It is alarming to note that The filter tip cigarette allowed Pall Mall filter tip cigarettes more tar and nicotine to pass pass more tar and nicotine to to the smoker than did its the smoker than do the regular plain end Pall Malls without Chesterfield plain passed Moore milligrams of tar and mil The reason for this is that of nicotine per cigaret the Pall Mall filter tip cigarette te while the
