Extracts from Reports of Christian Science Committees on Publication

Eight hundred and ninety-two reprints of religious articles from The Christian Science Monitor appeared in the press of this state, of which number seven were in foreign languages. This is an increase of one hundred and ninety-eight over last year. One of my Assistants reported that after the editor of a local paper had published a religious reprint from the Monitor, he was called on the telephone by a local politician, not a Christian Scientist. The politician said he had read the article twice, and then remarked, "If you will print more of such things you will get somewhere."

One article from the Sentinel was reprinted in full, credit, of course, being given. A cartoon entitled "The Ventriloquist" taken from the Monitor appeared in eighty-seven papers. This was a new venture.

The Swedish paper Skandia published its own story. It said: "The Christian Science Monitor, one of the world's best newspapers and a power in strife against all unrighteousness, is to build a publishing house for three million dollars. If other churches should issue papers of the same kind, what a strong power for good the church would be. It is a power now; but why be weak when it can be strong?"
