The grant from the Pew Memorial Trust will go toward a $3.4 million library Improvement plan. Fronts: Cold' Warm ww Associated Press WASHINGTON The National Cancer Institute said yesterday that the aggressive use of existing knowledge could cut the annual cancer death rate In half by the year 2000. The institute released a plan, combining cancer prevention, screening, early detection and treatment, that it said could produce dramatic results by 2000.

"Knowledge gained over the years can be used to control a significant portion of the disease which was responsible for an estimated 462,000 deaths In 1985," said Dr. Vincent T. DeVlta, the institute's director. The plan, detailed in a report entitled "Cancer Control Objectives for the Nation: 1985-2000," calls for stepped-up efforts against cigarette smoking and poor diet and for earlier use of the latest diagnostic and treatment techniques. The strategy would require cooperation from the public, Industry, health professions, news media and government to succeed, DeVlta said.

Among other things, it calls for industry to increase health promotion at work, the news media to better spread Information about prevention and control, voluntary organiza According to the report, 54 million adults, or 36 percent, smoke dally, and this number has to be reduced to less than 15 percent to cut the Incidence of smoking-related cancers by 2000. It noted that, while male smoking Is dropping, women are picking up the habit, and female lung-cancer rates may exceed those of men by 2000. The plan recommended that people reduce the amount of fat In their diets to less than 30 percent of total calories and Increase consumption of fiber by eating more fresh fruits, grains and vegetables. It also called for raising from 15 percent to 80 percent the number of women aged 50 to 70 who undergo annual breast physical exams combined with X-ray mammography. This could reduce breast cancer mortality by 30 percent in this group, it said.

The report prescribed an Increase from 79 percent to 90 percent in the number of Pap smear tests given every three years to detect cervical cancer in women 20 to 39 years old. This testing frequency should Increase from 57 percent to 80 percent In women in the 40-to-70 age group. tions to offer more health education and screening programs at the local level and health professional groups to re-emphasize cancer control In training programs. The national mortality rate from cancer in 1980, based on the latest available data, was 183 deaths per 100,000 persons annually. Dr.

Edward Sondik, an NCI official who helped analyze and edit the report, said in an interview that there is no estimate of how much the expanded anti-cancer effort would cost. "The thing that we are addressing with this report Is that you can do something about cancer now without waiting for some research breakthroughs," Sondik said. "Research is Important and we stress that. The projections we have on reducing cancer death rely to a great extent on the products of past and future research. "But we think there has been a sense that cancer is a problem we can't get a hold of, that we as individuals can't do much about it," he said, "and that just Isn't true." Sondik said that 30 percent of cancer deaths are due directly to smoking, but that the public doesn't fully understand how much can be gained Just by stopping.

Associated Prtss HEBRON, Ky. Charles Watklns will shine shoes for the last time Friday at the Greater Cincinnati International Airport, but he is not leaving -willingly.
