F. S. Register. Of Henderson
N. c., said tobacco growers
"have a right to demand that
they be given fair play and that
they be given fair play and that
the people not be frightened in
to hysteria."
The speaker said "this cam

bacco growers rs million dollars
and has cost federal, state and
local governments $50 million
dollars in taxes.
On the same theme, w. T
Hoyt, of New York, executive
secretary of the Tobacco Indust-
ry Research Committee, said it
is a fact that scientists have
not found any specific substance
in tobacco or its derivatives that
is accused of making cancer even
on the skins of mice"
Hoyt, while noting that accus-
atoms don't constitute proof,
urged tobacco men to arm them
selves with the facts to chal-
lenge any charges that are made
against the use if tobacco that

High taxes on cigarettes rather
than concern about cancer 1.
primary cause Of the drop in
cigarette smoking.
That is what tobacco indust-
~ spokesman recently told q
meeting of warehousemen.
The spokesman, F. M. Porkin-
son, Of Richmond, coupled this
assertion with criticism Of the
Census Bureau for indicating in
a recent report that health fears
were responsible for the slack
off in smoking.
The Census Bureau reported
about 100000 persons had dis
continued smoking cigarettes in
the past 80 months, Parkinson
said with the suggestion that
these statistics should be Of in
terest to the National Cancer
Society.
Burden OF Taxes
Parkinson said the story in
ferred that fear of cancer was
responsible whereas we have
ample statistical data to sup
port the councils stand that il
is the ever increasing burden of
taxes in tobacco rather than a
fear of cancer that has caused
this drop"
The Tobacco Council keeps
close tabs on existing or con-
templated tobacco taxes. And
the council director called for a
halt on additional state and mu-
nicipal taxes on the product.
Parkinson also said the coun-
Gil was fighting efforts by some
states to impose a higher tax on
king size cigarettes. This high
er tax had been successfully op-
posed in Arizona, Oklahoma and
Ohio but the council was defeat
ed on this issue in Georgia
where a cent-highcr tax was put
on the longer cigarettes last
March.
He told the warehousenen
that growing consumer react ton
to high cigarette taxes would
have an ultimate effect upon the
destiny of those who made their
living from tobacco. And, he
added:
