Dear Bill,
8 th September, 1981
With apologies for the delay, I have now had the
opportunity to look
into the DELTA panel files with respect to the
samples I supplied to you
in connection with Project INTERNATIONAL.
As you know, the DELTA method is strictly a
technique which reveals
relative differences between the products entering
a patticular test. It
is therefore somewhat invalid to suggest absolute
characterizations of the
specific cigarettes listed. In any case, I am sure
you would wish to
undertake your own evaluations in due course, not
least to account for
peculiar Canadian product expectations.
I mention those points only to caution against too
definitive an
interpretation of our reports in regard to your
particular interest in theme
cigarettes. Nevertheless I txuat that the enclosed
will be of a
assistance to you. I regret that data are not
avaLlable for samples X702,
2 V and HE (Switzerland) since these have not been
looked at by the DELTA
panel. Also, our only evaluations of EB (Germany)
were undertaken quite
som time ago, do not relate to the current
product, and therefore have not
been circulated.
Data on the following products are enclosed:
Codeds N588
N209
Brandedi Krone
Lord Extral Germany
R6
Vanguard, U.K.
Please do not hesitate to got in touch again if I
can be of any
further assistance.
With best wishes,
0 N
Yours sincerely, c0
