of public speaking to change peo-
ple's minds.

ARISTOTLE, 2300 years ago,
claimed for public speech the pow-
er to change people's minds, to in-
fluence the way that they felt
about matters, Prof. Brigance as-
serted.
"On July 3, 1948, Gallup wrote
an article stating that speech-
making during presidential cam-
paigns had no effect on the de-
cisions of the voting public. In
doing this, he challenged the rec-
ord of history from the time the
Greek city-states were formed,
about 470 B.C.," Prof. Brigance
said.
"Aristotle stated the principles
of all speechmaking when he said,
"Truth is stronger than error, but
error can and will win if good
men neglect their speechmaking."
"Propaganda based on truth
backed up by action, with public
speech used to explain the action,
can mean the difference between
winning and losing a conflict of
any sort-from world-wide to lo-
cal," he said.
