DREAD DISEASE THOUGHT
CONQUERED
/
When Drs. Coffee and Humber of San Francisco told
the world they had a new treatment for cancer which they
felt was a real cure, they did not think that the cancer
victims from all over the country would start coming to
them for treatment—at least until the stage of experi
ment was passed. That is just what happened, however.
W ith many of the profession scouting the effectiveness of
the cure, some optimistically hoping that it might prove
a real cure we find scores of people, cancer victims moving
on to San Francisco to risk what little they have left in
life to try the new treatment.
Cancer causes the death of many thousands of our
people each year and hope is always faint for one who
