Christian Education Crusade I t is refreshing to discover that evangelical Christians can work to gether for the cause of Christ. Because of their great concern for the youth of America, and particularly in the California area, leaders of the Gospel Light Press, Scripture Press, Christian Workers’ Service Bureau and the Bible Institute of Los Angeles met recently to co-sponsor a conference for the benefit of pastors, directors of Christian education, and youth directors. Recognizing that the pastor is the true educational director of any church, and that the Sunday school is the missionary arm of the church, a Christian Education Crusade has been planned for these leaders on March 14, 15 at B i o l a . Interested ministers and educational leaders in the local church are urged to write the Bible Institute at 558 So. Hope St. for further information. — T. B. F or the second time, a Federal court has determined that the Hoxsey medicines for internal cancer are worthless. On November 15, 1956, after a six-week trial in the Federal court at Pittsburgh, the jury returned a verdict that these medicines, in pill form, were illegally offered as an effective treatment of cancer.

It merely means that half a million of the Hoxsey pills, which were seized shortly after the opening of a second Hoxsey Clinic at Portage, Pa., will now be destroyed. An injunc tion is being sought to stop further interstate shipment of the,Tulls. In the meantime it is of the utmost importance that cancer patients and their families, who may be planning to try the Hoxsey treatment either at Dallas, Texas, or Portage, Pa., should acquaint themselves with the facts about it. All such persons are advised to secure a copy of the Public Warning which was issued by the Food and Drug Administration last April. They may do this by writing to the Food and Drug Admin istration, Washington 25, D.C. Harry M. Hoxsey has continued to promote his worthless cure for more than 30 years, notwithstanding numerous local and state court actions. Over the years thousands of persons have been deceived by the false claims for the Hoxsey liquid medicines and pills. At the Pittsburgh trial there was testimony concerning persons who may have died of cancer as a result of reliance on the Hoxsey treatment instead of seeking competent medical treatment in the early stages of their condition. The Government’s evidence showed that alleged “cured cases” presented by defense attorneys were people who either did not have cancer, or who were adequately treated before they went to the Hoxsey clinic, or who died of cancer after they had been treated there.

How can I best help do this with my limited means?” The American Bible Society sug gested she put her money into Annuity Agreements, which gave her a high rate of return, freedom from anxiety, and a safe, regular, partially tax exempt income. She knew any remaining principal would be used to further the work of translating and distributing the Bible all over the world. You, too, can help spread the Gospel
