Fresh Air Vital
To Every Home

Even in wintertime every house
ought to have a constant supply of
fresh air, according to David G.
O'Connor, Associate Extension Agent
Surprising as it may seem, it's
standard minimum recommendation
that for house occupied by only
one person the dead air should be
expelled and a supply of entirely
fresh air should be drawn into the
house every hour, according to ad-
vice from H. E. Wichers, extension
rural architect at Washington State
College.
The agent said older houses with
leaky walls, windows and doors often
have better supply of fresh air
than newer homes equipped with
moisture barriers in the walls, storm
windows and misunderstanding. And
houses with children have the doors
open oftener than those without
children

FACTS-OUR PRICELESS
WEAPON

When d certain early 18th Cen
tu1y church indoctrinated its clergy
men for mission assignments, the
process was called ''propagandism.
In the hands of the Nazis, Fascists
and Communists 300 years later
propaganda became something un
wholesome only because it practiced
distortion of the truth and, quite
often. outright lying. Our American
counter propaganda set up to
NEE. and conquer the flood of I'M
truths from Moscow. can be OF nc
real value unless it is kept absolutely
truthful.
Uncle Sans efforts to counterfeit
the Moscow manufactured propa-
ganda is largely the job of federal
government agencies. But there is
another battle for mems minds close
at home. On one side are the poll
tico-social planners, and their be
fuddled camp followers, who wish
to make citizens subservient to the
State Naturally. they never admit
it, On the other side are those who
have recognized that the various
phases of the Socialists planned
economy would require giving up
our personal freedom.
On The job
Until recent years the Socialist
had the field almost to themselves
and were making steady headway
perSuading our people we should
adopt legislative proposals making
the citizen more and more the fl
nanCial ward of his government
Increasing millions of Americans
now are getting wise to the fatal
dangers of such a course The best
Job I've observed in American pro
pagandism" in a particular field
is being done today in a large sec
ton OF industry
Our industrial workers have been
the No. target of both the Commu-
mist and Socialist propagandists. For
years nobody called attention to the

half truths or challenged the out
right Misrepresentation. No won
der a great many workers became
confused. In fact, an age-old stra
tegy of the Socialist schemers is to
spread confusion. The decisive wea-
pom against them is truth-facts
Facts infuriate the Socialist fana
tics. Facts convict them. They hate
facts.
Proof Wanted
Many companies now have we'll
organized in-plant educational pro
grams on the American way of life
and free enterprise economics. 1t is
encouraging that most programs are
! conducted with the approval and
| frequently the active help of union
| shop stewards and other union of
ficers. The secret Of their success
is that the facts used are selected
with the most painstaking care
thus they withstand the fierces
attack of the wounded Socialist and
their duped followers.
An official of one big industry
which now has a well established
Americanism program told me that
early in his company's program a
few workers spoke up with the at
titude: "Oh yeah? Can you prove
that" or oh, yeah? So what's be
hind all this?" He said that at first
he and his associates had to scram-
BILE around to get the proof, but
that when they'd produced it, and
had explained the mutally-benefi-
cial motive behind the program the
"skeptics" became enthusiastic stu
dents.
A Challenge
It's a healthy thing in these times
for open minded people to be a
little suspicious of Just anybody's
information, and to want to examine
motives. There is so much misin-
formation being distributed, even
peddled, and certainly in some quar-
tiers motives are suspect. We nigh,
all take our cue from Missouri's
brash challenge, Show met.
Yes in these days of theological
and political debating I should say,
Go ahead; challenge any informa-
ion, declaration or statement no
backed by facts or readily acceptable
logic. On that basis our American
freedom system cannot lose; for in
all recorded history no other system
has done so much for so many. in
any span of time. Do you know any
Socialists who can effectively chal-
lenge this fact?
