He commented that he felt enough is now known to urge against smoking by teenagers, against inhaling, and for abstinence by those unable to practice moderation. Board members indicated that there were other air pollutants such as automobile smoke, industrial fumes and dusts, and so forth, that could be possible causes of cancer.
