Cancer society and FTC
would rather fight than quit
United Press International
NEW YORK — The American
Cancer Society board voted Satur
day to join the Federal Trade
Commission in a search for bigger,
better and more numerous health
hazard warnings on cigarette
packages.
The new attack on the reservoir
of ignorance about the dangers of
smoking was proposed during
closing sessions of the four-day
ACS annual meeting. The 117-
member board voted in the prop
osal.
The proposal was part of a re
port from the Committee on
Tobacco and Cancer. It was out
lined in the draft of a letter of com
ment on an FTC staff report claim
ing present warnings on cigarette
packs are worn out and ineffec
tive.
The Tobacco Institute was not
immediately available for com
ment on the proposal.
Excerpts from the draft of the
letter that will be sent to the FTC:
—“The ACS is willing to work
with the FTC to create and test a
series of powerful warning labels
for cigarette packages and adver
tising.’
—“The ACS recognizes that the
size of warning labels is too mod
est, that the current message is
much too imprecise, and certainly
too familiar — as the FTC report
shows. It is, indeed, worn out.”
—“The ACS believes that a
stronger design is required to
make a warning label visible and
effective, that it should be made
larger than at present, and that
multiple specific warnings rotated
in sequence or at random would
probably be more effective than
any single warning, no matter how
detailed the latter might be.”
—“It is shocking to learn from
the FTC report that about 20 per
cent of the American public, or 30
million adults, do not even know
that smoking causes cancer. Forty
percent, 60 million people, do not
know that smoking causes most
lung cancer.”

■ WASHINGTON — An unem-
pl jment rate of 8 percent. More
J;m8.5million Americans unable
llfindwork with another 1 million
lo discouraged to look.
■ithe White House calls the dis-
lal figures a “natural short-term
msenuence of unwinding the
peply rooted inflation that is im-
plded in the American eco-
ifcmy.
I Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-
lassachusetts, says they indicate
VIA p he worst economic mess since
■e Great Depression” — the re-
ICS lilt of a “schizophrenic economic
IJolicy of combining a tax cut with
ujtight money policy.
AFL-CIO President Lane
jrkland also blames President
Reagan s, economic policies. He
ills those on the unemployed
ills “victims of this engineered
cession.
The October unemployment fi
bres released Friday by the
abor Department were expected
wtfobe higher than September, but
|ot many observers expected the
jatetojump from 7.5 percent to 8
lercent.
^ i I The number of unemployed
f I pas the highest since the depart-
aent began its current method of
mining data in 1947, eclipsing
Jhe previous high of 8,398,000 in
May 1975.
It meant that 1 million workers
jecame unemployed since July,
lushing the jobless rate higher
han any time during President
Darter’s administration and well
ibove 7.4 percent when Reagan
ook office.
Unemployment rose in all ma-
or categories, particularly among
ilue-collar workers. In the hard-
lit construction industry, 18 per-
■ ent of workers were out ofa job in
Ictober.
Teenage unemployment also
increased to 20.6 percent, up 1.3
percentage points — highest in six
years. Among black teenagers
aged 16 to 19, 46.3 percent were
out of work.
Nevertheless, the White House
announced that the “administra
tion will not adopt quick fix mea
sures to deal with short-run move
ments in the unemployment
rate.”
The statement said: “Elements
of the president s economic prog
ram already in place are sufficient
to provide the basis for a strong
and lasting economic recovery
which we anticipate will be evi
dent in 1982.”
On Capitol Hill, Labor Secret
ary Raymond Donovan refused to
appear before a Joint Economic
Committee hearing to discuss the
matter, saying he did not want to
make any “snap judgments, which
instant analysis would necessi
tate.”
Rep. Parren Mitchell, D-
Maryland, who chaired the hear
ing, forecast a 9 percent unem
ployment rate before the current
recession ends.

Tuck School
at Dartmouth College
Where graduate education
in management began.
The Amos Tuck School of Busi
ness Administration is the oldest
graduate school of business in the
United States. It was founded at
Dartmouth College in 1900 and
continues to be a leader in the
business of educating managers.
From its inception, Tuck School
has offered only the Masters
Degree. This exclusive focus,
combined with its small size, offers
a personalized approach to profes
sional management education
which is distinctive among the
leading business schools. The
residential nature of the program
and close student-faculty inter
action further enhance the quality
of the learning experience.
Tuck School is living proof that
a leading business school need not
be located in a big city. While Ex-
ecutives-in-Residence and other
representatives of the business
community form a steady stream
of visitors to the School, Tuck
students enjoy the fine facilities
of Dartmouth College in the
beautiful New England setting of
Hanover, NH. The problems of
city life can be put aside —at least
temporarily — in favor of academic
concerns.
During the past year, more than
190 companies sent representa
tives to Tuck to recruit from its
140 graduating students. (A
Placement Report is included in
the Tuck Bulletin.) And each
year, 25 managers from industry
come to Career Expo, a two-day
symposium, to share their know
ledge and experience in their re
spective fields. Numerous guest
speakers participate in the class
room throughout the year, and
distinguished overseers contribute
their expertise to the direction of
the School.
Access to Boston and New York
is easy. Both cities are served by
interstate highways and bus.
Amtrak provides service to and
from New York and a scheduled
airline flies to Boston from Leb
anon, NH, a few miles from
Hanover.
