not due to cell destruction, since they are lowered by radium treatment although radium causes cell destruction, but that they are due to a disturbance of cholesterol metabolism.

2. That the disturbance of cholesterol metabolism may be but evidence of a low rate of basal metabolism, since the high cholesterol values in myxedema are reduced by the administration of the thyroid hormone by which the rate of basal metabolism is greatly increased.

3. That radium treatment, by lowering the blood cholesterol values, alters the chemical composition of the blood, a fact which has not hitherto been taken into account in the study of the effects of radium. treatment.

4. That the administration of the thyroid hormone affects the blood cholesterol values in a manner similar to that of radium treatment and may therefore be expected to be equally beneficial to patients suffering from carcinoma. However, careful investigation (in progress by the writer) will be needed before definite conclusions can be drawn concerning the effect of thyroxin in carcinoma.
