Rep. Brown Says Some
Government Messages on
Air Distorting Truth.
Washington, Oct. 19. (U.R)
Rep. Clarence Brown, R., O., to
duy charged that some radio pro
grams carrying government mes
sages about home front war prob
lems have distorted the truth to
smear congress.
He made the accusation before
the Boren newsprint investigat
ing committee during the ques
tioning of Elmer Davis, director
of the office of war information.
He did not Identify the programs.
"Does your office pass upon
these radio programs conveying
government messages about ra
tioning and other wartime pro
jects?" Brown asked.
"Some of f-em," Davis replied.
Truth Twisted
"On several of these programs
the truth has been twisted delib
erately to smear or besmirch
congress," Brown continued. ,
"Dir your agency pass on
these?".
"You wouldn't think an agen
cy whose life depends upon con
gressional apropriations would
try to smear congress, would
you?" Davis answered.
Ee estimated that at the pres
ent rate of consumption OWI
would use about 18,000 tons of
all kinds of paper a year. News
releases cleared by OWI during
September, he said, totalled
1,140 and consumed 23 tons of
paper.
Of this number, he said, OWI
originated 222 releases, the Of
fice of Price Administration 3zz,
and the war production board
189.
The OWI's overseas branch,
Davis testified, shipping news
print to its foreign outposts, in
eluding Cairo, Algiers and India,
Paper Waste Cited
' Chairman Lyle Boren, D
Okla., questioned Davis about
material sent by the office of
war information to weekly news
papers. He said many country
editors are writing him' protests
against the waste of paper in
sending them stuff which they
throw away."
Davis replied that most letters
to OWI from the editors of small
dailies were complimentary.
"Some of this material sent out
from Washington is an insult to
the Intelligence of these editors,1
Boren volunteered.
Davis testified that sinoe OWI
was created with power to cur
tail government publications, 42,
317,959 copies of releases, pam
phlets, and other publications re
leased annually have been dis
continued.
Davis was interrogated about
reports that 6,000.000 coDlei of
pamphlet entitled "You and the
War" released by the office of
civilian defense never were dis
tributed, and now are In ware
houses "on which the govern
ment is paying storage." Brown
aid 7,000,000 of the pamphlets
were printed, but only 1,000,000
were used. "That is a frightful
waste of paper and showed very
poor judgment on the part of
someone," he said.
Davis said he was not familiar
with the incident.
The committee went Into ex
ecutive session after the conclu
sion of Davis' testimony and will
meet again tomorrow.

THANR9...to the Chinese, who never had much,
but who at least had the guts to stand up to
the Japs for seven long years.
. Thanks... to the Norwegians, who lost their
, country but never' surrendered themselves,
' Thanlouto the Russians, who gave their lives
and homes and burned their factories and fields
to turn, Hitler's dream of conquest into a night
mare of defeat
Thanks to the British, who might have given
up but didn't...to the Yugoslavs, who still fight
In the hills.. .thanks to ail the freedom-loving
people in the world who save us time to gather
our strength, ,
' Make your thanks to all of these really mean
iomething...by giving generously to the National
.War Fund through our own community war fund.
Seventeen war relief agencies have banded to
gether in this great work to make the thanks of
America mean something both abroad and at
home and wherever our men fight on land or sea.
For we owe thanks, too, to. the young men of
America who gave up careers and good jobs to
do the job that has to be done-and to those who
cheerfully saw their lives turned upside down
so that their men. could fight and build ships
and turn out tanks and planes and guns, all day
and all night
Because the National War Fund is combined
with our local united campaign, you are being
asked to give only once, this year, for all the
agencies represented by it' So add up all you
would have given to each, and then double tb
total! There's no better way to show your
gratitude.
