Introduction Compact

The stock is right now, oh, $30 3/16. Let me copy the news below:

LONDON, April 3 (Reuters) - B.A.T Industries Chief
Executive Martin Broughton said anti-tobacco
leglislation in the U.S. as currently proposed would
bankrupt tobacco companies there, the Financial Times
reported on Friday.

Broughton told the FT that R.J. Reynolds, part of RJR
Nabisco Holdings Corp (RN - news),would be the first
to go under,followed by BAT's Brown & Williamson and
Philip Morris Cos Inc (MO - news).

Will tobacco companies die one after another? Let's talk
about this problem. Could we focus on the financial side
of the matter, please.
