“Vital history, which is to say, unwritten history, floats across our field of vision as a future that could have been but never was—unless we resurrect it now.” (The Underground, John Rappaport)

“Some Informal Remarks on the Treatment of Cancer,” [by] Dr. CW Allen, Professor of Medicine at Tulane University, presented to the Orleans Parish Medical Society, on April 27, 1925: 

“Last October a patient of mine suffering from an inoperable cancer of the rectum asked my advice about the Koch treatment. I strongly advised him to have nothing to do with it, that it had been investigated and pronounced worthless, and that I regarded it as a fraud. He, however, was determined to go to Detroit and consult Dr. Koch. At that time he was emaciated, weighing less than a hundred pounds and was so weak that he had to be carried to the train on a stretcher. Two months later he returned to New Orleans weighting more than 130 pounds, and now weighs 170 and attends to business as usual though there is still some local evidence of his trouble.”

“I am frank to say that I was amazed at the wonderful improvement in this man. I then called on another patient here who was treated by Dr. Koch at the same time. After talking with these two afflicted persons I was deeply impressed, not only by their personal experience but also by statements concerning others with whom they came in contact while being treated.”

BTW, Do Ritalin and other psyctropic 

drugs create violence in children?  

That’s another, ongoing and tragic story)  

“A doctor friend whose wife was in a hopeless condition from carcinoma called on me to discuss the matter and as his wife was unable to travel we wired Dr. Koch and received a treatment. In a similar way I received a dose for a hopeless bladder case of Dr. Walther’s. With these treatments Dr. Koch sent some directions and information as to what would happen following its use. The results were so strikingly as he predicted that I became extremely interested.”

… there are other cases, other case histories, other remarkable successes. Dr. Koch never claimed to be able to cure cancer in all instances. He was always working to improve the treatment. His departure from America was a direct result of harassment by government authorities. Their crimes, of course, went unpunished. They were “protecting the public,” if that phrase is taken to mean: guarding a monopoly, preventing cures, and killing patients.

“‘We the undersigned members of the Michigan State Legislature [25 legislators signed the petition] respectfully pe­tition the Congress of the United States, through an appropriate committee to in­vestigate the injunction imposed by a Fed­eral Court on William Frederick Koch, Ph. D., M. D., a pioneer in the field of research and treatment of cancer, inasmuch a. [sic] recently discovered methods of treatment [that] confirm the research of Dr. Koch, with the end in view of requesting the Attorney General of the United States to have said injunction dis­missed, so that Dr. Koch can continue fur­ther research and practice in his field with­out restriction.’”

That never happened.
