MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, SfEDFORP. OREGON. THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 193?. PAGE FIVE I CAUSE OF CANCER Oregon U. Medical School Pathologist Says Appar ent Growth Due to Better ' Diagnosis and Knowledge PORTLAND, Feb. 22. (P) There will be no recovery In the current de pression on quack nostrums. So Dr. Prank R. Menne, pathol ) oglat of the University of Oregon med ical school, told members of the ,'a oifie Coast Surgical association here today as the group met for a series of clinical sessions and lectures, and lor demonstration of the newest of the scalpel'j art In special operations. Contrary to popular opln Ion, Dr. Menne said. Increase In cancer can be traced only indirectly to a cl liizatlon whose newer ways have been blamed generally for the prevalence of the malady. Rather, he said, tin Improvement of diagnosis and the growing move ment of the public to consult phy alclana rather than to use quack oures, has given cancer what he de scribed as largely a "book" Increase. "While there have been slight in creases," he aald, "In not only can eer, heart disease, and a small per centage of Bright's disease, the world probably Is in Its safest period In his tory with relation to cancer." Dr. Menne said that some of the old cancer "cures" not only has no v beneficial effect but In some instances ' caused the disease they were reputed to cure. The newest discoveries of medicine tad. surgery occupied the physicians In today's session, the first of a four day conference. Among the most In teresting lectures was a discussion by Dr. H. B. Myers, professor of pharma eology at the Oregon medical school, who dealt with studies of fungicidal growths. Discoveries In this field, he said, have led. to the rehabilitation of many workers, particularly those Jn canneries and In similar Indus tries, who have become Inflicted by fungicidal, infections. THE GRANGE Eagle Point Grange. (By Gertrude Haak.) Eagle Point grange had an unus ually lnterestling session Feb. 20.

Another feature of the program was a talk by Oregon State Grange Master Ray W. Gill, who presented the grange viewpoint of the sales tax question. Mr. Gill's talk proved to his audience that he was well posted to the causa and effect of a general ales tax In Oregon, and many who vera on the fence, or even on the sales tax tide of the fence, were con verted over to the opposition to a sales tax. During the business session the grange voiced approval of having a custodian appointed to have charge of grange equipment, not already cared for by the steward or the Home economics committee. Attention was called to the new law governing the payment of taxes and a short explanation of the new requirements. The home economics elub will meet with Mrs. O. P. Davles at 3 p. m.
