Truman despite the public opinion polls, the press and radio, the columnists and commentators. But these powerful channels of communication nearly did fool the American people into abdicating their right to choose of their own free will. Nor is this danger now over. Unless the polls and their press and radio subscribers radically revise their methods, they may well find themselves, not only in elections but on other questions, building up pressure which this time may actually steer the people away from their own free choice. THE PEOPLE KNOW BEST does not aim to discredit the polls and their subscribers. On the contrary, it warns, a cynical attitude toward the mistakes of the polls, press and radio means a cynical attitude toward the value of free speech. And without an alert attitude toward the value and practice of free speech, democracy is impossible. Morris L. Ernst and David Loth don't pretend to know all the answers. But they do claim to know the questions that have to be asked in order to seek the answers. And they provide the American public with the first rounded summary of the facts and discussion of the issues. THE PEOPLE KNOW BEST will undoubtedly be the center of a great controversy concerning not only the Great Illusion of 1948 but its meaning for the future. MORRIS L.
