Noses As Subject
"Cancer in its early stages can be
cured," declared Dr. Reuben Peter-
son, of the University medical school,
in speaking on the first Michigan
Night radio program of 1928, broad-
cast over WWJ, the Detroit News,
last night. "Hence," the speaker add-
ed, "it is the duty of everybody to be
on the lookout for unusual signs and
symptoms and seek advice from their
doctor immediately if any symptoms
are present. Prompt treatmen of
the disease when it is local means
cure, delay means just the reverse."
Speaking on the subject, "Early
Recognition and Cure of Cancer," Dr.
Peterson went on to say that in the
beginning cancer is aways a local
affair. "It is not at the onset a gen-
eral, blood or constitutional disease,"
he said. "Cancer always starts in
a small way with a collection of can-
cer cells. If the disease could always
be recognized at this stage and re-
moved, there would be practically no
deaths from cancer."
Early Stages Unrecognized
Dr. Peterson explained that it was
impossible to have these ideal con-
dit'ons in the recognition and cure
of cancer, because it is only occa-
sionally that it can be recognized at
this early stage. There is still con-
siderable time from the beginning of
cancer however, he said, when con-
plete cure will result if the growth
be thoroughly removed.
"Dramaltics and the Universities"
was the subject of Prof. J. Raleigh
Nelson, director of the Comedy club,
who was the second speaker on the
program. Interest in the study of the
drama and particularly in the pro..
duction of the drama, Professor Nel-
son told his radio audience, which has
developed so rapidly in the past de-
cade, did not find its first inspiration
and impulse in the universities.
"It has been distinctly a popular
movement," Professor Nescni said
"springing spontaneously from inher-
ent interests of the peopIo 'if
spreading by its own contagion until
its influence is felt in the remotes
and most obscure corners (f our
country. Its socializing offect va a
from the first its most rnotable vir-
tue. Communities have found expres-
sion for their local tradition and
ideals in their pageants and commun-I
ity plays, and groups quite hetcro-
geneous have often leen drawn to-
gether into a new social unity by
their common interest in their little
theater or other dramatic ventr:es."
Develops Appreciatioi
Professor Nelson pointed out that
this enthusiasm has transformed at-
tics, basements, barns and garages
into artistic little playhouses, and has
made actors of clerks, school teach-
ers and common laborers. With it,
he said, there has been a rapidly
growing appreciation of the educa-
tional value of drainatics, a growth

countries in the continent of Africa

which was entitled, "Africa an Inter-
national Problem," was concerned
with certain high lights of his report

report is to show what problems the
entrance of Europe into Africa has
created.
"There are two outstanding facts
concerning Africa which distinguishj

FRANCE TO AMEND
ANTI-WAR TR.EATY
(By Associated Press)
WASHINGTON, Jan. 6.-A proposal
from Paris to amend the Kellogg
a.nti-war declaration treaty plan by
confining it to wars of aggression cast
I a cloud today over prospect of early
signature of such a pact by France
and the United States and its presen-
tation to the other great nation's of
the world for adhesion.
The note of the French government
was presented at the State department
by Ambassador Claudel. It drew out
an immediate official. though informal
comment, that introduction of the
, words aggressive war would open the
' door to endless debate over the ques-
tion of the aggressor in any conflict.
