A Texas institution initiative outlined by Texas Federation of Women's Clubs members emphasizes launching a unique program in January 1953. The plan aims to combat rising cancer deaths, from about 7 000 Texans in 1948 to 8 000 in 1950, with hopes cancer will be conquered someday, possibly by the federation’s own MD program.
