Day Poster #14: Long-Term Economic Development Plans Make Assistance Highly Advanced (Japanese poster distributed in Asia) A dark photograph of a blast-furnace or steelworks structure with a crane bucket and steam. Japanese text says that long-term economic development calls for highly advanced assistance: in a country starting large-scale industrial development, specialist technicians, statisticians, administrators and economists are needed to evaluate plans and avoid other countries' failures, and the UN and its specialised agencies give assistance on request. The tell is glittering-generalities: industrial progress and expert help are presented as an unqualified good. ## Propaganda techniques used in this poster [Glittering generalities](https://propagandaarchive.org/techniques/glittering-generalities/) ## Text on the object Original (Japanese) · read from the image, not independently checked ``` 経済開発の長期計画ともなれば、援助は極めて高度のものとなる。 或る国では、大規模な産業開発が始まつている。そこではあらゆる産業部門の専門技術者、統計技師、公務執行官、経済学者が必要である。こうした国では、その計画を評価してもらい、他国の失敗をくり返さぬように指導してもらうために、専門家が必要である。国際連合及び専門機関は、各種の要請に対して援助を与える。 14 ``` English translation (machine translation by Claude, not verified by a fluent reader) ``` When it comes to long-term plans for economic development, assistance becomes extremely advanced. In a certain country, large-scale industrial development has begun. There, specialist technicians in every branch of industry, statistical engineers, public administrators and economists are needed. In such countries, experts are needed to have their plans evaluated and to be guided so as not to repeat the failures of other countries. The United Nations and its specialised agencies give assistance in response to various requests. 14 ``` [← U.N.
