PROPOSED STUDY BY LEVY
Abstract
This Philip Morris (PM) memo discusses a proposed research project to determine the addictiveness of nicotine. The writer, PM scientist William L. Dunn, announces that he has given approval for the study to be done, but says if the results prove adverse and show that the results with nicotine "are similar to those gotten with morphine and caffein, we will want to bury it."

Proposed Study by Levy
I have given Carolyn approval to proceed with this study. If she is able to demonstrate, as she anticipates, no withdrawal effects of nicotine, we will want to pursue this avenue with some vigor. If, however, the results with nicotine are similar to those gotten with morphine and caffein, we will want to bury it. Accordingly, there are only two copies of this memo, the one attached and the original, which I have.
