Explained how it would be possible, from this type of teat to predict in advance where, and in what quantities, any of ị the new radio-active materials would penetrate;

Stated that 3-million volt electrical equipment would shartly be available in Paris, with which her husband, Professor Joliot, would make these materials in sufficiently large amounts for these essential tests to be undertaken; and

Expressed the belief that it would be possible to achieve a great advance in treatment by selecting the appropriate radio.
