When World War II is HISTORY...
... it ^^ill be much more than a list of dates and unpronounceable place names for tomorrow's students. It will be movies . . . grim, factual, revealing motion pictures of ■what war really is . . . stripped of glamor. And it will be the most powerful argument for lasting peace that's ever entered a classroom.
And when peace comes, the Filmosound Projector, now built only for war service and for other essential purposes according to prevailing government directives, will return to the important task of helping you teach young America.
The Filmosound was chosen by the armed forces because of its simplicity of operation ... its extreme portability ... its ability to take rough treatment . . . AND because it provides brilliant, steady screen images and faithful sound reproduction.
The Filmosound that you will use after Victory will embody refinements developed to enhance each of those necessary characteristics. All we've learned in meeting and surpassing rigid Army and Navy standards will go into designing and building ySwer motion picture equipment for you.
V/e Say This Humbly
No group has contributed more to America's coining Victory . . . with less fanfare . . . than teachers. It's largely their work that built the integrity of character which makes an American soldier self-reliant, sensible, courageous and sure of his ability. Without the principle of free education . . . and the right people to administer it we coiild be less certain of the future.
