Dear 1‘ioneer
j Dear Pioneer, today we pause
j As friends and loved ones gather
here,
And breath a prayer of thanks to
you
Who found these hills we all hold
, dear.
I Yours arc the hands that cleared
the trails
] And cut the - logs for homes of
j worth—
I Yours are the minds that fashioned
-dreams
I of hope and wisdom for this earth.
i Yours are the children who now
stand
I Where you stood firmly for the
i >'ight;
They caught the vision you passed
on
And fan the flame to keep it
bright.
You walk ahead—we follow on .
And strive to step where you have
trod—
, I We pause this day to honor you
| And bow our heads in thanks to
God..

AGENT OF CANCER IN
TOBACCO FOUND
Paris, Fob. 3.—A French-educat-
ed Vietnamese scientist was credit-
ed today with having discovered
a substance in cigarette smoke
that invariably causes cancer
when injected into mice.
Hut, a report adds, the chemi-
cal can be filtered out of the
smoke.
The discovery of how quickly and
surely this substance causes cun-
ccr in mice was made by Dr,
Xguyen-l’hoe Buu Hoi, II years
old. The discovery was announc-
ed in a paper published by the
French Academy of Science.
The paper says the substance
was isolated in the smoke and
tested by Dr. Buu Hoi after lengthy
experiments in the laboratory
uf the Radium institute of the
University of Paris. The paper
was written by Prof. Antoine La-
cassagne, director of the institute.
The chemical, called 3-4-9-10
liibenzpy ivne, develops when to-
bacco is burned in smoking. It
i one of scores of chemicals mak-
ing up the “tar” in burning to-
bacco. The tar long has been sus-
pected ol increasing the number
i I lung-cancer victims among
smokers. .
Dr. BUu Iloi said it should not
iie difficult to work out a filter
for cigarette holders that would
screen out the dibenzpyrene. It
liquifies readily as the smoke
tools, making it easy to soak up
in filters. £
Dr. Buu Hoi, a descendant of
Hie family that ruled Vietnam for
generations, is director of the
French National Center of Scien-
tific Research, a part of the Curie
Institute associated with the Uni-
versity of Paris. Aloney for the
tesearch was supplied in part by
the United States Public Health
Service.
Dr. Buu Hoi said in an inter-
view that studies had been con-
ducted in the United States and
i isewhere after a seeming assoc-
iation between lung cancer and
ignretfe smoking was reported.
A less complicated substance, 3-4
benzpyrene, was long suspected.
United States researchers an-
nounced in October, 1954, that
benzpyrene had been discovered in
-moke from cigarette paper and
that it caused cancer in mice. Dr.
Hun Hoi said that after ho had
eliminated dozens of other com-
pounds. he settled on tests of_the
dibenzpyrene.
About 4.000 mice were used in
the experiments. Dibenzpyrene,
when injected into the mice, pro-
duced cancer in as few as forty-
two days. Ultimately every mouse
injected developed the cancer. A
dose of a half milligram in each
animal developed the cancer.
When Benzpyrene, a dose five
time as large required up to six
months to produce cancer, and
there was no assurance about the
outcome.
The discovery after three years
or research, Dr. Buu Hoi said, es-
tablishes 3-4-9-10 dibenzpyrene as
the most dangerous cancer-produc-
ing agent known. Long at the
head of the list was 3-1 Dimethyl-
7-9-benzaeridine, not found in' to-
bacco smoke.
The numerals associated with
the names of the substances ex-
plain the structure of the com-
pounds to chemists.
Dr. Buu Hoi was horn in the
imperial Vietnamese capital of
Hue, distinguished himself in
school at Hanoi and was sent here
to continue his studies.
