Oct. 28 (AP)--Ten obstacles which he said hamper control of cancer in the United States were described in a report released today by the American Cancer Society and written by Dr. Clarence Cook Little, head of the Roscoe B. Jackson Memorial Laboratory, the cancer research center destroyed in the Bar Harbor, fire last week. He listed them as 'follows: a Fear of state medicine.

which led to difficulties in establishing clinics for detection and treatment of cancer; criticism of existing facilities rather than constructive effort to improve therm impati4ce of lay groups at the slow rate of progress in research: dislike and distrust which individuals in authority feel toward government research; belief that if people give money for can-i cer campaigns, that is enough; willingness of those engaged in local; cancer education to lereancer compete in the public mind with other disease; over-optimism when clinics1 and other machinery has been set; up to help people discover early cancer: lack of trained personnel; I lack of investigating agencies for testing claims of cures for cancer, and need for more spiritual factors; that will lead individuals to contribute part of their lives to the combat. 1 111 If 1, While indorsing an attack by the Legislative Committee on Highways and Motor Vehicles on the state's failure to build new roads, the Massachusetts Federation of Taxpayers' Associations last night differed with the committee's finding that lack of funds was a contributing cause. "Enormous sums are available for highway construction right now and I cannot see any reason why we cannot start using this money immediately," declared Norman MacDonald, executive director of the tax group. "As of July 1 the Department of Public Works had on hand unexpended construction funds of approximately $28,000,000 available for state highway construction," MacDonald said. "Of this amount the astonishing total of $24,114,698 was completely unobligatedenough, for example, to build a super-highway across the state from Rhode Island to View Hampshire.

"In addition to this more than $15,000,000 of Federal money allocated to Massachusetts is ready and waiting to be matched, dollar for dollar, with state money to provide another $30,000.000 for highway improvements whenever the Department of Public Works is ready 14 use it." -Jo oka' 114 )ir 01111111ERV L. 4 1.
