    Stomach Cancer
Detection Made
By New Process
NEW YORK, Oct. 21 (lf)-A prac
tical method for detecting "silent
cancerous growths in the stomach
was described at the annual meet
ing of the American Cancer Soci
ety today. .
Dr. Russell Wigh of the Colum
bia University Presbyterian Hos
pital Medical Center, New York,
said the method, called "PhotolU'
orography,' , could, when put into
widespread use, save thousands of
lives.
Ovei- 25,000 persons die of stom
ach cancer every year because
their condition was discovered only
after the cancer stopped being "si
lent," too late for surgical Inter
vention, he added.
"Skilled Radiologists
('There arb enough skilled radi
ologists in the country to permit
- large-scale application of his pro
. cedure," he. said. "It can be hoped
that ultimately photofluorography
lor gastric cancer will be employed
much as tho now familiar tuber
culosis X-ray examinations.
"FYom the individual's stand'
point, the need for early diagnosis
of gastric cancer is certainly ns
great as the need for early diag
nosis in pulmonary tuberculosis.
The death rates for the two diseas
es currently are about the same.'1
The method is the taking of a
scries of photographs of the func
tioning stomach. When interpreted
by radiologists, these photographs
. Indicate the presence or absence
of gastric growths with a high de
gree of accuracy, he said. He said
it costs less per test than the Pa
panicolaou smear test for Uterine
cancer, which is in widespread use
and is credited with saving the lives
of thousands of women.
Great Virtue' ' ' ""
. And Its great virtue, he added,
was that it makes possible the ex
amination of large 'numbers of per
sons. The. comparatively few with
suspicious stomach abnormalities
could bo given a more comprehen
sive checking. '.
"The great danger of gastric can
cer is that many people are walk
ing the streets with latent cases
and no Bymptoms that would 'take
them to a doctor'," Wigh said. "If
the cancer is not discovered until
, it becomes symptomatic, the
chances of cure are slim, However,
the widespread use of phototluoro-
graph, as a test for non-symptomatic
people, would reveal cancer
in a stage when its curahlllty rate
is comparatively high.
Chiang Requests
U. S. Permission
To Invade China
TAPIEH, Formosa, Oct. 21 IP)
--Generalissimo Chiang Kai-Shek
asked the United Slates Tuesday
to let Ills troops Invade the Chin
ese Communist mainland. .
The Nationalist President made
the request at a press conference,
his first since he came to Formo
sa In 1949.
At the outbreak of the Korean
war in June 1950, President Tru
man directed the U. S. 7th fleet
to see that the Nationalists did
not attack the mainland and to
prevent any Communist invasion
or r ormosa.
Chiang endorsed a proclama
tlon issued Monday by the Kuo
mlntang, the Nationalist govern'
mcnt party, contending that only
the liberation of mainland China
could stop Communist aggression
In Asia.
He urged formation of a Pa
cific anti-Communist front.

The Army said a manpower

That means that enlisted men

the United States. Under the ro

TOMORROW'S TELEPHONE
How we're thinking and planning ahead to
bring you still better, more useful service
Tho telephone service you enjoy today would bo
almost unrecognizable to telephone men even a
generation ago. For, whilo we obviously can't put
out a new "model" of service every year, changes
and improvements in telephone equipment, facil
ities and service come steadily. Even the beat is
never good enough to those who create it for you.
Your telephone it one of
today's best bargains
The many new telephone developments In re
cent years have both improved service and
have helped us grow to meet tremendous de
mand for service. We've grown to fast, in fact,
that we now have over 10,000 more telephone
opera tort than were on the job tea year tgo.
This new telephone handset allows us to use
smaller wires to link telephones with the central
office which means a saving for defense needs of
some 3,000 tons of copper in the Bell System dur
ing 1952 alone.
Another new development automatic mes
sage accounting equipment will keep tab on
out-of-town calls dialed direct by telephone
users. This will reduce our costs of providing
service... a saving which is passed along to you
as it helps us hold down the rates we must charge
for service. The new handset, simplified auto
matic accounting and customer dialing of long
distance calls are just three examples of how
we're planning and building today to keep your
telephone service the best in the world.
