Dr. Gregory Connolly is director of the office for non-smoking and health in the Massachusetts public health department.(1) ________________________________ . "We are trading them cancer in the form of Camel cigarettes", Connolly told a world health conference. "That is something to be condemned and ashamed of." Connolly did not say when the threats were made or by whom. US tobacco company officials were not immediately available for comment. American Cancer Society chief executive William Tipping said, "(2) ________________________________. Those of us from America can only feel ashamed at our administration's role in undermining world health. Connolly said cigarettes are sold and advertised in the Third World without health warnings and with higher nicotine content than in the US. Later Wednesday, the American Cancer Society announced that its new Trade for Life campaign would help Thailand fight what it called US moves to force open the Asian country's market to American tobacco companies. (3) ___________________________________________. Tipping said the GATT case could set a precedent in allowing international tobacco companies to force their products and advertising on developing countries, he said the first goal of the US $ 500 000-a-year campaign was to bring the moral force of world opinion to bear on American trade policy.
