Today, those same otticials heaved a sigh of cautious relief when statistics showed an 18 percent drop in the number of tires this year. While statewide statistics showed a 10 percent increase in acreage burned, local statistics showed a drop in fires. Cool summer weather and increased tire prevention ettorts by citizens were reasons tor the decrease, according to Frank Lew is, tire prevention supervisor tor the Department of Forestry in Fellon Most of the tires that occurred were reported in the San Mateo County portion of the fire area, said Lewis. "We've had very little acreage burned so far in Santa Cruz." he said. Before the tire season began, officials were predicting that 1978 could be a bad year tor tires.

There was an abundance ot fuel that could be dangerous if dry, hot weather rolled around. But cool summer weather reduced the potential hazard, according to Lewis. There were 193 wildland fires recorded this year tor the Santa Cruz-San Mateo area, an 18 percent drop. In 1977, there were 237 fires reported, A total ot 420 acres were burned in the two-county tire area, but most of it occurred in the San Bruno Mountains south of San Francisco, said Lewis Statewide, lire officials said a total of 29,205 acres were burned causing more than $5 3 million damage. The acreage burned is 10 percent more than in 1977.

although there were 9 percent tewer tires this year, said a state report. Lewis warned that the 1978 season isn't over yet. September and October are traditionally bad months for fires in the Santa Cruz County area, he said.

If ZT ceremony. yU The National Cancer Institute says 390.000 Americans die from cancer annually.

The new 20 percent minimum estimate for all worker deaths from chemicals would mean 78.000 deaths. The number of new cancer cases diagnosed each year is 700.000. The study listed a dozen occupations in which it said the workers showed excessive cancer rates, but they have not been traced to any single chemical. They included coal miners, chemists, foundry workers, textile workers, printing pressmen, metal miners, coke byproduct workers, cadmium production workers, and lead, rubber, wood and leather workers. The AFL-CTO convention on worker safety was called to rally opposition to a proposal that would exempt businesses with fewer than 10 employees in non-hazardous industries from inspections by OSHA.

HEW began a campaign in April to alert the estimated 8 million to 11 million Americans who have been exposed to asbestos since World War 11 about its long-term effects. The HEW study said at least 2.15 million of those workers will die from asbestos-related diseases, or 07,000 a year for the next 30 to 35 years.

It blamed asbestos for 17 percent of all cancer cases. The study says 5 8 million workers were potentially exposed to arsenic, benzene, vinyl chloride, coal tar pilch and coke oven emissions, which could cause 1 percent to 3 percent of all cancers each year. Some 7.5 million workers potentially were exposed to four other substances, chromium, iron oxide, nickel and petroleum distillates, which could cause 3 percent to 18 percent of the cancers, the study added. The total for all chemicals would be 38 percent, the top-range for the cancer-toll estimates. ASH1.UT0.N iAPi txposure to chemicals at American work sites may cause at least 20 percent ot all cancer deaths or nearly 80.000 people each year with asbestos apparently the 1 chemical killer, government scientists say.

The new estimates are sharply higher than past figures which placed the cancer toll trom occupational exposure at only 1 percent to 5 percent, Joseph A. Califano the secretary of health, education and welfare, said Monday. Indeed a single chemical, asbestos, may account for 17 percent of all cancer deaths annually. Other chemical culprits include arsenic, benzene and vinyl chloride. Scientists from the National Cancer Institute and the National Institute ot Environmental Health Sciences said 20 percent was a "conservative" estimate of the cancer toll from work sites, estimating it could run as high as 38 percent.

The scientists based their findings not on new medical research, but on new statistical analyses of the number of workers exposed to cancer-causing chemicals on the job and their risk of incurring cancer. Calitano told an AFL-CTO conference on occupational safety and health about the new estimate and released a five-page draft summary of the study. HEW scientists are putting the study into final form to submit to the Labor Department's Occupational Safety and Health Administration by Friday. OSHA is preparing new standards for regulating hundreds of known or suspected cancer-causing agents at work places in hopes of accelerating federal action to ban or restrict them. Critics ol the plan have said it could cost industry billions ol dollars, and some have said the standards are not needed because the incidence of occupational cancer was low.

Dr. David P. Hall, director of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, said scientists who made the low estimates "just haven't looked carefully enough at the problem."

Trustee Cromwell Mcintosh was the only board member who disagreed with the dismissal. The four trustees who did agree to Hazeltine removal all face a recall election on Oct.

That would probably mean a filibuster, he said. Baker said that, while foes of the deregulation-by-1985 compromise may be unable to sidetrack the bill, neither can the administration muster the needed votes to stop a filibuster.
