E"HIBITION B"COMMITTEE ON PUBLIC INF ORMATION

The exhibitio n by the committee is designed to show some of the ways in which it isbein g made possible for the public to become famil iar wi th the prin c i l es o p i nv lved in the war , the aims and aspirations of each n ation, its prepara k B H tion s, an d the progress it is ma ing in the attle for umanity.

One of the most eff ective division s of the committee is the Division of Dis tri ution b , which is distributi ng several hundred thousan d copies of the publica tion s of the committee each month , in respon se to re"uests . ut u Many of the publications are sent o entirely free of charge , b t for so me

is m of the more expen sive ones a charge ade , which , however , is far less than m the cost of the publication . The m ost co prehensive of these publications, the " r at P Wa Cyclopedia , which is for sale the booth of the Committee on ublic

W r a . clearly stated , that this Cyclopedia has been prepared

Other han dbooks h ave bee n a n d will be made by other agencies "all will i serve their end , for this war is not to be won by an establ shed doctrine nor by ffi h an o cial theory , but by an enlig tened public opinio n based upon the truth . The facts of history and life are the only arsen al to which Americans need r fi resort i n order t o defen d their cause . The deeper thei study , the rmer becomes
