answers to the many unanswered controversies surrounding smoking and the fundamental causes of the diseases often statistically associated with smoking --we believe can only be determined through much more scientific research. Our company intends, therefore, to continue to support such research in a continuing

search for answers.

We would appreciate your passing this information along to your students. You may also be interested in the enclosed publications presenting the position of our company and the tobacco industry on the issue of youth smoking.
