LLEGED MN propaganda
"A which has recently been
under the eye Of the investiga-
tors, brings up certain debatable
questions in my mind, AS it has,
no doubt, in yours, the reader.
These are:
Have the movies, being pri-
vately owned. the same right to
editorialize the opinions of the
owners AS have newspapers
Are the movies, outside Of
the plays they put on. really
illustrated propaganda news
papers?
3-Should the news reels
simply portray what the camera
catches or should the shots" be
edtorialized by propaganda
commentators
Personally. as to the rights
of the owners OF motion picture
concerns TO put over propaganda
for their side" ! do not think
there IS any question about an
affirmative stand on that matter.
As to whether il is "ludlcious'
and is playing fair with the
public, that is another question.

Another objection that | have
TO these anti-Nazi films is that
they are not properly balanced

it ever has been associated.
Il is a crusade sponsored by The Detroit Times in
collaboration with the Detroit Board of Education to
bring Detroits full voting strength at the November
election.
To Americans freedom so inherent a right that we
are prone take for granted We prone to forget
that freedom whether of the individual the nation,
cannot with safety be taken for granted at ALL
And we fail entirely realize that the greatest bull
wark of our American freedom is the consistent and
aggressive exercise of our right 10 vote
THIS precious right IS accepted carelessly all the
1 United States.
In Detroit is it shamefuly fSelected
In Detroit about 100000 registered voters
At the primary election last tuesday only l'9Uuu OF
them bothered to visit the polls
That was meager p per cent of the qualified voters
It was mean showing, especially in the face of
recent municipal scandals which found three city council
men guilty Of bribery and in view Of theac that success
sors to these ousted officials were TO be chosen.
The program of the Times and the Board OF Educa-
ton is designed to overcome this civic ethafgy Its
purpose is TO remind parents through their schoolage
children that is their solemn and patriotic duty to vote
at the election in November and at every election.
M EN- and women of eminence in Michigan have vol
wi uneered their aid to this great Public leaders
and educators and clergymen and business and probes
sional assisting enthusiastically
They have recorded short talks the Importance
OF voting The Times has made Phon9gT2phe plates OF
their addresses which will be played throughout the
schools between and November a.
Printed copies them VIII be given to att the school
children take home for their parents to read And the
talks themselves will be augmented by special sessions
conducted by teachers concerning the significance of the
ballot and the untrammeed franchise thereof
HE program is utterly nonpaftisan and non-pohucaE
It's sole object is to impress upon Detroit voters that
it their duty well as their rghiu heritage to vote
at the November election and all elections.
Here is truly childrens crusade altrulstc in char
,cter and lofty in aim.
It's goal is Notwithstanding awake Detroit adults
TO their basic civic responsibility of employing the ballot
and training Detroit children in the tenets OF the Amer
can citizenship that will be theirs
If the crusade succeeds Detroit should automatically
become better city to live in.
The Detroit Times deems it high privilege to par
icipate with the Board of Education, in this patriotic
-rusade of the school children.

GENERAL UPSHUR was once

As a matter Of fact though he
carefully refrains from mention

the exploit in Haiti when Daily
won his second Medal of Honor,
TO such an extent that the eX-
pedtlonary commander. after
narrating the details of an all

SPAB Works
Suddenly.
Arbitrarily
New Bull din g Edic +
Cited as Proof
BY HUGH s. JOHNSON

SUDDEN is the word for SPAB.
~ Cracking down on non-war
construction was clearly in the
cards. 1t was the object of n
major division of the 1918 war
industries board which planned
its work long in advance with
ample notice of its intentions.
The creation of such a unit
and the beginning of such an eff
fort has been long suggested by
Mr.. b. NJ. Baruch and others 10
our present war industries adj
ministration but, through
months of indifference there
was no action or even any init
nation of action.
Then, suddenly and without
warning. the whole civilian
building trades industry is given
a sentence of economic death.
1t seems 10 be becoming a habit.
II is just like the oil administra-
ton overnight decree 10 cut
down 10 per cent on gasoline
Arbitrary is also the word for
SPAB. There are few parallels
of Mr.. Sidney Hillman'S action
in compelling the rejection of
bid for defense housing Of 1919
600 and acceptance of bid "A
per cent higher.
Why? So far as is known
only because Mr.. Hillman
wanted contractor who uses
AFL labor instead Of one (such
as this low bidder who uses Go
labor. Another angle was that
=AEL=ahieeted te=this= contractor
because his houses are in part
prefabriCated on modern mass
production methods.

themselves.
Mr.. Hillman was playing some
kind OF union politics which,
cryptic remark Of John Carmody
suggests. was IN part due TO
possibility of widespread strikes
by ALL in others parts Of the
country against the defense

Mr. Hillman has announced
and 20 has Mr.. Leon Henderson
that Mr. Hillman IS the boss Of
labor policy OF this government
and what he says sticks Very
apparently that is no eXaggera-
