Lung Cancer Rate Higher In Britain

By DELOS SMITH UP.I Science Editor NEW YORK (UPlJ—“Dimping" or “decking" may explain the challenging fact that the rate of lung cancer is much higher in Great Britain than in the United States although the cigaret smoking rate is about the same. So believes a team of British medical investigators and statisticians who looked into “dimping” and “decking” among 1,000 Englishmen. To “dimp” or to “deck” is to_snuff. out a cigaret and save the butt for relightirig. ..The Britishers believed there is very little of that in America. But among their 1.000 englishmen there was a lot of it. Among the 667 who had lung disorders other thari cancer. 39.1 per cent had the habit, and ish in Lincoln. Neb., on his 30th anniversary in the ministry and his fifth anniversary at Lincoln. The Rev. Richard C. Ludwig announced that advent services arc to be held the first three Wednesdays in December at 7 p. in.

Saddened World Honors Kennedy

By Vnlted Press Internationa! “While rivers run to the sea . . . while heaven feeds the stars, ever shall thy honor, thy name and thy praises endure.” ’ —Virgil A saddened world continued to carry the life of John Fitzgerald Kennedy to future-gener-ations today by giving his name to its villages, its schools and its children. The grief that attended the President's assassination has been followed in the past week by tribute from every corner of the globe—a testament to political leadership and courage In an uneasy Berlin and Latin America, two of Kennedy's major concerns as President, were among thp first to honor him. 'ln the divided city, a Raftermillion Berliners gathered to dedicate to the late. President ; the htige square in front of city hall, where Kennedy last summer so dramatically won their hearts by saying that he, too, was a Berliner. Residents of Barrio Del Techo a' housing development on the outskirts of Bogota, Colombia, voted in a mass meeting to change the name of their little town to Joffh F. Kennedy Village. The President personally inaugurated the Alliance for ■ Progress project in December,

among the 333 men with lung cancer, 53.2 per cent had it. Another Factor Suggested The difference in lung cancer incidence among British and American men is challenging to the scientists who associated cigaret smoking with lung cancer because it suggests something else must be involved — since the Britishers and Americans seem equally addicted to •cigaretes. Indeed, the British investiga- • tors said this was one of “two facts which have not been satisfactorily explained” even though they believed the evidence associating cigaret smoking with lung cancer was “overwhelming.” The other unexplained fact, in their thinking, is why the lung cancer rate is higher among city smokers than rural smokers — in both countries. Their 1,000 men were all patients of a chest clinic. All were over 50 year's K old, all weyq cigaret smokers for 20 years or longer. The usual statistical comparisons of number of daily cigarets' over the same span .of years revealed the usual association, that is, lung cancer patients had smoked more for longer times. To this usual comparison, the investigators added those of “dimping” and “decking.” Statistically speaking, the lung cancer patients were more persistent about* ,it and had been lor longer. Some relighted the same cigaret several times and rarely threw a cigaret away after only one lighting. “Dimping” and “decking” was most closely associated with lung cancer among the , men who smoked fewer than 30 . cigarets daily. Their lung canjcer incidence was statistically . ; comparable to men who smoked two packs or more daily. The investigators suggested that the lighting of a cigaret was a more meaningful factor in "lung cancer statistics than the smoking. Among their “dimpers” and “deckers”. it ; was the number of cigaret light- . -i ihgs which had the closest sta«tistical association with lung is cancer.

1961. Across Latin America and Europe, the names of schoolhouses, streets and plazas were being changed in tribute to Kennedy. Lebanon renamed downtown Rue Clemenceau in Beirut as Kennedy Street. Algerian President Ahmed Ben Bella dedicated a suburban-' Algiers square to Kennedy and the small fishing village of Luanco on Spain’s northwest coast named one of its streets after the president. , Not only abroad, but in his own country was Kennedy honored. Tributes came alike from impressive legislative halls and modest homes. America’s space port. Cape Canaveral, was renamed Cape .Kennedy. Resolutions were adopted across the nation to rek dedicate, streets' and expressways to Kennedy. The proud mother of newborn twins in Chicago named them John Fitzgerald and Jacqueline Bouvier.” Scores of resolutions and suggestions were made for honoring . the late President A New Hampshire congressman proposed that a peak in the state’s presidential mountain range be renamed for Kennedy. A West Virginia newspaper suggested that the state consider changing its name to Kennedy or Kcnnediana.
