Tuesday, May 19, 1959 Heavy Smoking Said Accepted as Cause of Cancer Washington (HPD The gov ernment's top cancer expert said Monday it generally is ac cepted scientifically that ciga rette smoking is a cause of lung cancer. Assistant Surgeon General John R. Heller, director of the National Cancer Institute, ad vised heavy smokers to give up cigarettes. If they could not quit entirely, he said, they should cut down on smoking as much as possible. "I think that most of the scientific data show that ex cessive use of cigarettes gives one a greater risk of acquiring lung cancer," Heller said in a copyrighted interview in the magazine U. S. News and World Report. Lung Cancer Increasing He agreed with a question er that it is "pretty well ac cepted now scientifically" that smoking is a cause of cancer. He also said lung cancer is in creasing. "Most of the men who have lung cancer are those who are heavy cigarette smokers," Heller stated. He advised all persons over 45, especially heavy smokers, to have a phy sical examination and a chest X - ray' at least every six months. ; The tobacco industry con tends that no direct connec tion has been shown between smoking and lung cancer. A government report said re cently that there was at least a statistical link between cigarette smoking and cancer. No Immediate Cure Heller said he did not. fore see any immediate cure for lung, stomach or female breast cancer. He said cancers of the lower - bowel, thyroid and female reproductive or gans were responding best to treatment. In 1900, Heller said, only one in every 20 cancer vic tims survived. The rate now is 1 in 3, he said, and the means already exist to reduce this to 1 in every 2. Employers Plan -To Discuss Strike .
