Article Abstract:
Doctor Morton Levin of the Roswell Park Memorial Institute in Buffalo, a state cancer research and treatment center, published in 1950 the first major US study definitively linking smoking to lung cancer. As a result cigarette manufacturers responded by engaging in 'tar wars', the advertising campaigns aimed at convincing consumers that their filter cigarettes offered better protection from tar and nicotine than the competition.
