Archbishop SpeI|man
Praises VaIor and
Value Of Americans
BY the Associated Press

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, July 1.-THE Most
Rev. Francis J. Spellman, Arch
bishop of New York, who has been
visiting American Army and Navy
stations all over the world during
the past nine months, said today:
my admiration for the valor and
the value of my countrymeA whom
I meet and whom I see everywhere
grows almost daily"
The archbishop's words were
transmitted by short wave from
Lourenco Marques, Portuguese East
Africa, and broadcast nationally
from here by N. B. C..
Speaking of the American people,
Archbishop Spellman said:
II observe their mighty accom-
plishments in every part of the
world. note the transformation of
the American people from a peace
loving, peace-exemplifying people
to people still peace-loving but
nevertheless an efficient, hard
fighting people, brave, strong,
righteous minded people who be-
heve that they are waging war for
justice and for freedom for them
selves and for other peoples"
He said his admiration for Amer
leans grew as he saw evidence Of
the quantity and quality of food and
other commodities and supplies that
can across the ocean from the fac
tories and homes of America to our
soldiers, sailors and flying men,"
The archbishop added:
America has time and time again
declared that she wishes no addi-
tional territory. And time and time
again she has declared that she
wishes we'll to all the world. She
also has wished for the world ma
tional, racial, social and economic
stability which must be the crux of
any enduring charter or world order
of peace. Thus is America doing
now and with Gods help she will
so continue
"I believe that Gods power is
above mans power and I believe
that Gods power is necessary to
bring peace to the world. I believe
that through mems sacrifices peace
shall come and may come. But I
know that by the sword alone it
will not come and cannot come. For
this war cannot be won on one
front or on many fronts. 1t must be
won on all fronts if we are to have
a peace such as our soldiers and
,nsy-
in their hopes when they seek to
reconcile themselves for sacrifice
often times decreed."

is being said in their behalf. What
promises are being made. What
statements of national policy are
being disseminated throughout the
world. Ugly rumors are abroad
that much of this short wave
broadcasting is futile and idiotic,
and very inferior to that of other
nations. 1t is said that some of it
is Communist, and some of it Is
Fascist, and that much of it tries
to play European politics, about
which we know nothing, instead of
presenting the American point Of
view.
I'VE certainly do not wish to be
accused later of double crossing
foreign people because we don't carry
out the statements made secretly in
our behalf and without our knowl-
edge by irresponsible Government
employees who are not even Ameri-
cans.
No Claim for Secrecy.
There can be no claim that this
material must be kept secret, for in
its very nature it is being broadcast
to all the world 1t is already in
the hands of all enemy governments
and United Nations governments.
Only in America it seems to be i'm
possible to obtain copies and the
American people are the only people
in the world who do not have access
to it.
Finally, it is important that there
be a complete historical record of~
all features of this propaganda or
ganization. Unless an official rec
ord is required much of it is likely =
to be destroyed. Perhaps some of it
is already destroyed. :
Il have also introduced a resolu- ,
ton to require the filing of OWE
material distributed to the armed.
forces. Conceivably some of this
may require secrecy, and 1 have
therefore provided for that upon
request of the general staffs. hut.
I doubt whether the heads of tire
armed forces are transmitting any
secret orders or instructions to their
soldiers and sailors through the

which we have already seen lead me,
to doubt seriously whether the
soldiers are receiving An impartial
account of the facts dealt with by
the propaganda they receive. Propa-
ganda by any government is
basically dangerous. We have seen
the effects Of its misuse in for

therefore, spending millions of dol
lars today on short-wave propa-
ganda to foreign countries in every
conceivable language and for the
distribution of printed matter
throughout the world. 1t is obvious
to me that the people of the
