sion. That's why you ought to
note the chart shown here. This
detailed report, by an independ-

amount of nicotine and tar in the

AS you can see, there's less nico-

smoke of any other filter cigarette.
There's a special reason for this.
Only King Sano, of all leading

ginia firms.

so million gallons of water a
day. He said that would be more
than enough to supply all of the
county south of Route so
through the year 1000.
Mr.. Richard informed the
supervisors that a contract al
ready has been signed to buy
out the Annandale Water Co. of
James A. McWhorter. The sale is
subject to approval by the State
Corporation Commission, and is
not expected to be closed before
September /.
Mr.. Richards said Annandale
Water Co. customers would enjoy
slight reduction in rates when
the sale goes through because his
firms retail rates are lower than
Annandale's If the sale is not
approved, Annandale customers
may be in for a rate increase be-
cause Mr.. Richards firm has
pending before sec an applica-
ton to increase the price of water
it sells to Annandale. The hear
ing on this application is sched-
uled to take place next Wednes-
day.

resolution asking the State High

Judge Gray disregarded last

The political controversy
