That advice is particularly worth- while because the United States probably is subjected to a greater amount of diverse propaganda at present than during any other time. Were you in a newspaper office, you would. be enlightened suf- ficjently to determine the play for the sup- port.of the public of the object the writer of any piece of propaganda wishes to ate tain. Millions of dollars are spent in, stamps in sending out “literature” about this or that subject. Every day waste baskets are filled with “immediate release” articles or with booklets that are elaborately pre- pared, If you read any of the articles and do not make it a point to form your own con- } clusion, which ean be done only by think- }ing for yourself, you will be convinced | that there is only gne side to the question discussed, and that is the side of the pro- } Pagandist you have just finished reading. However, in the next mail, you will receive another article on the same sub- ject, and that writer will put forth argu- ments that apparently are just as sound as those advanced by the first writer, It has been said many. a time that »there are two'sides to every question, and it’ would, be ‘well when you are Carried dsbuto-anecalk that truth. | for you may be sure, in almost every stance, his motive is ulterior.
