Surgeon General Leroy E,

But, DR.. Burney added, "it is
clear that heavy and prolonged
cigarette smoking is not the
only cause Of lung cancer" He
said the Public Health Service
favors more research into the
problem. and added:
The precise nature Of the
factors in heavy and prolonged
cigarette smoking which can
cause lung cancer is not
known"
The statement marked the
first Public Health Service
pronouncement on the subject
since 1854 when 1t took note
Of evidence Of a statistical as
ISOLATION between cigarette
smoking and hung cancer.
DR.. BurneyN gave no new
proof. but cited results Of pre-
vious studies, especially one by
a special study group made
public last March.
His statement brought an i'm

Surgeon General Reiterotes Opinion
That Heavy Smoking Causes Cancer

DR.. Little said in New York
that DR.. Burney's statement
adds nothing new to what has
been known about the cause OF
lung cancer. 1t reflects the
opinions of some statisticianS
and the relatively few expert
mental scientists who have &C
lively charged that cigarette
smoking is a cause of lung
cancer"
DR.. Burney said:
while there are naturally
differences of opinion in inter-
preting the data on lung cancer
and cigarette smoking, the
Public Health Service feels the
weight Of the evidence is in
creasingly pointing in one di-
rection: That excessive smok-
ing is one of the causative fac
tors in lung cancer"
The special study group
quoted by DR.. Burney was es-
tablished in June 1856 by units
of the Public Health Service
in cooperation with two private
health organizations 1t h G
