We were in process of compling a rebuttal to
Messrs. Bell,
Jones and Laing concerning their Intertek Report
Number 3, when we
received the letter from Dr. Green and the
comments from R. & D.E.
on the same subject. These cover veil nearly all
the points we were
going to Laise, hence little need be added by on
at this time.
Vhile we recognise that meaningful heating rates
can only
re-illy be obtained by direct c*asure?aentsp we
have recalcilated our
our figures based only on the distance moved by
the 7CC-*C contour,
the heating rates being shown below.

1.0 167
1.3 194
1.4 1V
1.5 153
These results, seem to be more meaningful than
both our earlier
reported average rates of heating and those fror,
direct measurements
by L. & r.t., in view of the surprising figure in
the latter for the
packing density of 1.3. The figures indicate that
there, is no
relationship between rate of beating and packing
density for the
cigarettes with the axial channel.
