« During WWI, Bernays was part of the U.S. Committee on Public Information, a powerful orginisation that advertised and sold the war to the American people. The CPI was the blueprint in which marketing strategies for future wars would be based upon. » Bernays launched a propaganda myth known as "The Corpse Factory" accusing the Germans of turning dead soldiers into fats and soap.
Almost 30 yrs later, the Nurnberg tribunals happened to be organized by Bernays' brother-in-law, Murray Bernays.

Quote from 1946 Annual Report of the Rockefeller Foundation:
"The Committee on Studies of the Council on Foreign Relations is concerned that the debunking journalistic campaign following World War I should not be repeated and believes that the American public deserves a clear competent statement of our basic aims and activities during the second World War."

The corpse factory (Kadaververwertungsanstalt) story of 1917 featured corpses that "passed through a bath". In 1945, the SHAEF made a propagandafilm with a very famous scene, that portrayed showers as "gas showers" in "death factory" Dachau. The film was made by Alfred Hitchcock under the guidance of mediatycoon Sydney Bernstein, head of the Psychological Warfare Division of the forces of democracy. As defined by Bernstein, the object was to shake and humiliate the Germans.

Shortly before his death Bernstein explained that Hitchcock's contribution was to help shape the way the material was presented. Hitchcock's concern was that "We should try to prevent people thinking that any of this was faked." Hitchcock took another little secret to his grave. His film 'Psycho', with that other famous shower scene, was released on Jan. 27 1960 -- exactly 15 years after the Russians liberated Auschwitz!

This cigarette thing seems insignificant, but you gotta remember this right around womens sufferage, before 1919 women couldn't vote... so the freedom thing is real at the time.

Well... sure... but you said the freedom thing was real at that time.
Women that time were trying to achieve freedom by smoking cigars challenging men's power
