Firsl Case Of Cancer From Atomic Burn

TOKYO (AP) — The English- iunguage Japan News says the first recorded case of cancer as the aftermath of an atomic burn has been reported in Japan.

Immediately after the atom- bombing of Hiroshima and Nagas- aki in 1945, widespread cancer was predicted. The United States atomic bomb casualty commission conducted a series of studies using the victims of the atom bomb as subjects, but the specific findings of that group have never been fully revealed.

The first malignant growth to be diagnosed as cancer and attributed to the atom bomb was announced by Dr. Chute Tamaglwa. a path- ologist at Hiroshima University.

The doctor said the victim is 34 and suffered burns an the back of the head when the atom bomb exploded nine years ago. The wound had not healed, and re-

cently cancer was detected.
