One claims life expectancy in New York City has nearly doubled since 1800, while the other notes cancer deaths across the United States rose from 638 per 100 000 in 1940 to 91 9 in 1924 and that cancer ranks fourth among major causes of death with about 103 000 deaths that year and over 200 000 sick. Dr Haven Emerson cites improvements in life span and infant mortality. Dr George A Soper warns cancer is increasing and now a leading threat behind heart disease pneumonia and cerebral hemorrhage.
