The 8/10/47 issue of the "DW" carried an article entitled
"Press Agent Hoax in Brazil Makes Hero of Wrong Actor," by David Platt.
The article referred to a letter dated 7/14/47 from people in Brazil
to Gary Coopex. whith expressed confidence that he and his comrades in
Hollywood mould tarry on the fight to see that the screen did not become
an instrument of war-mongers and monopolists. The "DW" article claimed
the people had been tricked by press agents and that their letter to
Cooper was wasted as he was not on their side. The people were ddvised
that hereafter instead of writing to a Roosevelt-hater like Cooper, to
speak their minds to such forward-looking democrats as Frank Sinatra
and other individuals.
