Learning To Unmask Propaganda Strip propaganda to its naked shell and it becomes as obvious and undeceiving1 as the spiel of a circus barker. To be successful, it must be disguised as truth. If everyone recognized propaganda Avhen he saw it, this weapon would become impotent, utterly useless. The difficulty diffi-culty is that sometimes its disguise is pretty clever and can be penetrated only by critical analysis.. ' Aimed at breaking down just sucl subtle devices to inculcate in-culcate opinion among the masses is a brief supplemental course now included in the.Cleveland high school curriculum. Other schools in other parts of the country are attacking the problem along similar lines. These are courses which a lot . of people who have long since left school might well study. . High school students are being taught to be particularly . on the alert for seven principal devices, commonly known to propagandists and widely, employed to - influence thought. Briefly, these devices are summarized: 1. Name calling the practice of labeling opposing ideas or persons with names that have notation. For instance, dictator, Red, economic royalist, Big Business. . ' ' 1 " .'. - 2TG littering generalities the use of "virtue words" to describe ideas for which the gandizing. For example, loyalty, right to work, democracy, - liberty, social justice, the American way. 3. Transfer trick of shifting the authority, sanction or symbols of something we the propagandist would have us believe. - Thus, the American flag, symbols of ourreligion and cartoons of Uncle Sam as representing the mass1 of Americans may be superimposed on new ideas to give them dignity and prestige., - 4.
