THURSDAY, AAY 19. 1949 THE BEND BULLETIN. BEND. OREGON PAGE . FIFTEEN " Cancer Compared To Hormones in Bodily Discord By Paul F. Ellis (UnitM l- Snc WriUr) New York, May 19. IP The function oi the hormones In a human body Is similar to that of musicians In a symphonic or chestra. , . In each case, they must per form together in tune. An out-of-tune musician spoils the symphony in music. A hor mone can do the same thing to ; the symphony of human health. In cancer cases, scientists ai the Sloan-Kettering Institute for cancer research have found, the hormones chemical substances produced by the sex and other glands shift their normal pat tern. There is an overproduction by some glands, and under pro duction by others. Furthermore, even some "strangers" get into the act. Discord Interests j The scientists are particularly iterested in cancer discord that is, what shift or alteration in the excretion of hormone sub stances occurs when cancer is forming or about to form. The evidence to date shows that a shift in a normal person's hor mone pattern may mean that he Is becoming susceptible to cancer. The exact pattern for healthy persons has not yet been deter mined, but it may be only a matter of time before 'medical science can tell by hormone "finger-prints" whether an indi vidual is shy of one or more types of hormone or is producing one or several types endanger ing his health. With such knowledgs, 'medical science hopes to find ways to correct a "deliciency" in a par ticular type of hormone or. to provide treatment that will re store i the proper hormonal bal ance. That is, get that outlof tune, or out-of-line, ''musician" back on the beam. The Sloan-Kettering scientists are not sure whether the shift m normal hormone patterns or Air Force Frowns On Floppy Gear Washington li- The days of the airman's characteristically floppy hats are numbered. Those loose-fitting air officers' caps which the ground army men scornfully, though perhaps Jeal ously, call "busdrivers' hats" have been proscribed. A new air force regulation states that "wearing of the cap, without the soft rolled grommet and front spring stuffing, will not be tolerated." The regulation gives the airman time to get rec onciled to the idea, however, be cause it doesn't go into effect un til the beginning of beptemoer, 1950. Flyers started taking the stiff wire bands out of their hats dur ing the war so that ear phones would fit right over the caps. But with modern, high-speed and jet plantes, the air force Is using hel mets with built-in headsets. It presumably wants its new blue uniforms to have a military ap pearance. excretions is a "cause" of cancer, or whether the shift results from cancer upsetting the proper func tion of glands, such as adren als, in manufacturing the neces sary hormones and in the neces sary amount. ', In one test of hormones In ex cretions from human beings, it was found that the strange "can cer" hormone was found in three persons suffering high blood pressure, and in five persons suf fering a disease known as Cush ing's syndrome. The latter ail ment is known to be caused by acting-up adrenal glands. The symptoms include over-growth of hair and overproduction of fat. The patients, moreover, had other hormonial abnormalties not in cluded in the cancer pattern. The test did show, however, that hormone excretions may be used to determine causes of other illnesses. Only recently, it was shown at the Mayo clinic that persons suffering .rheuma toid arthritis could be helped by being administered a substance manufactured by the adrenals and known as compound E. Egyptian Women, Unveiled, Seeking Right to Vote By Zakl Salama (United 1'reo. Staff Corrapondtnt) Cairo IPI Egyptian women, who have come a long way since they cast off their veils in 1923, have begun a campaign for the right to vote and sit in parliament. Two resolutions to grant wom en suffrage already have been introduced to parliament, une, in the senate, would give women full suffrage. The other, before the chamber of deputies, would give a vote to women high school graduates, but still bar them from elective office. Behind the suffragist move ment are three women's organi zations, the Egyptian feminist union, the national feminist par ty and the bint el-nil (daughters of the Nile). But the whole suffragist cam paign goes back to Madame Ho- da Sharawi Pasha, who led Egyptian women out of their centuries-old home seclusion into street demonstrations for Egyp tian Independence in 1919 after world war L Veils Discarded She founded the feminist union and. until her death last year, also was president of the Inter- Arab feminist union ana vice- oresident of the' International Women's organization. in. 19&J, Maoame snarawi headed the Egyptian, delegation to the international women's conference In Rome. She and her followers left Egypt wearing their traditional face veils. But on their return, they threw aside the veils as they stepped from the railway train at Cairo. That was the beginning of the end of women's veils in Egypt. Next, Madame Sharawi fought successfully for the establish ment of schools for girls. Today girls go to college along with boys. Then she persuaded em ployers that women have the right to work for a living. Now her followers are campaigning for the right of women to vote. Intellectuals Join The national feminist party was founded in 1944 by Madame Fatlma Nimet Rashid, a veteran militant journalist, to bring what -. she called middle-class women into the struggle for women's rights. The party's ex ecutive committee is composed almost entirely of university graduates, mostly women law yers, doctors and journalists. The bint el-nil society, founded only two months ago, has a work ing arrangement with the femin ist party. It is headed by Madame Dorria Shafik, 'who holds a doc torate, of philosophy from Sor bonne university, Paris. The bint el-nil society is cam paigning for unconditional wom en's political rights, prohibition of polygamy "except in cases of necessity," restriction of man's right to divorce, ad compulsory primary education for girls.
