Most Nations Do Not Tie In Smokes, Cancer LONDON (UP!)—The possible link between smoking and cancer is a matter of much controversy in the United States, but elsewhere in the world, a special survey by United Press International reveals, the puffers seem to be smoking more and enjoying it more. A number of factors are involved. For one, the matter of a cancer - cigarette tieup hasn’t even been brought before the public in most countries. For another, a great many nations get their chief tax revenue from tobacco products. Although there appears to be no direct move by any of these governments to keep knowledge of possible dangers of smoking from the public at large, these governments also are not about to cut their own fiscal throats by playing up the cancer scare. Some of these governments; however, in a weak pass at taking note of the situation, have banned public tobacco advertising. Since studies have shown, overseas at least, that few new smokers are garnered from advertisements, and since a confirmed smoker doesn’t need advertisements to keep him interested, this has had little effect on the smoking rate. In fact, the number of smokers, and cigarettes consumed, continues a sharp annual rise. In those few countries where alarm has been raised in medical circles and the government, some odd solutions have been advanced. The West German Health Ministry wants the tax on cigarettes reduced. Ministry officials say that a boost in the tax would force smokers to puff each butt down to the very last drag, thus increasing their intake of harmful by-products. Pointing to the United States, where the unit cost to the smoker is considerably less, these officials state that American smokers, because of the lower cost, puff away a few times and then toss the cigarette away before it burns down to the so-called "danger point.” On the other hand, a committee of the Royal College of Physicians has called on Britain to boost its already sky-high tax on cigarettes on the theory that if the cost of cigarettes goes high enough, it will become prohibitive for most persons to smoke.

Crisis Is Nearing In Hyannis, Mass.

EDITORS NOTE-What wfl! be the fate of the southern Negroes who have been given one-way bus tickets to a town near President Kennedy’s summer home? The situation is approaching a crisis and this dispatch tells about the problems facing the village es Hyannis, Mass. By HARRY FERGUSON United Press International HYANNIS, Mass. (UPI) — The clock is moving relentlessly toward crisis hour for this village some four miles up the road from President Kennedy’s summer home. The next week will determine whether Hyannis wins or loses its struggle to take care of the destitute southern Negroes whom segregationists are sending north on one-way bus tickets. Housing is the crucial problem. Most of the Negroes now are living in the dormitory of the Cape Cod Community College, which opens a summer term in mid-June. They must move out then and, as of now, nobody can say where they will go. News of Hyannis* troubles has got around the country as witness this unsigned letter received by the town authorities from Natchitoches, La.: “My, my, what has come over you folks in Hyannis? Don’t you know Teddy Kennedy rolled out the red carpet for the first Negro that went to the land of freedom? Teddy said Massachusetts is where freedom started. The Negroes in the South were satisfied until the Kennedys started to ram the Negroes down people’s throats.” ( The key facts of the situation here are: It is not true that a "Little Harlem” suddenly has sprung up in the yard of Kennedy’s summer home. His home is in the neighboring village of Hyannis Port. It is located in what is known as the “Kennedy compound,” a fenced area containing houses belonging to the President, his brother Robert and his father. —Everybody here agrees that the segregationists are trying to embarrass the President because of his civil rights stand, but, judging from the mail arriving here from the South, Robert Kennedy is the real target of resentment. There are frequent references in letters and post cards to the position he took on the issue of the freedom riders in the South. —Negro men can find temporary work here during the tourist season, but will be out of jobs after Labor Day. —Not everybody in Hyannis approves the position of the town authorities in welcoming the southern Negroes and trying to find a place in the community for them. (“There has.been some grumbling, all right, but is is a small minor-

ity,’’ one official said.) —Not everybody In the South approves of sending the Negroes to the North. The Little Rock, Ark., Chamber of Commerce issued a statement saying “only a small minority of Little Rock citizens are supporting the movement.” Southerners who write encouraging letters to Hyannis officials frequently enclose an editorial from the Arkansas Gazette of Little Rock noting that 20 children were among the Negroes leaving on one weekend and adding that the sponsors of the trip “succeeded in bringing a measure of undeserved shame down upon the whole of Arkansas.” So far as Hyannis Is concerned, the children are the toughest problem. The number Os Negroes to be cared for fluctuates because some of the single men leave immediately for New York, Boston and Philadelphia as soon as they see conditions here. But at one point there were 49 southern Negroes here and 33 of them were children. Their ages ranged from 17 down to 18 months. Three women who either arc separated from their husbands or have been deserted have a total of 27 children. “The prob 1 e m here,” said Thomas Murphy, the village official in charge of welfare, “is that we d on’t want the mothers to work even if we can find jobs for them. There is nobody else to look after the children. I would estimate that it costs SIOO a month to take care of each Negro who has come here. Fortunately for Hyannis, the state classifies these people as “unsettled persons” and reimburses us for the money we spend on them. But there still is no answer to the housing problem once we have to move them.” More than one-half (55 per cent) of employed women in the United States are married. Nevada has the highest suicide rate in the United States —26 per 100,000 population. Aborigines, a name first applied to an ancient Latin race, now applies to the original inhabitants of any country. The North Amer; ican Indian is an example. A new 88-inch cyclotrop is now operating at the Berkeley campus of the University of California; scientists say it will per* unit new nuclear explorations. University of California food scientists have created a highvitamin drink of tomato juice with a dash of juice from ripe, red bell peppers-
