Abstract
Local duality between vector mesons and perturbative QCD in the current propagator supplies expressions for their leptonic widths in terms of the quark masses, the masses of the lowest vector mesons and their first excitations and the QCD parameter Λ. The experimental data are consistent with this physical principle if ϱ′(1260 MeV) exists.
