DRAMATIC ADVANCES MADE PROGRESS IN RECENT YEARS (Recd This day, 9.40 a.m.) LONDON, May 13. “Dramatic advances” in the treatment of cancer were claimed by Mr Cecil Rowntree, senior surgeon at the annual meeting of the Royal Cancer Hospital.

They were constantly curing cancer on the face, lip and the skin generally with such certainty, simplicity and safety never experienced previously. If given such cases in a reasonably early stage they were able to guarantee completely a speedy disappearance.
