Fallout Danger
To Fish And Deer
Is Discounted
SACRAMENTO, Calif. Wl An
official of the California State
Fish and Game Department said
Thursday it "is conceivable a per
son could get a pretty good dose
of radioactivity" by eating fish
taken from waters containing ra
dioactive snow runoff.
But Frank Bragg, F k G in
formation officer, said there have
been no reports of radioactive
fish being found anywhere in Cali
fornia. The State Public Health Depart
ment had reported that snot
checks disclosed "a level of radio
activity higher than standard in
Sierra snow runoff at Lassen
Park in Lassen County, Donner
Summit in Nevada County and
Gold Lake in Sierra County. It
said the radioactivity came from
fallout from Nevada atomic tests.
Bragg said the department's di
sease and food habits laboratory
also discounts the possibility of
danger to deer and other wild life
from the radioactive runoff.
But he said if the runoff fell
into "relatively quiet waters
where there is an accumulation
of algae thee is a possibility of
fish becoming radioactive."
Dr. Malcolm Merrill, stale
health director, said the radioac
tive runoff would not be danger
ous unless "a person were to
drink the runoff waters over a
period of months."

Little Relationship Between
Lung Cancer And Smoking
Seen By Yale Pathologist
By B. L. LIVINGSTONE
WASHINGTON W Two uni
versity medical men said Thurs
day that statistics suggesting a
cause-and-effect relationship be
tween smoking and lung cancer
are unsupported by proof.
They were Dr. Harry S. N.
Greene, chairman of the Depart
ment of Pathology of Yale Uni
versity Medical School, and Dr.
Ian G. MacDonald, clinical pro
fessor of surgery at the Univer
sity of Southern California Med
ical School.
They testified before a House
Government Operations subcom
mittee whose chairman, Rep.
Blatnik (D-Minn), said at the
start of the day's hearing that
the tobacco industry has been
"conspicuously absent" from the
inquiry. The subcommittee is
studying the effects of smoking
and what degree of protection is
afforded by cigarette filters.
Blatnik said the industry has
been invited to testify, but de
clined to send representatives.
"To date, the cigarette indus
try's response to all of these
charges has been, in effect, 'no
comment,' " Blatnik said.
Greene, the Yale medical school
man, said "the question of a casu
al relationship between tobacco
smoking and lung cancer has
been a persistent issue for a num
ber of years."
He tesiificd: "The statistical
and experimental investigation of
this issue have not succeeded in
confirming the suggestions of a
casual relationship."
He said experiments with smoke

Parents Ask To Visit
Prisoner Of China Reds
LYNN, Mass. li The parents
of an Army civilian employe,
held prisoner by the Chinese Iteds
since 1 1)52, have asked the State
Department's permission to visit
hini.
Mr. and Mrs. Philip Fecleau
said the fact that the State De
partment lias offered to change
its policy regarding visits to Red
China has raised their hopes of
seeing their son, Richard, 2'J.
He has been held as a spy since
his plane was shot down while
en route from Korea to Japan.
Mrs. Fccteau said Red China's
Premier Chou-En-lai save them
permission to visit their son three
years ago, but a State Depart
ment ban on travel to that coun
try has prevented them from do
ing so.

strain of mice failed to produce
cancer at the same rate on other
strains, and failed to produce any
cancer at all on mouse lung trans
plants.
He said that in view of the ereat
difference of susceptibility even
among mouse strains, it would be
absurd to translate the findings
to man.
Cireene added that in some ani
mals cancer has followed applica
tion of sugar and olive oil, "but
the interpretation of the experi
ments has been that something
was wrong with the animals rath
er than that the materials were
cancer producing."
itreene said acceptance of the
theory that the incidence of lung
cancer is increasing may be more
apparent than real due to increased
publicity and "propaganda."
ureens also contended that
man's envirement has changed,
and that environment agents like
polluted atmosphere, industrial
hazards and others "pertain di
rectly to the lung."
He challenged what he said
were "discrepancies" in statisti
cal iindmgs that strongly suggest
a conclusion contrary to that
drawn" by researchers.
Reynolds Metals
Wins Re-Hearing
In Fumes Case
SAN FRANCISCO I - The
Reynolds Metals Co., which lost
a damage suit stemming from op
eration of its aluminum plant at
Troutdale, Ore., Wednesday won
a re-neanng ot uie case.
Paul Martin, his wife, Verila,
and their daughter, Paula, sued
the company and won a verdict
for $38,290 for injuries they said
thoy suffered because of poison
ous fluoride gasses released in the
air by the plant.
Two members of a three-iudge
panel of the U. S. Court of Ap
peals which heard Reynolds' ap
peal, recommended to Chief
Judge Albert Lee Stephens that
tne tun conn sit tor a rc hcann;
of the case.
However, whether the case will
be reheard by the entire seven
active judges of the court or only
a panel is yet to be decided.
The Martin farm was about a
half mile from the Troutdale
aluminum plant. The Martins
lived there from September, 1946
until November, 1950.
he company said in seeking
the rehearing, that the affirming
decision of the Appeals Court es
tablished an "unprecedented lia
bility and that the decision had
"far reaching effects on a basic
industry."
The company added that the
Appeals Court "has branded the
making of aluminum an inherent
ly dangerous activity in all cir
cumstances, regardless of wheth
er it is in fact dangerous."
