The May increase was due main-
ly to an 8 per cent hike in food
prices, the largest monthly in-

NEW YORK, June 23 -UP~The
tobacco industry and sornb mem-
bers of the medical profession dis-
agreed Wednesday with the Amer-
ican Cancer Society report linking
smoking with cancer and heart
disease.
Dr. Charles Cameron, director of
the ASA, said at the American Med-
ical Association convention'fn San
Francisco he was “pretty well per-
suaded" there was a relationship
between cigaret smoking and can-
cer of the lung. ^jr
However, he admitted he was
“not convinced that the evidence
justified as yet a cause and effect
relationship between smoking and
cancer in general.”
Dr Edward J. McCormick, of
Toledo. Ohio, the outgoing presi-
dent of AMA. said he did not be-
lieve the ACS report “really proved
that cigarets are as harmful as
■they say.” He said he intended to
continue smoking his pack-a-day.
