”First-class” congratulations to the American Cancer Society on its successful ”Great American Smokeout” campaign! Thousands of lives will be saved, and the country is again reminded of the negative health effects of smoking.

The Philip Morris cigarette company, by its distributing of 4,000 great american smoker kits to passersby in downtown Chicago, showed absolutely no-class! This publicity stunt was disgusting and morally deranged. Cigarette companies cannot sink any lower–or can they?
