LETHAL AIR

A 747 crashed today. More than 500 passengers were aboard. There were `no'
survivors.

The victims suffered enormous pain and nausea. Most slowly suffocated. Just
the first phase of this flight cost the passengers and their families an
average of $75,000. Some families lost their homes and other assets to pay
for this flight. The descent took about a year.

This airline has a 747 crash every day of every year. More than 400,000
Americans a year get tickets on this flight. They all die.

Every public health official and physician knows this statistic and this
airline. You should too! The name of the airline is Tobacco. Its loyal
sponsors are Rep. Joe Barton, Rep. Kay Granger, House Majority Leader Dick
Armey and Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison.

When you quit re-electing such politicians, anti-tobacco legislation will
finally pass to end these needless deaths. Otherwise, this rate of death
for profit will continue.
