Living in an era of summits and far-reaching experimentation, are we to believe in the aphorism of Oberling that cancer is the failure of medicine? The death statistics of the more advanced countries like the U.K., the U. S. A. and Japan tell us that cancer to-day is the second greatest cause of death. The death of about 10% of all human beings is due to this dreadful and very ancient disease. This is in vivid contrast to the success of preventive and social medicine in these countries.
