Dear Sam:
Your memo of 12/11 - Collier County
We agree with the plan, through the TI, to support
the legal attack on the Collier County smoking restriction
law by the Florida Restaurant Association. We assume
the matter will be closely monitored by State Activities

of legal and public relation safeguards.
Sincerely yours,
