I’m older than dirt and I do remember when they were given as premium inducements to shop in certain stores.
That said, it causes me to wonder if F&W was operated by the progressives of the period — when few were aware of their agenda — and were acting as the change agents of today who have penetrated the government schools, obviating the need to control the editorial content of third tier reference books.
That said, the message of my post remains: We MUST be aware of these so-called fringe groups and the very real danger they pose to the system — albeit IMPERFECT — that has provided more wealth and liberty to more people than any other on earth.
Hey there, ‘old as dirt’ Dude ! You just gotta lighten up some.
Besides the simple fact you’re preachin’ to the choir, here ‘bouts, you seem WAY too intense for the sermon of the day.
It is remarkably obtuse to opine that an article written in 1931 is somehow symptomatic of a systematic program of revisionism concerning events which seem to have actually occurred somewhat later in time.
Whether a similar speculation is helpful in monitoring current events and the reportage thereto appertaining seems to be, self-evidently, ALSO something of a ‘stretch’.
Maybe you want to wind down the intensity of your speculations and focus on one or more ‘pertinent’ CURRENT topics and how they are being covered.
That might also tend to discourage those who are inclined to speculate on the density of tin or aluminum in your headgear ...

For those of us older than dirt, remember green stamps? They could be saved in small booklets then turned in for things like encyclopedias or what my mom called “gas station china.”
