hand can ward off cancer and even cure it These are some of the misconceptions about cancer which various food fanatics and crackpots have held throughout the ages None of them of course is true Science has not found that any dietary item can lessen one's chances of getting cancer or recovering from cancer Aluminum cooking utensils were once thought by some to cause cancer A lot of people still believe that chemical fertilizers used instead of the oldfashioned organic kind make people more susceptible to cancer Another myth which has grown only in comparatively recent years is that water fluor- idation causes cancer Summer 1956 MODERN LIVING with its rapid tempos and nervous tensions is held by many people to be a cause for the increase in cancer which has been noted since the first World War This actually can be considered to have some slight basis in fact since modern living the sense of mod- ern science contributed to the greater longevity of our people making it possible for more of them to live on to old age when cancer strikes most frequently On the other hand modern man sometimes does unwittingly create an environment conducive to the growth and development of certain cancers Man in his unceasing quest to add to or improve upon his crea- ture comforts and conveniences has already developed as an offshoot or product of his present industrial civilization more than 400 chemical substances which have Air pollution analysis University of Southern California Studying mist particles as a factor in atmospheric pollution been identified as carcinogens meaning they can cause cancer in human beings or experimentally in animals Hence as regards cancer the called blessings of civilization would appear to be not un- mixed The very air we breathe may contain causing particles Science has known for a long time that certain hydrocarbons cause cancer These exist in coal tar products soot incompletely combusted gasolines and oils Traces of them have been reportedly found in cigarette smoke and they exist in smog and industrial dust A scientist work- ing under an American Cancer Society grant at the University of Southern California and Los An- geles County Hospital has recently induced cancers in mice merely by having them live in and breathe an atmosphere contaminated with these compounds , However there is a vast re- difference in the carcinogenic potential of the air we breathe as compared to the extremely dense smogs in which the laboratory mice were reared The analogy might be that of breathing concentrated poi- son gas in a closed chamber as against inhaling minute quantities of it in the open air the difference is that of degree and length of exposure Federal state and municipal governments as well as private agen- cies are becoming increasingly aware of the smog problem and industry and labor are working right along with them to protect us As yet science has not proved that any human being has ever gotten cancer by the act of breathing The effects of environmental in- fluences on cancer become more clear when we get down into specific industries where the workers employ materials which are known to be carcinogenic The conclusion is inescapable that certain chemical agents particularly of industrial origin are important factors in the causation of certain types of human cancer It has been noted that there are at least such chemicals known to be carcinogenic to some degree and it is probable that others will crop up as the result of continuing scientific laboratory experimentation In short as our re- search progresses and industrialization grows we will continue to find more cancer causes in our occupational environment In general the occupational agents known to cause cancer do so only in specific organs of the body The list of established to proved causes of occupational cancer is impressive Arsenic tar creosote crude paraffin oil ionizing radiation rays radium and sunlight can if the contact is intense enough and long enough result in skin cancer Asbestos chromate compounds nickel carbonyl tar fumes and ionizing radiation increase the likelihood of cancer of the lung Nickel carbonyl isopropyl oil not to be confused with isopropyl alcohol which is made from it and radioactive dusts and gases are accepted causes of cancer of the nasopharynx and sinuses Aromatic amines used in the manufacture of synthetic dyes cause cancer of the bladder Radium and mesothorium radioactive elements produce sarcoma of bone Benzene and radiations can cause the malignant diseases of the bloodforming tissues such as the spleen lymph nodes bone marrow which we call leukemia All the causes of cancer listed here are demonstrated and widely accepted causes encountered in specific occupations Many other causes are suspected on the basis of statistical and experimental re- search And these are under con- stant study One point should be remem- bered In general the agents mentioned as causing occupational cancer are hazardous only in the form and in the amount in which they are handled in manufacturing processes For instance in the little town of Ampere N.
