.FOUR-M|NUTE MEN
TAKE HEAVIER TASK
Organization Will Hereafter Route
and Receive Distinguished Speak
crs for Big Meetings.

In the interests of economy and ef1i-
cheney. the division of four minute
men of the committee on public in
formation has taken over the work
of the speaking division of the same
committee,
Hitherto, the four minute men have
taken charge of all speaking to ready
made" audiences. in theaters. lodges.
churches, etc. in all parts Of the coun-
try; while the speaking division has
provided special orators for war rail-
lies and patriotic meetings called to-
gether mainly to hear these orators.
In the course their work the four
minute men have built up very COM
plete organiza ton, reaching into al
most every community in the United
States. Alaska, Porto RIGA, Cuba, and
the Philippine Islands.
The organization is now available
for the routing and reception of dis
tinguished orators, insuring also that
the greatest possible number OF
people in each community may profit
from eetr visits by hearing the mes
sages they bring.
The consolidation effects a material
saving in time energy and money.
since the four-minute men machinery
is in constant operation and does not
require reorganization to receive each
distinguished speaker
II is anticipated that many more
communities will be privileged TO see
and hear such groups OF veterans as
the Blue Devils. of France recently
routed through the speaking division.
and also that many more groups or
individual veterans may be sent out rs
