eignty if they ever were to join the
Common Market. Great Bri tain would
have to submerge her wi ll within the
will of the EEC. Policies and decisions
would sometimes be forced on her
which she might not

willing to
tolerate.
Jn spite of this very h igh price, all

officially back British entry into the
Common Market.

Enoch
PoweU and others have recently voiced
serious misgivings regarding Britain's
cntry into the EEC. He warned that,
should Britain enter the Common Mar–
ket, she could find herself forced to
carry out policies which Britons greatly
dislike. Britain would then find herself
"tied to the chariot wheels of the Eu–
ropean policy," said
Mr.
Powell.
Britain Still Knocking!
What was the significance of the
Common Market meetings at The
Hague? Those meetings served to fur–
ther underline British weakness. Sorne
Europeans are happy to see Britain, cap
in hand, on her knees before the Com–
mon Market door.
Such ardent wooing of the Common
Market by Britain only serves to heigh–
ten the world's esteem of the prosperous
Common Market - only brightens the
EEC image. This the Continentals
enjoy, and sorne of them don't mind
seeing "perfidious Albion" standing,
shivering, outside their Common Mar–

O
The
PLAIN TRUTH
February, 1970
HOW
your PLAIN TRUTH sub–
scription has been paid
Many ask, " HOW has my
subscription been prepaid ? WHY
can't I pay for my own? HOW
can you publish a magazine of
such quality without advertising
revenue?"
The answer is both simple and
astonishing. This organization is
doing something that has never
been done before. I t operares in
a way
none ever did before.
The entire worldwide activity
started very small, in Eugene,
Oregon. The editor of this maga–
zine had given a series of lec–
tures, in 1933, on the meaning
and purpose of life, recapturing
the tr ue values, and the Jaws of
success in life. The individual
failures, the collective world
troubles, were shown to be the
natural result of a wrong prin–
cipie which motivares human
society. This world's approach to
life operates on the philosophy
of SELF-centeredness - of get–
ting, taking, acquiring, of envy,
jealousy and hatred.
The Jectures reversed the ap–
proach, showing that the way to
the
wanted
things - peace, con–
tentment,
real
success, enjoyable
and abundan
e
well-being- ts the
way of giving, sharing, helping,
serving, of outgoing concern for
others.
Response was enthusiastic. A
number of Jives made an about–
face.
The manager of r adio station
KORE, and about a dozen others
of very ordinary means, volun–
t eered to contribute regularly
toward getting this knowledge to
more people by radio. For seven
years previously, the editor had
envisioned a monthly magazine
to be named
T
he
PLAIN
TRUTH. Now the way had
opened.
The first week in Januar y,
1934, the WORLD TOMOR–
ROW program started on the
air. February 1, 1934, Volume
1, Number 1 of
The
PLAIN
TRUTH was issued - then a
small, home-made "magazine"
printed on a borrowed mimeo–
graph. Nothing could have made
a more humble start. But re–
sponse was surprising, immediate,
eJectr ic ! It was something
diff er-
ent!
It was something
right! I t
was something
needed!
There was no request for con–
tributions. But a small few con–
tributors joined in the cause
voluntarily!
Gradually, a very few
at a time, listeners and readers
became
volunteer
Co-Workers,
making regular contributions –
most of them small in amount.
They
wa11ted
to bave a part in
expaoding this unique and need–
ed Work. They
gave,
according
to their
ability
to give. As the
number of these regular contr ib–
utors increased, the operation
grew.
Growth seemed slow, but it
was steady and continuous, at
the r ate of approximately 30%
a year . One additional radio
outlet was added - then two,
then more, and more, and more
through the years. In due time
T he
PLAIN TRUTH was prin t–
ed, no longer mimeographed. But
all subscriptions were pre-paid -
made possible by the gradually
increasmg number of volunteer
Co-Workers. W e were proclaim–
ing THE WAY of GIVING,
SERVING. To put a price on our
literature would be inconsistent
with that WAY.
Through the years this same
financia! policy has been rigidly
maintained, never to request
financia! support from the public
- never to put a price on the
priceless
knowledge being dis–
seminated. We BELIEVE in what
we are doing, and
the way
it is
being done! Our growing family
of Co-Workers BELIEVE in it,
aod gladly GIVE of their finan–
cia! incomes, t hat we, with them,
may GIVE these pr ecious success
secrets to an ever-widening num–
ber of readers, hearers, viewers.
The size and scope of this
operation has continued a growth
of between 2So/c and 30% per
year . The operation today
is
huge, having impact on an ap–
proximate
l SO
MILLION people,
worldwide! lt is one of the suc–
cess stories of our time. It has
helped countless thousands to
make a success of
their
lives.
Our happy Co-Workers join in
a sincere THANK YOU for
allowing us to serve you. It has
given
m
lasting pleasure !
