The article discusses performing arts. The author expects that entertainers Major de Seversky and Walt Disney know what they are talking about, for lot of people who see "Victory Through Air Power" are going to think they do certainly. When Disney is attending strictly to mechanics and to business, it is good poetry and, barring its overpersuasiveness, good teaching. When, instead, he is being poetic, or cute, or in this case funny, it is neither. Such images as that of the Nazi wheel are vivid and instructive.
