Miss Geraldine Oaksmith's Experiments
Explore Different World of Medical Theory
By O. H. Alien
The cause and a possible cure for cancer and paraly
sis is believed to have been found by a Carteret county
scientist as the result of 15 years of experiments and re
search.
Miss Geraldine Oaksmith, who lives four miles west
of Morehead City, says she believes she has found the
cause of these dreaded plagues of mankind and has de
vised a therapeutic that will cure:
both
Cause of both1 diseases, she says,
is an unbalance of the X, or sex,
chromosome in the human body.
This unbalance in turn forces an
improper mixture of the body
chemicals and the results are con
ditions physicians term cancer or
paralysis, depending on which way
the unbalance goes.
Curing of the diseases can be
effected by extracting certain par
ticles from the organs of animals
in which diseases similar to hu
man diseases have been reproduc
ed. Miss Oaksmtfh explained.
Reproduces Symptoms
In her lf? years of experiments
with cats, dogs, rats, poultry and
goats she has reproduced in the
animal* all the symptoms of men
iies disease (a morbid state of the
systf.n), infantile paralysis, epi
lepsv, astljma, rheumatic fever.
dia*rt*tes, liver diseases. acute ali
ens and 'nervous" blindness and
deafness. In addition malignant tu
lrors identical with human cancer
fave been reproduced in chickens.
Aid in these experiments was
given by Dr. Selus Ferebee, a for
mer Morehead I'itv resident, the
county agent, and several veterinar
ians and farmers.
These conditions in the animals
were caused undoubtedly by the
lack, or multiplicity of, the X
chromosome in their body cells,
Miss Oaksinith contends.
* Sex chromosomes act as conduc
tors for the electro-magnetic cur
rent with which all organisms are
embodied and act as growth regu
lators, according to the results ot
Miss Oaksinith's research. In other
Words, she sa.Vs, too many sex
chromosomes bred into the cells
of an Organism will cause wild, dis
organized multiple growth.
Unbalance Causes Disease
The tissues of each animal have
a different protein .makeup and
when the polarity of their cells is
upset the unbalance which causes
disease takes place. Experiments
with animals in regard to this
theory produced monsters that
were scrawny and subject to fits
and in many instances born with
out heads or hearts. Changed
genes causing an unbalance of the
system were responsible for these
monsters', Miss Oaksmith com
ments.
All the experiments made con
vince Miss Oaksmith that the the
ory of Bechamp'was right, that dis
eased conditions arise from unbal
anced genetical factors within the
human system. Bechamp holds that
multiple living organisms rise from
within the body through unbalanc
ed factors, thereby causing disease
from within the system and not
from without, as is the theory of
modern medicine, declares the
Carteret county scientist.
Rules Out Germ Theory
If all factors in human body cells
are completely in balance, the body
will be totally resistant to all < I is- 1
eases, Miss Oaksmith believes. She
contends that diseases are not car- ,
ried by viruses and other germs but
instead they occur within the sys
tem when an unbalance of certain
cells takes place, the kind of dis
ease depending on the type cells
not in balance.
Because doctors look for the
cause of a disease from without
the system they have not found
the cause of many maladies, is
Miss Oaksmith's contention.
Accordingly, her experiments 1
were aimed at creating human dis
eases in animals through gynand
erism. control of the X chromosomes
in their conception and growth. In !
a normal cell there will be only
one X chromosome while in some
of the animals she experimented
with a multiplicity of these chro
mosomes was produced and in oth
ers it was lacking.
Thus the diseases were created j
and through research with the ani- i
nlals and experiments with diseas
ed cells, Miss Oaksmith claims to
have found the cause and cure of 1
cancer and paralysis, particularly i
spastic paralysis.
Now that this cure has been
found she intends to apply for a
patent on it and after this ks se
cured an attempt will be made to [
market the cure.
If it works, Carteret county, and
the world, will pay homage to the |
woman who has spent 1 f? years, j
most of them in total seclusion, 1
working on what could be one of j
the greatest benefits for mankind, j

Story on Island
A story about Ocracoke by Jay
J. Dugan is scheduled for publi
cation in the Ford TIMES this sum
mer, according to an announcement
from the State Advertising bureau.
One large potato dealer told me
recently that it was not the better
trade this year that was buying
North Carolina grown potatoes on
the open market, and that once a
load was sold that very seldom a '
second order was purchased Quite
often purchased orders have been
turned down at the other end of
the line due to the condition of
the potatoes It it 'were not for the
government purchase program
even though it seems like a veiy
low price, I don't feel that there
would be a market for a greater'
percentage of the North Carolina
grown Irish cobbler variety.
The leading chain store* hav
refused to purchase North Carolina
grown Cobbler.
Potato growers who hope to con
tinue producing potatoes as a part
of their livelihood must resort to
another better qualit> varwt> that

more attractive package.
With the rapid progress now tak

which ones the Experiment Sla

even though 10 days to two weeks
later matuiing than the Cobbler,
seems to be gaining 111 popularity.
At the present time the SebagO
variety is less subject to disease,
is capable of being washed, is
reaching the terminal market and
meeting competition ot varieties
produced in other areas. It is .sell

The American Waterways Opera
tors. Inc., the national association
of the barge and towing vessel in
dustry. Excerpts from the article
follow:
"One of the most remarkable de
velopments in inland waterways
transportation has been the ap
preciable increase in the number
of new products being shipped in
water-borne commerce.
"Development of new industrial
plants along the improved inland
waterways has diverted trade to
the river carriers. The principal
traffic of this nature is coming
from the rapidly expanding chem
ical industry. By developing spec
ially built equipment, the towing
industry has kept pace with these
industrial shipping needs.
"Many new products in, water
borne commerce originate in Tex
as and the Southwest, passing thru
the ports of Mobile, New Orleans,
and Houston Galveston.
"Perhaps the most spectacular
of the ne\* uses to which watei
transportation is being put is the

automobile, on specially designed
triple-deck barges in integrated
