Emphysema Country
By Janies L . Mack. M J ) „
One cigarette upsets the
flow ot a ir and blood in your
lungs. Years of smoking are
associated with emphysema.
And in the last decade, deaths
from emphysema almost trip ­
led in this country.
To investigate the relation­
ship of smoking and emphy­
sema. two prominent re ­
searchers - D rs .O sca rA u e r-
bach and E . C uyler Hammond
- studied whole-lung sections
from autopsies of 1800 men
and women. T h e n they
checked the lungs fo r the de­
gree of emphysema thatm ight
1« present. L a te r they found
out from relatives the smok­
ing habits of the dead persons.
How closely did smoking
habits correlate with the ex­
tent of emphysema in the lung
Very closely.
Of the persons who had nev­
er smoked regularly, do |x*r
cent had no emphysema a ta ll.
The a ir sacs, where oxygen
and carbon dioxide are ex­
changed, were not damaged
and torn. The walls of (lie
sm all blood vessels around the
a ir sacs were not abnormally
thickened, in contrast, of the
persons who smoked 20 or
more cigarettes a day fo r
years, 99 per cent had some
degree of emphysema. And 20
per cent of these smokers had
advanced emphysema. T heir

Women in the Navy are being assigned to jobs previously

Harbor are now performing p e n jo ts form erly handled by
th e ir male counterparts.
The g irls are assigned as line handlers and coxswain
on the tour boats to the USS Arizona memorial and Pearl
Harbor. They are responsible fo r piloting the 64-foot pas­
senger barges around the harbor and securing the boats to
the p ier.

Portland Public Schools w ill
mark 2e years oi progress in
the field of child nutrition
next week when it joins in the
celebration of National School
Lunch Week, October 9-13.
M rs . Ruth Smalley, co­
ordinator of cafeterias fo r
the school d is tric t, saxi more
than 5 m illio n meals are pre­
pared each year fo r Portland
children.
She said this amounts to
about 29,000 meals per day
and is jointly financed by the
federal g o v e r n m e n t , the
school d is tric t, and by meal
costs. Federal grants under
the National School Lunch Act
amount to $1.3 m illio n oi the
d is tric t's $3.8 m illio n budget
fo r food service fo r 1972-73.
Each year Portland schools
buy nearly 200 tons of meat
and a half m illio n gallons of
m ilk fo r school lunches. In
addition, M rs . Smalley sakl,
Portland school children con-
aime more than 800 tons of
fresh fru its and vegetables
each year.
Since 1940, when the Na­
tional School Lunch A ct was
enacted. Congress has ac­
celerated expansion of the
school lunch program to pro­
vide meals to nearly 25
m illio n school children a day.
C urrently about 30 per cent
of these lunches ir e served
troe o r at reduced prices.
In 1968 an amendment to
the National School Lunch Act
provided special food service
p ro g rim s fo r children. This
made Federal assistant avail­
able fo r both preschool and
school-age children in both
public and private institutions.

sen ling opinions arc simply ___
not
allowed. Once a majority deci­
sion is reached, dissenters are ex
pected to keep their views to
themselves.
Hut on our Supreme Court,
public dissent has a long and re­
spectable history It has been a
regular feature of the Court ever
since 1806, when a holdout justice
voiced his disagreement with
Chief Justice John Marshall.
One great virtue of this right
of dissent ("the only thing that
makes life tolerable," said Justice
W illiam O. Douglas) is that it
may help shape the law of the
future M ajor changes in the law,
including even amendments to
the Constitution, have had rood
in earlier dissenting opinions
from the Court.
Still, dissents, if overdone, can
needlessly weaken both public un­
derstanding and public acceptance
of a Court ruling. A t least, say
critics, a judge should not dissent
merely because of minor disagree­
ment or personal pride.
Statistics do show that rela­
tively few of the dissenting opin­
ions
even those of Oliver
Wendell Holmes, the "Great Dis­
senter”
have ever become the
law of the land.
Is it surprising that dissents oc­
cur so often? Not when one con­
siders the kind of questions the
Court must answer. Almost al­
ways, they are questions on which
even the wisest and fairest of men
may differ The easy ones just
never reach the Court at all
