"CP PHOTO i the exchange rates are favorable or WHETHER whether they are not, the government services should do business 'like other people have to do in the matter of handling United States money. In fact, such places as the Post Office (and the liquor store) should set the example in good business methods and service. It is pretty ridiculous that the Post Office, as it is doing, should just not accept American money because there is a discount against it at the bank and, if the clerks take it, they have to pay the discount themselves. Naturally, if that is the best the Post Office authorities can do, the money has to be turned down with all the inconvenience and ill feeling that may be entailed..

They are: education, research and welfare. Z. The Society's educational program is directed toward acquainting people with the need for early diagnosis and adequate treatment ; and toward dispelling the sense of fear which has existed for too Igng a period of time. t As far as research is concerned, much emphasis can be put upon this aspect of the Society's endeavors. Cancer continues to baffle our doctors .and scientists. We must encourage them to pursue their investigations aimed toward the ultimate eradica Wpn of one of the worst human scourges of all time. E In the field of welfare the British Columbia Division helps needy cancer sufferers with costs of transportation to and from a treatment centre with Wmg home care; with drugs; and with housekeeper service in the home. The Society does not pay for diagnosis or treatment but its welfare program ensures that a cancer sufferer need not delay treatment because of inability to meet these additional and related costs. 2, Prince Rupert will come more fully under the Uneer Society's benefactions with the first travel-. lung clinic due to visit here next week Tf, 7f jT; " -v a; '3 L J " 1 i I -- -i !
