'For al the peo- ple wbo have quit smoking, tbere are still far too many who continue the habit. "Attempts to alter the attitudes of a community are enormously expensive and difficult. That's why we're trying to encourage group- ing of agencies which can pool their personnel and'financial resources to attack the pro- blem?'" Af ter prevention comes détection. "Out of every 100 people coming to Toronto General Hospital -for treat- ment, 40 are still treatable by surgery at that stage. This is pretty encouraging, but it's the 60 who can't be operated on tbat we are% worried about." Screening programs for composed of Messrs. R. Major, G. Carson, J. Rickard, M. Sawyer, D. Moffatt, G.
