Aid for Cancer Research Devised San Francisco (U.R) An aid to finding out why cancer spreads through body tissues has been devised by Dr. J. F. Rine hart, pathologist at the Univer sity of California hospital. The announcement was made by the American Cancer Society, which supports research at the university and its hospital with an institutional research grant. Dr. Rinehart has devised three new stains which will aid in dis covering how cancer manages to penetrate tough connective tis sue, known as basement mem brane, one type of which sep arates skin from underlying tis sues. This ability gives the dis ease its invasive quality. Dr. Rhinehart stains tissues and, under the miscroscope, at tempts to determine whether the basement membrane is defective in the early stage of cancer de velopment, permitting cells to break through. He also will make chemical tests to see whether some com pound in the tumor reduces the tough restraining membrane to a jelly-like or, watery consis tency as the cancer moves into adjacent tissues. Some scientists believe that tumors possess a "spreading faaior" which has such an effect.

The disease, which usually ap pears in baby pigs, has become so widespread it is now one of the most serious swine problems in the United States. AVMA of ficials said the disease, called infectious rhinitis, is taking a place with such problems as cholera, erysipelas and transmis sible gastroenteritis. Few animals are killed out right but rhinitis can stop gains to the point where hog raising is no longer profitable. Unlike non-ctontagious bull nose, which is frequently con- "fused with rhinitis because of sneezing and pushed-in noses of the pigs, rhinitis is extremely infectious. Association authorities said careful selection of breading stock and feeder pigs from clean herds will keep rhinitis off the premises.
