EXPLORATION OF THE UNKNOWN The imagination of man has been stirred by the recent dramatic exploits in space and the live pictures of the moon televised up to the moment of impact of Ranger IX. , Millions of dollars are poured into the space programme, with the public, generally speaking, accepting the fact of the enormous expenses involved. These vast sums are not spent on the salaries of the astronauts alone, nor on those of the thousands of men and women employed in the industry: a very large percentage must, of necessity, be applied to the design, manufacture and purchase of materials -- from complicated electronic equipment to the insignificant screwdriver. This is precisely the case with the scientists at work in cancer research. They are not concentrating on rills and craters, pressure suits and cabins, but on living cells the true behaviour of which is still unknown to man. Surely they are making just as important an exploration into the unknown as are the "space-minded" men of another discipline. Anyone who has seen a small child slowly dying of leukemia or an eleven year old youngster unable any longer to play baseball because of amputation of an arm or leg, does not care too much about the competitive race to the moon -- no matter how thrilling a scientific feat the attempt may represent. They care far more about relieving pain, loneliness and fear in those who, many of them, are sometimes doomed to leave the earth before they have been able to explore even a quarter of its surface. With all this, it is difficult for us to equate the expense of cancer research with that of space research, to recognize precisely how enormous are the sums of money that must be poured into cancer research materials alone. Yet were f^le i lire of cancer to be discovered tomorrow, surely it would be a geater blessing to the human race than the feat of planting some nation's flag atop the moon. April is Cancer Month. The month when homes and industries throughout Ontario will be canvassed. It is well to remember that the hazards for mankind will be far greater should we fail in cancer research than if we fail to reach the moon.
