MALIGNANT MELANOMA
One Australian dies every eight hours as a result of malignant melanoma. Contrary to popular belief most of these malignant tumours do not arise out of a pre-existing mole or a freckle. 70 per cent develop from normal skin.
There is no doubt that the malignant growth of a melanotic tumour is triggered by the action of sunlight. The further north the white population moves in Australia, the higher their risk of melanoma. Queenslanders' have the highest incidence of malignant melanoma in the world.
Left too long melanoma spread rapidly. They embolise quickly and seed all the vital organs of the body. Treated promptly melanoma are curable in 100 per cent of cases.

White Australians do best to stay that way. If tans are needed for cosmetic reasons adequate supplies come from a bottle. It is just as easy to dye the skin brown, as it is to dye the hair.
Ultraviolet protection by way of clothing has yet to hit the heights of fashion. There is no reason why creative clothes designers cannot take ultra violet light into account when they produce their garments. If Australian fashion develops a truly indigenous quality it will be because the factor of sun protection has been designed into its creations.
Long trousers, long sleeved shirts and hats are the order of the day from Melbourne on Port Phillip Bay to Bamaga at the tip of Cape York. People with a history of sunburn or frequent tanning can never relax surveillance of their skin. Any skin change that produces bleeding, ulceration, the formation of a lump, increased pigmentation or the changes in the outline of a mole or a freckle require immediate assessment by a medical practitioner.
