would be a greater failure than
the prohibition law of an earlier
era.
Until tobacco is proved a
poison for everybody" then
everybody" has the right to
make his choice between absti-
hence and smoking.
And what is the capable and
honest" physicians duty in pre-
senting the problem to the pub
lie? Primarily. it is to be inn
partial. Personally. I do not take
sides. I say what I think is true,
and leave it to each reader to
agree or disagree.
For the benefit of those of you
who have not read my previous
ly expressed views. here they are
in brief: When nonsmokers come
to me and ask me If they should
begin. / advise them not to. !
tell them the easiest way to
break a habit is not to get it in
the first place.
I tell patients that I have
smoked moderately for years.
And that statistics have not yet
convinced me that lung cancer
is due to cigarette smoking. !
also add. that as soon as / am
convinced, I would be stupid not
to throw my cigarettes out into
the trash can.
I still advocate that tobacco
consumption is a personal prob
lem. If your doctor advises you
to abstain for specific reasons,
do so without question.
Don't continue to smoke just
because your neighbor does.
Especially If you suffer from any
of these conditions: stomach
ulcer. coronary disease, hyper
tension, Buerger's disease, bron-
chitis, or any other condition
that proscribes the use Of to-
bacco.
