...Soviets chose wisely when they delegated Hya Ehrenburg for a mission of good will and report-age in the United States. Ehrenburg is a brilliant pamphleteer and propagandist extraordinaire. Throughout the war his talents, more popular than scholarly, were employed in pouring out some of the most effective anti-Nazi word weapons that the Allies produced anywhere.

...typical of contemporary Soviet journalism that Ehrenburg, the propagandist, spends nearly half of the article of an emotional treatment of the southern problem.

With the same propagandist intent, Russia's Gromyko last week submitted a request for discussion of "the presence of forces of U.N. member states on the territories of non-enemy countries" to U.N.'s General Assembly (scheduled to meet Oct. 23). Gromyko had made the same request in the Security Council last month. The Council had defeated the motion because of U.S. and British opposition; the U.S. had insisted that all foreign troops, including those on former enemy soil (where the Russians have most of their forces) be discussed...

Broadway saw another Ben Hecht opening last week-a propagandist pageant for free Palestine called A Flag Is Born. It swelled to five the current Hecht attractions in Manhattan: a third play, Swan Song (with co-author MacArthur), and two movies (Notorious and The Specter of the Rose...
