PLAIN
TRUTH
Jan uary
1975
The answer was a reass uri ng
" no. " a nd the source fo r such a bold
answer was bi blica l prophecy.
But th e out lines of prophecy are
pa in ted in large stroke · with very
Iittle fine detail. During the ea rly
1960s. the
P/ain Truth
predicted a
few skirmishes and conft icts which
didn't directly materialize. We ate
crow. But we learned from our mis–
takes. lt has never been our in–
tention to mislead.
When President Johnson esca–
lated the Vietnam conflict in ea rly
1965. the
P/ain Truth
accura tely
foreto ld the outcome:

PARIS CONFERENCE WON'T BRING
REAL PEACE TO VIETNAM
The point of these articles, other
art icles, and rad io / TV broadcasts
by Garner Ted Armstrong during
the Vi e tnam War was that other
areas of conft ict wou ld soon fa r
overshadow the less significan(
Asian conflict. During the decade–
long Vietnam headache. the
Plain
Truth
published hundreds of articles
about Europe, the Middle East. and
the emerging supergiant
(not
Viet–
nam) of the Orient.

SUPERGIANT
Bul a.ll was not international news
in the
Plain Truth.
During th e
1960s, th ree long-standing personal
interes t series highlighted most is–
sues of the
Plain Truth.
There was
the autobiog raphy of the editor,
Herbert W. Armstrong. in instaU–
ment form: the Bible Story in wo rds
and pictures by Basil Wolverton;
and literally dozens of articles on
the theory of evolution by Garn er
Ted Armstrong, Paul Kroll, and
ma ny others.

Approximate ly five years ago, be–
tween 1969 and 197 1, the
P/ain
Truth
expanded its research staff
and facilities large enough to pro–
duce a series of a rticles which accu–
ra tely predicted the major crises of
1975 long before the bulk o f the
world 's press noticed these issues .
Here are a few examples :
