23 The town of San Leonardo has recently enacted a law
banning smoking in all restaurants within town limits.
Since many smokers who normally dine in San
Leonardo's restaurants will not want to refrain from
smoking during their meals, San Leonardo's restau-
rants will undoubtedly lose many patrons and con-
siderable income.
Which of the following, if true, most helps to
strengthen the argument above?
(A) Most residents of San Leonardo who eat in res-
taurants are not smokers.
(B) Most smokers who dine in the company of non-
smokers are willing to refrain from smoking
during their meals.
(C) If the law banning smoking in restaurants had
not been enacted, it is likely that a more
stringent law banning smoking in all public
places in San Leonardo would have been
enacted instead.
(D) Prior to the enactment of the law banning
smoking in San Leonardo's restaurant, the
town had a law that required most restaurants
to have nonsmoking sections.
(E) None of the other communities adjacent to San
Leonardo, which have restaurants comparable
to those of San Leonardo, has enacted and
enforces any antismoking legislation.
