of smoking on cancer suscep-
tibility was raised again in the
conference keynote speech by
DR.. Michael B. Shimkin, chief
of biometry for the National
Cancer Institute.
If Americans were to quit
smoking tobacco. at least in
cigarette form. the mortality
from lung cancer could be re-
duced by 10000 lives a year.
DR.. Shimkin told the confer
ence of 1000 doctors and
scientists.
A spokesman for the tobacco
industry quickly countered
that DIR. Shimkin had made
similar charges before-"even
though other scientists in the
National Cancer Institute dis
agree with him"
Edward F. Ragland of
Washington, vice president of
the Tobacco Institute, added
that DR.. Shimkin ignores the
"sizable and growing research
evidence that does not support
his position"

DR.. Heller listed five major
fields for study of possible
cancer causing agents in the
American environment:
Unnecessary exposure to
radiation, smoking, air pollu-
ton, some of the chemicals ad-
ded TO foodStuffs, and some
chemicals handled in industry
and manufacturing.
It is generally considered
that only / per cent of cancers
can be blamed on environ
mental causes, he said in an
interview at the fourth Ma
tional Cancer Conference Spon-
Sored by the National Cancer
Institute and American Cancer
Society.
But, admitting it could be "a
wild guess" DR.. Heller said he
thinks perhaps Is to 20 per
cent of cancers might be
traced to agents in our environ
ment.
DR.. Heller, former head of the
National Cancer Institute at
Bethesda, Md, foresees big
gains from research to find
and then eliminate such causes,
or finding ways of protecting
humans against them.
Such research is admittedly
difficult, he said.
Vaccines against cancer do
not appear right now to be just
around the corner. he said, but
he has hopes they may be
found. Vaccines depend on
finding specific causes, such as
viruSes, which can be used to
stimulate protective antibodieS.
DR.. Heller said that within
his own lifetime there could
come one to three drugs which
bring about permanent arrest
of some few kinds of human
cancers.
The problem of determin-
ing whether chemicals added
to foodstuffs. carry risk of
causing cancer poses "a gen.
uine dilemma" he added. This
is particularly true for chemi-
Gals which produce cancers
only occasionally in some Spe-
cies of animals, and under Ger
tain conditions.
