CTR, Industry Research Committee

Defense

The CTR, Industry Research Committee met in Lexington, KY on 10/26/78. On 11/6/78 memorandum from Donald Hoel states that American Tobacco Co. believes that CTR must be more politically oriented and must find skeptical scientists. The staff at CTR also needed to be more tobacco oriented with a skeptical view. This document pertains not only to the special projects division but also to defendants' intentional manipulation of the CTR as a whole. (Judge H.L. Sarokin, Haines opinion 2/6/92. Haines documents in limine #01347203 et seq.)
