No! to the tobacco companies, that is. No! to stocking vending machines with easily accessible cancer sticks. No! to youth-directed advertising. No! to the distribution of cigarettes to minors. Scientists and physicians are sending the message: Smoking kills!
Support the FDA's recommendation to control tobacco products. The tobacco industry is working hard to send the message that smoking is great and should not be controlled - and it has lots of money to send lots of messages.
Send your letter to the FDA commissioner today. We don't have the tobacco industry's money, but we do have a powerful collective voice which the commissioner will listen to if we make it known. And we have only until Jan. 2, 1996.
