Excerpt from Adventures in Propaganda, Letters From an Intelligence Officer in France
They were directed first to establish relations With the Propaganda Boards of France, England, and Italy, then to proceed to General Headquar ters, and assemble the machinery for a propaganda drive over the enemy lines during the autumn of 1918. The following winter, the closed season for military offensives, they originally planned to devote to intensive work among the peoples and armies of austria-hungary and to return to their attack on German morale with the Army's promised offensive in the spring of 1919. It was an ambitious programme, one that savored of impudence on the part of so smalland inexperienced a band, but they went like young crusaders, determined to slay dragons and 'overcome evil. Their plans were changed by Foch's sudden swing from defense to attack in the summer of 1918, which called for imme diate activity on the Western Front.
