Of Health and Hazards Now at last the verdict can be called final Not only final, but a matter of history. And not only history, but law. On January 1, the federal statute known as the Cigarette Labeling Act went into effect. Every package of cigarettes must now bear a printed message: “Caution: Cigarette Smoking May Be Hazardous to Your Health.” This law, passed by both Houses of Congress and signed by the President, obviously expresses their opinion that the smoking of cigarettes can harm the smoker. Does anybody e4se agree? Practically everybody: The U.S. Public Health Service, the National Tuberculosis Association, the American Thoracic Society, the American Heart Association, the American Cancer Society, the American Public Health Association, the American School Health Association, and about a dozen other public and private health agencies have gone on record emphatically as believing that there is a link between ciragette smoking and certain diseases of the lungs and other organs. Those nine little words of warning on every pack of cigarettes, placed there by order of the nations highest legislative and executive authority, are a visible symbol of the cigarette threat and its seriousness. Protection of the public against specific products that may be harmful is the normal job of executive departments of the Government, not Congress. When Congress takes it on as a special case, you can be sure it’s important Whether you are a confirmed smoker, a beginner, or someone who’s thinking about starting, your Christmas Seal organization suggests: Next time that “Haz-ardous-to-Your-Health” label meets your eye, think of the things suffered by all the people whose case histories finally helped bring about the Cigarette Labeling Act.
