Freedom OF The
Mind
By Ruth TAYLOR

Herr Goebbels put across the
most successful propaganda
campaign in history on the the
ory that if you shut off all but
one avenue of news and then
repeated a lie often enough and
loud enough, it would be be-
lie red. Unfortunately for the
world, his evaluation of the
worlds mentality was correct.
He would have succeeded in his,
the greatest conspiracy of all
time, had there not been in the
free countries, a free people bold
nough to ask for proof and to
show that he lied.
Here in America we believe in
the freedom o fthe self-governd
"a thinking citiznry. There is
no need for the Gestapo in
America. We as enlightened citi-
zenS will do our thinking, curb
ing our prejudices as we do our
tongues, because we believe in
decency and in the responsibility
of free thought.

I have been standing almost
alone for years for the devel-
opnent Of American culture in
singing. I believe that Ameri-
cans should sing the American
language according to the &C
cepted pronunciation Of Amer
lean words, and sing the words
so that the audience knows
what your song is about. 1
heard a girl sing "parfect die
for perfect day" in Carrie
Jacobs Bonds song, and 1
have never liked the song
since. If you want me to enjoy
your song sing "hand" and not
"hawnd," and let the Italians
and Germans and all other ma
tionalities keep their pronounc-
ing of vowels. If it is easier to
sing vowels as other nations
sing them, there is your chal-
lenge. Make our language sing
able, and don't surrender to
the easy way which leaves
your audience wondering what
1t is all about. This country
has aped, and is still aping
European culture in almost all
walks of life; but let us blaze
the trail of American culture
in singing.

De GaulIe Accepts

Invitation 10 London

Charles de Gaulle's Office announced
today that the French National

in principle" a British invitation to

today that Gen. Charles de Gaulle

Mr.. Churchill told the House of

invited Gen. De Gaulle to pay us
a visit over here in the near fr-
ture" and indicated Gen. De Gaulle
had accepted. He gave no hint,
however, of how soon the French
leader might be expected In London.
Mr.. Churchill's explanation of tn.
reason for withholding recognition
from the French Committee of Ma
tional Liberation drew criticism in
otherwise generally favorable COM
ment on his foreign policy in morn
ing papers today.
Apparently the inhibitions of
President Roosevelt and Mr.. Hull
dictate policy of coldness which
is unjustified by the evidence and
