Mr. Cassin states that he had nothing to add to his
letter of the 18th December, 1922.
In reply to Mr. Pollock
There is no truth in Mr. Fa) cone's statement as to
the $400.
I have been present before at the destruction of cigarettes, about 50 times. This was the first occasion when there was any change in the number of cases destroyed,
The cases were checked.
I think that Mr. Falcone joined the company in March or April, but I had very little to do with him. The company had destroyed cigarettes before: on one occasion, I think, Mr. Falcone was down.
I knew that 3,000,000 cigarettes were to be destroyed, but I did not know how many cABOR, Some cases contain 20,000 cigarettes and some 50,000. I had not seen the
I did permit until I went down, but only the application. not know that 60 canes were to be destroyed until Mr. Falcone told me, when he came down. I knew at the time that only 30 cases were being destroved, I knew that there were 50,000 cigarettes in each cases,

and 4 p.”.
The British-American Tobacco Company's applications do not usual) y state the amount to be destroyed. They type a
list for me.
I have never had any disagreement with Mr. Falcone.
