you We will appreciate it very much if
will observe the
relative amounts of mineral fiber in the smoke from these four
lots following the same general technique which you used in the
investigation prior to this We hope that the results of your
examination will disclose that we are on the right track We are
very anxious to have the smoke from our cigarettes as free of
mineral fiber as possible least as free or as pure as the air
which we normally breathe This current assignment is not quite
as comprehensive as the first one and we trust that you can find
time to get at it quite promptly If you have any thoughts along
the lines with which ve are concerned please feel free to so
indicate

Dear Dr. F^...llam
we are In line with our recent telephone conversation
sending you
a package containing 12 samples of Kent cigarettes labeled from 1 to 12
These samples represent various treatments which we are currently trying in
the hopes of reducing the occurrence of mineral fiberrin the smoke We will
appreciate it very much if you will examine the smoke from each sample and
let us know as promptly as possible whether or not we have been at all
successful We know from past experience that you like to know the identity
of the samples with which you are worlding However in this instance the
details of the treatments which we have employed are rather complicated and
we doubt that a full description would mean much to you
Very truly yours
