"He would be. You got his
gun?"
I pulled the gun out of my
pocket and handed it over. Hapes
registered disgust.
"You weren't so careful about
fingerprints here."
"Look, Cass." I began to froth
a little at the mouth. "I wrestled
for that gun. It I hadn't, there
would have been some lovely
prints on the gun but no gun."
Hapes merely stared at me
stolidly. Then surprisingly
enough he passed it back.
"Know anyone who would want
to kill you?" i
"No."
"I do." Charley smiled brightly.
Hapes did not smile back.
"Who?"
"A mechanic with eyes like
shoe buttons and a knife-scar on
his face." '
'What's his name?"
That's your Job." answered
Charley. He told Haws the storv
of the tampering with his plane.
Then he concluded: '.'but the euv
who fired this gun wasn't after
imick; inai is, not precisely."
wna ao vou mean not nre-
ciseiy;
VThe shooting of that gun was
a defensive act Just as the slug
ging in the basement. If that
fellow had really wanted Nick out
of the way, you'd have had your
corpse and a nice fat murder to
work on."
"I'll have the murder yet," said
Hapes bluntly.
"Sorry to have disappointed
you," I remarked.
"Listen, Mr. Trent." Hapes be
came quite earnest. "When you've
been a general practitioner for 20
years, you don't need X-rays to
detect the measles. You can smell
'em. Well. It's the same in do.
lice work.' I can smell murder,
and before long we'll have one."
with that comforting thoueht.
Hapes left us. And It was char
acteristic of his New England
laconicism, that when he passed
Pat and her father coming
through the gate in the station
wagon, his greeting was Imoer-i
ceptlble from where I. stood if,

Ing at all. Cass Hapes seemed not

Montana, Wagner of New York,
Thomas of Utah and O'Mahoney
of Wyoming, are being watched
in Washington with closest inter

procession, with a, state full em

democratic members of the state

California bill is a resolution me

national full employment bill as
a necessary companion piece of
legislation to the proposed state

A similar bill is expected to be
introduced In the New York state
legislature in the near future, and
from advices and inquires re
ceived in Washington from vari
ous state capitals, there may be
other state law-making bodies
considering such measures this
year, when 44 of the 48 are in

The California bill follows
closely .on the pattern of the par
ent full employment bill intro
duced in the U. S- senate, with
the one important exception that
it makes the primary responsi
bility for supporting maximum
employment a function of the
state government, and calls on
the federal government to supple
ment the state aid only to the ex
tent that the state government is
not able to meet its unemploy

the first draft of a full employ
ment bill, late in 1944, one of the
cries raised against it was that
it was more federal paternalism,
more making the national govern
ment responsible for the welfare
of all the citizens without effort
on their part.
One of the big kicks against
WPA was that lt by-passed local
government. By having a state
government assume the primary
responsibility, the federal govern
ment's load would be materially
lightened and the move to put
more of the functions of govern
ment back on the state level
would oe considerably lurthered.
Aside from this one change, the
California bill picks up much of
the language of the revised Mur
ray-Wagner-Thomas - O'Mahoney
bill as introduced in the U. S.
senate In January.
The governor would be re
quired to submit to the state leg
islature an annual budget esti
mate on the total state economy,
public as well as private, for the
following year. Included in the
budget would be an estimate of
the labor force, and the number
of Job opportunities. On that
basis, the state legislature would
be called upon to develop new in

tribution of one cent a week from
each child it is planned that the
children themselves will help pro- j
vide care for handicapped children :
in various institutions of the :
Lutheran church. A local league ,
has been organized with Bob John-
