520 Surgeon General Dr. Thomas Parran introduces this film by
discussing the war against cancer. He says everyone is a
possible cancer victim and that one in ten people die of
cancer. The film dramatizes one woman's experience with
cancer, showing how education about cancer removes fears
and helps overcome the disease. Includes many shots of
technicians performing research in laboratories at the
National Institutes of Health with Dr. L.R. Thompson
explaining the role of NIH in the war against cancer. Dr.
Carl Verglen of the National Cancer Institute decribes the
various methods of treatment: surgery, x-rays, and radium.
The film shows radium in containers, on a lead conveyor
machine, and radon in tubes being implanted in the cancer
itself. Dr. C.C. Little of the American Society for the
Control of Cancer appears. The film also shows Franklin D.
Roosevelt signing the bill designating one month each year
as Cancer Control Month.
