Dear Mr.. MenJOu:-
AS you know, there are many in
teresting arguments in the ciga-
rette advertisements. But, after
all, the proof of cigarette, like
a pudding, is in how it tastes.
We could tell you that Old Gold
tobacco is picked from the heart
of the stalk (and we did tell you
that years ago). We could tell
you that it's picked sun-ripened
-. and then aged to mellow per-
fection. So rich in natural flavor

subjectively. and in way to give US
utter certainty" he said. That is
why we Catholics are at peace"
