Meanwhile, psychological war- fare has been woefully neglected. It has been neglected partly be- cause a Republican Congress slash- ed the funds of the State Depart- ment’s propaganda division; partly because the State Department it- self has lacked resourcefulness and vision Note—Today, ah A-1 man, George Allen, has taken over this divis ion, but he is still short of cash and barely had a chance to get started. g RUSSIAN PEOPLE GFT HOPES UP Most significant reaction to the Molotov note-exchange was the way the Russian people gobbled up the newspapers that morning. The newsstands were cleaned out. The news bulletin boards had more eager spectators than ever. | In other words, peaceful nego- tiations with the United States hot, burning news. People ate it up. In cther words, alse, the Russian people don’t want war. And if you lcok over the devasta- tion of their country, you can readily see why not. However, now that we have slap- ped the Russians down with state- ments that we don't want to talk over our problems, the job of psy- shological warfare becomes all the more important. You can imagine what the Moscow propaganda ma- chine will do with the Truman- Marshall statements discouraging a conferenc with the Russians. They'll say: “We told you so. You see, the Americans don’t want to talk peace. They're only interested in war” COLD WAR IN ITALY Last month several thousand Americans pitched in to send friendly messages to the Italian pecple on the eve of their election. It was the greatest demonstration of “psychological warfare” the world has ever seen Actually “psychological warfare is the wrong term, unless you think in terms of the cold war. But anyway it was a case where Amer cans write several million letters to Italy, sent short-ware radio broadcasts to Italy, got up a spec- jal message signed by prominent citizens to the Italian people. It was a case where the American pecple and the American govern- ment pulled together, with results highly gratifying to all During that election and a Make-Democracy-Live contest has been conducted by short-ware radio to the Italian people, in coopera- since, tion with the World Wide Broad-|present danger. casting Foundation, the Voice of America, and a dozen oF 50 Patrio- | doing to head off this danger can- contri- inot be seen’ even with a micxo-‘ on seope. tic businessmen who have buted prizes.

It maye be a small step, but at least it's a step in the right direction —and better than sitting on our hands. | And if the State Department is| | sitting on its hands because it's hamstrung for propaganda funds, I know a lot of Americans who will gladly contribute or cooperate | in every way possible.

And while they are willing to pay tax- es to build up a big air force and any other rearmament necessary, they also want more done than mere negative defense. They want to see concrete, continuous steps taken to head off war. | One of the surest ways to head ' off war is to show the Russian people that we, the American peo- | ple, aren't what the 14 men in| the Kremlin say we are. l As long as the Kremlin knows | that 180,000,000 Russians will un—“ flinchingly obey the order to march—without Congressional de- | bate, without criticism, and with-| out knowing anything about the issues—then war remains an ever- is i { What the State Department " | to rc(ommond legislative change: of its findings, unless it is prepared Hanford.
