FOR CIGARETTE SMOKERS

L, was found that there was
definite statistical relationship
between the death rates and the
amount OF cigarette smoking !
was found that the lung cancer
death rate was al least five times
possibly even sixteen times. a:
high among heavy smokers a:
among those who never hac
smoked regularly
The death rate for cigar snok
ers was slightly higher than 70!
non.smokers. but the rate TO!

different from that for non
smokers.
This is stunning news OF great
significance 10 the civilized world
and il canno! be ignored or con
tradicted by med!ca! authorities
anywhere. The American Cancer
Society certainly has no axe 10
grind II has been conducting tins
study for years and will continue
il for another TWO and a hal:
years. II was originally begun as
a tive.year comprehensive study
to finally resolve the controve-'

The American Cancer Society's
report removes the last vest!se
Of doubt as to the harm being
caused BY cigarette smoking. and
although filtered cigarettes and
other devices may reduce the

we believe the Society'S report
will have a tremendous impact

many Americans will think twice

RUSSIAN WEAPONS

Washington. July 1.-The latest
expert report on Russian weapons
technology indicates the Reds
are gaining on the United States
in this field This was the opinion
voiced by top Pentagon official
a, a meeting of over one hundred
military and civilian officials
charged with the responsibility
Of national security recently.
Secretary Of Defense Charles
E Wilson voiced a different opin.
ion. al the same meeting. in
Quan,!co. Virginia. but the

cate surprising Russian progress
in this tield-and progress not
anticipated BY t. S. experts only
year ago.
The Russian thermonuclear ex.
plosion las, August stunned
many L. S. defense experts. and
the appearance Of all.jet medium
and heavy bombers in Moscow 5
May Day review eight weeks ago
was another eyebrow.raising
event in top L. S defense circles.
The disturbing part Of the pic.
ture is that the Russians are al
ready ahead Of the United States
IN quantity and they need only
quality parity to give them a tire
mendous weapons advantage
L. S. heavy bomber production,
for instance. is just getting start
ed tal!.jet heavy bombers. that is
and the Russians have now
demonstrated to the world their

Recent reports that the Reds
are ahead Of Us. scientists in the
jet engine field are not very en-
couraging either Russian produc'
ton is ssared to military output
while L. S. production is split
abou, 1920 in favor Of civilian
output. and this fact. Of course
gives the Reds an edge.
The recen. signs Of significant
Russian progress tend to lead
some observers to the same con-

AstroIogers Open Convention
At Very Minute Fate Smiled

Under the expansive influence

second day Of its convention in
1 the Shoreham Hotel today, with
aInvestment and Business Con-
troll by Horary Astrology" on the
schedule.
Titles Of other papers being
presented today include "Tran-
sitting Uranus" and "The Astro-
Physics of the Houses"
The convention got underway
yesterday, under the best avail
able harmony of the stars.
The gavel did not sound at
10 am. nor at 10:30. It fell at
1924, when Misfortune had its
fists down and Fate wore a smile.
For months the schedule has
been arranged.
I'VE even picked out the best
weather we could get" said
George j. Mccormack of Fair
lawn, N. j.
Mr.. Mccormack identified him
self as an astro-meteorologist.
He said some 800 astrologers
were expected to attend from all
over the country. Many others
will be unable to attend, he said,
it being impossible to line up the
planets to suit every ones horo-
scope.
The convention will last
through Friday.
Ernest A. Grant, 327 A street
Sc, the federation's executive
secretary, told the opening ses-
sion that mention will be made
later of the groups campaign
against charlatans. He inveighed
against crooked stargazers for
misrepresenting astrology as pre-
cision fortune-telling.
How can they say that. at

he demanded to know. IF any,

one could foretell that, he would
stay home where q car couldn't
get at him. And then the
prophecy would be wrong
The federation hopes to gain
Nationwide license laws some
day. Ohio is the only State
that licenses astrologers now,
Mr.. Mccormick said.
When national recognition
comes. he said. astrology will
take on the dignity it deserves.
The public will pay more at
tention to it.
THAT Geneva convention-we
could have prevented that fail

knew it would collapse before
they even met. The moon was

Democrats May Hold
Tax-Exemption Fight
For Senate Floor
Dy J.. A. o'Leory

Democrats may wait until the
tax revision bill reaches the Sem
ate floor before trying to raise
the personal exemption OF each
taxpayer and dependent from
5000 to $500 q year.
Members Of the Finance Com
mittee. who favor giving more
tax relief to wage earners gen.
orally. have not closed the door
entirely to q motion in the COM
mittee to raise the personal
exemption. But they have al
ready been beaten on q some
what similar move to give each
taxpayer Q $40 credit against
whatever tax he would owe under
present rates.
One supporter Of the higher
personal exemption indicated to-
day that such an amendment
would have more chance on the
floor If it is not voted on in COM
mittee. All signs indicate that it
would lose in committee.
Chairman Millikin, Republic
can. Of Colorado, still had hopes
the Finance Committee would
complete work on the tax bill to-
day. but some Of his colleagues
thought it may take two more
days.
The committee decided yester-
day to go along with a House
provision to allow parents to
claim q 5000 exemption for a
son or daughter even If the child
earns more than 5000 year.
The amendment provides that if
the taxpayer provides more than
half Of the child's support and
the child is either under 10 or
attending college the exemption
may be claimed regardless of the
amount the dependent may
earn.
Committee t f + experts
pointed out however that if the
dependent earns more than $500,
he or she would then file a sepa-
rate tax return. AS a separate
taxpayer, the working child
would get another 5000 exemp-
ton and pay tax on the remain
der.
The committee late yesterday
adopted a new section dealing
with the reorganization of corpo-
rations. and will announce the
details today.

that our soldiers on the Korean
battlefront lacked discipline IA
which had something to do with
the way things went in Korea
There are further implications
that lack of discipline in our
schools contributes and is a
threat to our national security.
Are these the real problems or
are they the symptoms of a fun
damental problem? May it be
that inability to comply with re-
gulations, whether of-~the Army,
the home or community, stems
from lack of self-mastery? Should
not our society develop people
with qualities of self discipline to
develop initiative and intelligence?
The teacher shortage is another
problem. During 1854. it is in
dictated there will be a shortage
of $4,000 teachers in our elem
entary schools alone. In the next
three years. forty five states will
run short Of elementary teachers
and twenty states will find them
selves short of high school teach
ers. On October II, 1858, News
