Dr. Nathan Alpert, Baltimore physician presented what he believes to be a positive cure for cancer and other malignant diseases in a paper read before members of the Baltimore City Medical Society. Dr Alpert told several hundred surgeons and physicians that he has affected 32 cures through his method which involves the injection of colloidal metals into the blood of the patient. His paper was received with much interest by the physicians present.

Dr. Howard A. Kelly, noted cancer specialist, who heard the paper read, praised Dr. Alpert’s presentation. He said he would include Dr. Alpert’s report in a book that is now under preparation.

Dr. Alpert, who is 40 years old and a Russian by birth, stated that the metals used by him in his cure are selenium, copper, gold. silver. platinum and lead. He claims he also discovered an antidote to offset the effects of the metal injections.

Dr. Alpert has been in Baltimore a little more than three years, coming here from Berlin. In Germany he was famous for success in the handling of new drugs. Before practicing in Berlin he was graduated from the University of Moscow.
