RADIO COMMENTATORS -
SCHOOL FOR SLANDER
Cne of the things that proponents
of Dictatorships notice in our
system of government and one that
always causes them to comment on .
what they believe to be our short
comings, is the use of the Radio
and other methods for dispensing
ideas to the Public along the Prop
aganda line. Thes call attention
to the persons who use these meth
ods to slur, vilify, defame and
stigmatize any one who disagrees
with them. The Ace of the present
crop is Fulton Lewis Jr. This man
has the rawest line of propaganda
that can be- heard on the Air.
Cnly a s'.ort time ago Hr. .Lewis
astounded the phblic v/ith one of
the biggest exposes that has been
aired for many a day. This was the
claim that the Roosevelt Adminis
tration officials had given Atomic j
materials and information.to the
Russians. This man bellowed over
the Radio all about the terrible
things that had been done. He had
to accuse some people who have beer
laid to rest and who had held some j
of the top positions in our govern*]
ment during wartime.
i
But-when the accusations wore in
vestigated the whole thing blew up
like a busted fealloan. LIFE KAGA
ZIFE, v;hich cannot be justly accus-j
ed of being a radical or even a
liberal paper , made a thorough in
vestigation of the facts. Its Ed- S
itor wrote a sharp editorial that
would have burned the hide of any
one except the walrus skin of
Lewis.
looking around for something to
take peoples’ minds off his latest
smeary he started a new campaign
on Co-ops which he thoroughly hates
I'irs^, he stated that Co-ops do not
pay their share of taxes. Then
when this was exploded, he started
on..another slant and stated that
Co-ops do not pay taxes on profits
retained in the Associations for
reserves and Capital replacements.
