Page 2 Yale Doctor Proposes New Type Cigarette By ALTON L. BLAKESLEE SAO PAULO, Brazil #—A try at making cigarettes safe from any threat of heart disease and cancer was proposed today by Dr. E. Cuyler Hammond of Yale Uni- versity. The answer, he said in a paper for the sixth International Cancer Congress here, could be to develop new types of strains uf cigarette tobacco free of the agent or agents which some scientists suspect may be causing or contributing to heart trouble and cancer. This might be accomplished in two years, but it might take as many as seven, the specialist said. Hammond is a biometrician at Yale and also director of statistical research for the American Cancer Society. He and Dr. Daniel Horn reported last month that men aged 50 to 70 who smoke a pack of cigarettes daily are about twice as likely to die of heart trouble or cancer of all typés as nonsmokers. Smoking a pipe or cigars seems not to carry much if any risks, said | Hammond, a pipe smoker himself. The danger from cigarettes, he went on, could be in the special types of tobacco which have been developed for cigarettes. These tobaccos, he speculated, | could contain one or more chem- icals which adversely affect the heart, blood vessels, lungs or other tissues of some people. | From the viewpoint of the pub-| lic, “the happiest solution is to make smoking safe,”” Hammon de- clared. Development of a “harmless strain of tobacco plant” would be mote practical, he asserted, “than to use a highly toxic strain and then attempt to remove the harm- ful ingredients from the tobacco by chemical means or from the smoke by a filter or condenser.” He said the chemical, composi- ‘tion varies considerably in differ- ent types of tobacco, even in dif- ferent batches of the same general type.
