The Propaganda Sticks
Cincinnati Enquirer

Cincinnati Enquirer
Visitors to prison camps in the United States
where German prisoners of are held declare that
the great majority of enemy soldiers still con-
vinced that Germany will win Although they have
access to newspapers, magazines and radio and are
otherwise kept informed the progress OF the war,
they were SO sold" on Hters ability that they
cannot be convinced the combat is going against him.
Here food for thought for anyone who believes the
German people be easily won from the Nazi
ideals after the is over.
Strange it may SEEM the very fact that they
have been nourished for years on propaganda and
apparently familiar with propaganda devices,
Strengthens the Germans conviction that the war
news they are receiving contains little of truth.
They would believe the tales they heard before their
capture relative to the bombings of New York than
accept for certain stories which mention
nothing of such attacks. They see in the informa-
ton they receive from American sources the same
elements of untruth which they apparently know
existed in the stuff they fed from Joe Goebbes
office.
In such a situation it must be conceded that
they believe their German propaganda rather
than what they consider American propaganda be-
cause they still love and cherish the concepts Of
Nazism because, wishfully, they continue to think
that their cause will triumph. Such tendency is
natural enough-up to certain point. But when it
persists as stubbornly, in large group of ind-
viduals that in German prison camps 1t is of con-
siderable significance 1t proves to us that years of
education and instruction will be necessary before the
denocraces root out the dangerous PHILOSOPHERS
so firmly established in Germany by man whose
own mind is still warped with the notion that he
and his followers were born to rule the world
