ATLANTIC CITY. N. J. (W Scientists who experiment- with tars from burning to¬ bacco said yesterday that lung cancer could be reduced bv 75% if people did not smoke cigarettes.
But a spokesman for the to¬ bacco industry said their evi¬ dence was inconclusive.
The scientists served on a panel which discussed a possi¬ ble tie-up between heavy smoking and cancer of the lungs. They took nart in the 47th annual meeting of the American Association for Cancer Research.
Dr. Ernest Wynder of the Sloan-Kettering Institute in New York described work there and at Toronto Universi¬ ty  te  which  mic*  suffered
from skin cancer after being treated with tobacco tar con¬ centrates. His experimental evidence was corroborated by Dr. William Smith of New York University, who said skin cancers grew after ciga¬ rette tar concentrates wera painted directly on the ani¬ mals.
Smith also reported prog¬ ress in attempts at develop¬ ing short cuts in evaluating the cancer causing properties of cigarette smoke tar.
Syndor. Smith and Dr. Rob¬ ert r. Mellors of Sloan-Ket¬ tering said at a news con¬ ference following the pane! discussion that thev were in "general agreement'' with the theory that there would b« 75% less lung cancer it im>
