Volunteers Examined 'Smoking Finds Out TORONTO CP) Two Tor onto doctors are completing the first year's operation of a "smoking withdrawal centre' to find out why people smoke, to help heavy smokers break the habit and to study the effect of smoking on human health.

TEST SMOKING EFFECT The second phase involves precise medical tests designed to discover the exact physiological effects of smoking, particularly on the respiratory and circulatory systems. One machine used, a "gas diffusion analyser," measures the amount of gas passing bom a smoker's lungs into the bloodstream.

Such information is vital to the study of chronic bronchitis and empbyaamai two diseases which involve tissue breakdown in the lungs and bronchial system.

Centre' Puff The ultimate aim of the pro gram, says Dr. Moss, is not the finding of a cure for lung cancer but rather a fast, simple way to detect It In its early stages.

A sputum smear test, much like that used to detect cervical cancer in women, is the most promising project this field, says Dr. Moss. Such a test, when fully de veloped, will be good enough to trace the progress of tissues as they deteriorate from a normal state to the "absolute change of lung cancer."

How 'can I get away from myself? M. F. Fenelon once said: "Never let us be discouraged with ourselves.

It is not when we are conscious of our faults that we are the most wicked; on contrary, we are less so. We see by a brighter light; and let us remember for our con- 'solation that we never perceive our sins until we begin to cure them." Self examination js all right if we do it constructively, instead of negatively. If you dwell en your problems, your weaknesses, yon only compound your misery and plight.

A number of foreign governments have bought old homes in a fashionable east side district just off Fifth Avenue for use as headquarters for their UN delegations. The homes are considered the choicest residential real estate in Manhattan, and many have been singled out by the city for designation as historic landmarks. The UN missions that use old homes are in a minority among the 122 member nations. Most have their headquarters In conventional office buildings. Only three delegations the United States, Britain and France-have office space in the UN buildings, and these small, inconspicuous rooms are by no means their main headquarters and are used sparingly.

ERBSEN RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) The government of President Arthur da Costa Silva has completed its first 100 days and the general impression in Brazil Is that it has achieved little. "There is a feeling of drift' says the newspaper Jornal de Brazil.

"They haven't moved from dead centre," says a diplomat. A Joke goes: "A man was ar rested for planning an attack on the president. 'He was going to throw an alarm clock into his office." It made the rounds after Costa Suva's office in Brasilia announced that the president takes a long lunch period and. a siesta each day. Since the 04-year-old retired army marshal was sworn in March IS, political activity has been at a virtual standstill and Costa Silva'r cabinet mem bers have operated their minis tries pretty much as Independ ent fiefs with little co-ordina tion.

Some have been busy snip ing at each other. Activity In Congress has been largely limited to Intramural squabbles in the absence of ma- lor problems or legislative pro grams to discuss.

With representatives from vir tually every taction of the gov ernment's heterogenous National Renewal Alliance in his cabinet as well as several army men, Costa Silva has tried to give his government a broad foundation. But he. has ended up In stead with a ponderous structure that hardly moves. The administration's lack of activity and the penchant of its members for travelling extensively within the country and abroad has already brought sharp criticism from virtually ail segments of the press, including those which normally support the government. However, a deep recession has given way to gradual improve ment in business conditions, and plentiful crops promise still greater benefits to the economy.
