Koch, Glover

During the meeting of the American Medical Association several smaller medical organizations met. At one of these there was a revival of interest in a cancer serum discovered by one Dr. Koch of Detroit. An investigation made by the Wayne County Medical Society showed that the evidence was not sufficient to warrant any belief in the virtues of the method. At the same time the Philadelphia North American sponsored a story about a serum promoted by one Dr. Glover of Toronto. Investigations by the Toronto Academy of Medicine and by Dr. Francis Carter Wood failed to show any scientific substantiation for Dr. Glover's serum.
