REPORT ON NITRITES AND CANCER A committee of the National Research Council of the National Acadcmy of Science has just com Methodist Women To Observe Call To Prayer The United Methodist Women of Raeford United Mehtodist Church will hold one of their most impor tant annual observances-the Call to Prayer and Self - Denial at 4 p.m. Sunday, January 17, at the church Fellowship Hall. Major events of the observance include the Quiet Day and descrip tions of the mission projects for which a special offering is given. The Women's Division of the General Board of Global Ministries of the United Methodist sponsors the Call to Prayer and Self-Denial. "Support the Struggle Against Racism" is the theme for giving this year. In the United States, the offering may be used to assist, aid and nourish a variety of programs to support the struggle against ra cism. Such projects may include support of minority women in the ministry or assistance to an organi zation in its efforts to make the church inclusive of all people. Support might also be given to assist the work of a church in a "changing" community, to aid a health care resource and advocacy project for people whose health care problems stem from racial discrimination, or to provide edu cational support of young minority children so they can develop an early positive self-image. The development of anti-racist educational resources, especially of history textbooks, is still another avenue through which the struggle against racism can happen. Examples of projects from other countries which may receive support are aid to families of South African political prisioners, assis tance to women of Zimbabwe whose lives have been disrupted by war, and a comprehensive program of training for Bolivian women seeking to overcome the centuries old effects of racism. Aid might go to a project like one that now empowers the Mapuches of Chile to reverse the effects of racism. Sup port could go to improve the situation of Koreans in Japan. The service for the Quiet Day Open Our Eyes, Our Ears, and Our Hearts was written by Mary Lou Santillan Baert. The service sup ports equality and justice for all invites Christians as a community of loving people to deepen their trust, respect and love for all people. About 1 .4 million women in more than 25.000 local units in all 50 states and Puerto Rico will join in the observance. Last year, the offering totaled $847,647. an in crease of 519,438 over the previous year.

The study stated that neither nitrate nor nitrite directly causes cancer in animals. Evidence linking nitrate, nitrite or N-nitroso com pounds to cancer in humans was. mostly, circumstantial. The committee found the largest source of nitrosamines to be oc cupational exposure (for example, in leather tanning or rubber manu facturing industries) and not foods. It is also interesting to note that the committee found that vegetables were responsible for 87 percent of nitrate consumed. The committee is NOT saying people should stop eating vegetables. They are saying that, perhaps, levels of nitrate in the diet might be minimized by changing fertilizing or storage practices. To be on the safe side, the committee recommends that the use of all nitrate salts to be discontinued in all meat and poultry products except: Fermented sausages (Pepperoni, salami, summer sausage, etc.). Dry-cured meats (country-style hams, beef jerky, etc.). Use of nitrate and nitrite salts in these products are important in preventing botulism. HAZEL KAY TOURS Jon. 17-24 ?
