Campaign Opens April 12 to Stamp Out German Propaganda
A wide wartime drive marks April 12 as the opening date for a national campaign against German propaganda tied to the Third Liberty Loan. Led by the Woman's Division, the effort uses schoolhouses to educate the public on America’s entry into the war, presenting plain English explanations of why American blood and treasure are pledged. The rural districts will hear speeches and songs framed to counter misinformation and bolster patriotism.
