FED PROPAGANDA Davis said that his captors and guards were Chinese Communists. During his enforced stay with them, they made repeated efforts to show how much better life would be for everyone under Communist rule. Many lectures were American-educated Chinese and by other communists. English language communist newspapers were distributed to them and were their only I source of news for a long time, he said.

Davis said that only a few of the captives "fell for" the coirt7 munist propaganda and he figured that those few would change their minds when they were released. "It just went in one ear and out the other," he said. In the same regiment with Davis was another Robertson County colored youth, Cpl. Louis Gilmore of Calvert who was captured two days earlier than Davis. He and Davis were together until Davis' release, the Hearne man said.
