Propaganda, especially by ra dio, is, Ackerman believes, "mak ing public opinion in this coun try the opinion of militant, or ganized minorities. '"This," he said, "is why public opinion today is neither pure nor above reproach." Observations He offered the visiting jour nalists the wisdom of a once-vigorous correspondent who for five years has slowed his pace enough to make observations behind the news. Other speakers on the pro gram during the day were Paul West and William Lydgate, who read a paper on "Current Trends in Public Opinion," written by Dr. George Gallup, now ill in New York City. West, who is director-general of the Association of National Advertisers, gave a technical ad dress on "The National Adver tiser's Outlook for 1937."
