Launching a nation-wide movemett for the educa tion of the people and the medical profession on the subject of cancer, the executive committee of the Ameri can Society for the Control of Cancer issued a statement yesterday setting forth its plans. Dr. Llewllys F. Barker, of Baltimore u nf the vice-oresidents of the committee and Dr. Joseph C. Blood irood and Thomas R. Cullen of this citv. are members. George C. Clark, of New York, is chairman, and the other vice-presidents are Dr. Clement Ueve land, of New York; Dr. Lewis M McCurtry, o Louisville; Dr. Edward Martin, of Philadelphia; Thomas M. Debevoise, of New York, is secretary and Dr. Howard Bayne, of New York, treasurer. a& After outlining the steps leading up to the formation of the society, the statement continues: "There is no doubt that at the present ' time the facts well established in regard to cancer are not known by the people or even by the great body of the medical profession. tes $f 6 K. "It is no easy thing even to bring these facts properly before the people and the doctors of medicine. "They must be presented in such a way that there shall be no doubt in regard to their authenticity and truth. The conclusions must be those agreed upon by the great majority of those who have for years studied the problem of cancer and accumulated this evidence. "The truth must be presented to the M people in such a way that it will n create fear but confidence. "The message to the medical pro fession will be equally difficult. The diagnosis of cancer, in its earliest stages, when treatment gives the very best results and the greatest number of cures, is more uncertain, and the treatment in this stage, although very much less dangerous, is a more delicate surgical procedure. "The authorities on cancer through out lis country plan to give the pro fession upon whom the responsibility s treatment rests the results of their investigations and the evidence upon which there has been established a uniform method of diagnosis and ap propriate treatment of all forms of cancer in their earliest stages. With this available literature before them the surgeons throughout the country will be better prepared to recognize and treat cancer in its earliest stages among those people who have been educated by the;: same propaganda to seek" then- advice in this very early period..

A No. CONFESSES MURDER OF EIGHT. Savs He Killed Girl, For Which Crime Two Students Were Hanged Lo Angelas, Cal., July 8. Arrested in the charge of having passed a bad check at a seaside resort, Simon T. Helfinstine, who is in jail here, today startled officials of the Sheriff's office with t purported confession, in which he detailed; a series of' eight murders in Ohio. These include the slaying of Pearl Bryan, for whose death the medical students, Jackson and Walling were executed. Some of the circumstances of the crimes as related by Helfinstine do not coincide with known facts, and count officials were inclined to believe the prisoner was suffering from insanity, f Helfinstine said he' started his career of mudcr in 1896 with the killing of a farmer named Dedricks and his wife and the stealing of 18.000, which they had hidden In 108, the prisoner aid. &e killed two farmers named Fletcher and Butler at Kenten Piki, Ohio. ' ' Pearl Bryan was supposed to have been killed in Cincinnati, but Hel finstine asserts that he murdered the girl i lit" Toledo and then shipped the body tip Jackson. end Walling in Cincinnati. A part of Helfinstine s story was Droved untrue bv the finding near delegation of citizens living in 3 Township came to New Bern yesterday and appeared before th e Board of Commissioners for the pur pose of inducing them to make some improvements in the condition of thr roads in that township. According to the assertions of the members of this delegation the roads ten miles from New Bern are in such condition that traffic over them is almost impossible. A few days ago a citizen of Dover made the trip to this city in his automobile. So much trouble did he experience on the trip on account of the bad roads, that he left the machine here and returned by rail. Yesterday he came down and after taking on a block and tackle in order to pull his car out of a mud hole if it should happen to get stuck, left for his home. The bad condition of the road leading to New Bern has a tendency to cause many persons, who would otherwise come here, to eo to Kinston to do their trading. One member of the dele gation drove to the city in his buggy and en route he cut from the centre of the central highway a good-sized sapling which he presented to the Board as a souvenir. In answer to the request of the delegation Chairman Bradham told them that the county had nothing to do with keeping this road in first-class condition, and that it was up to the citizens living along it to sec that was keDt Dassable. Naturally the members of the delegation were very much disappointed and according to i i -i an assertion maae oy one ui i they will make other attempts to have the road put in good shape. The matter of discontinuing the road leading out by Asa Ipock's pro perty in No. 2 Township was brought un. This was formerly a mail route but recently this route has been abol ished and there is comparatively little traffic over it. Chairman Bradham was not in favor of discontinuing this road, but no agreement was reached and action in the mutter was postponed until the next meeting. hundred dollars toward the employ ment of a competent physician for this work. The work of this physicain would not be devoted to the school children entirely, but he would also have super vision of the county home, the chain gang, and in lact nave entire cnarge of the health of the county.

Washington, July 8.-Arizona is the latest State to be called to account by the War Department for alleged failure to comply with the Dick Mili tary law. Secretary Garrison has directed Gov ernor Hunt's attention to the fact that the Arizona militia has been overen listed in preparation for its annual encampment and has asked him to account for certain supplies furnished by the Federal Government. Department officials said to day that the Arizona militia officers appar ently had misunderstood orders issued from the department. The Dick law it was pointed out, provides that en listed men, in order to be eligible for duty at encampments, shall be recruits at least 60 days before. Violations of the Dick Act in Arkan sas and South Carolina already have been given attention at the War Department, and as a result Federal aid has been withdrawn from the South Carolina militia.

The American Commission on Agricultural Co-operation visited this city Saturday and saw the monument and house of Raiffeisen, founder of the German co-operative banking system that bears his name. It was a notable occasion, and Mr. David Lubin, founder of the International Institute of Agriculture at Rome, Italy, who is accompanying the Commission on its investigation of agricultural co-operation and co operative banking in fourteen European countries, delivered an address at the House of Raiffeisen. Mr. Lubin said, in part: "We are beginning to discern with clearness that the task before US is not merely economic amelioration, but that it is higher than that. It reaches upward until it strikes the true keynote of political stability, ensuring; peace and equity, not merely for the people of the United States, but political peace and equity wherever the principles underlying these doc trines shall take root.
