NO CHINESE CANCER

SIR,—] feel sure that all your readers, as well as those of your other journal New Statesman, will be delighted to hear of the sudden cessa- tion of lung cancer in the Peace Loving Peoples Democratic Republic of China. They will hope that Mr. Visnawathanarayanan can give them the same assurance with respect to cancer of the mind.—Yours faithfully,
