Show between the peoples of the United States and Great Britain. If suspicion can be engendered so that each will suspect the other of holding back, the prospect of Axis success will be greatly improved. Let us remember that Axis radio propaganda propagan-da should be disregarded and that we should also repudiate the efforts of sap-headed and disloyal Americans to create suspicion of our allies. WATCH OUT FOR PROPAGANDA We do not know how many people in this vicinity listen to short-wave stations that send out Axis propaganda, pro-paganda, but it is important that they understand the tactics employed by the enemies of this country. For example, a German broadcast to the United States on January 29th declared that "the British determine Washington's policy. Churchill Church-ill requests, Roosevelt obeys." On February 6, a German broadcast to Britain asserted that "the strategic directions are dictated solely by Washington. Wash-ington. Washington orders, Churchill obeys." Another example, on February 4, a German broadcast to the United States said that "so long as the mothers of the United States are so willing, England Eng-land will fight to the last drop of Iowa blood" and, a few days later, a broadcast to Britain stated, "The British do the fighting while the Americans carry on in the home garrison." We hardly imagine that loyal Americans will be influenced by such propaganda when it comes ! from German radio stations. However, there are Axis agents and foolish Americans spreading the same kind of poison on their own. The greatest break that the Axis could have, at this time, would be the development of bad feeling |
