PROPAGANDA IS
FORUMS TOPIC

Two newspaper men-Terry Pet
tus, editor OF the Washington New
Dealer. official organ Of the Com
monwealth Federation, and +. 7.
Short, member Of The Tacoma
Times discussed news and
propaganda at the meeting Of the
Tacoma Progressive Forum at the
Y. W. c. A. Sunday night.
Pettus opened the discussion. He
argued that too often news is col
ored until IL becomes pure propa-
gsnda designed TO serve special in
terests or purposes.
Cites Aberdeen Case
In support of the argument he
cited what he said were the UNI
warranted press reports concern
ing the raid on the Finnish hall in
Aberdeen and the murder there re-
Gently OF the wife OF Dick Law. la
Dor leader. He said that though the
first reports had been proved I'M
true, the newspapers did nothing
TO correct the wrong impressions
they had given.
Short argued that under the def
nitions given in Webster's diction-
AIRY IL is sometimes extremely diff
ficult to fix the line where news
ends and propaganda begins. He
pointed out that according 10 the
dictionary, the statement by one
mayoralty candidate that he in
tends to put ANTS in the pants" of
another candidate fits both CLASH
fications.
Best and Freest Press
He asserted that newspaper edi-
tors and publishers as a rule make
an honest effort to report the news
as they find 1t and that propagan-
da is not by any means confined
to the socalled capitalist press.
The net result of the good ma
tured discussion was that while
there may be room for improve
ment in specific instances, the
United States has the best and
freest press in the world.

the faculty of the College of Puget
Sound, was moderator.
