DID YOU KNOW: Antarctic Lodge No. 777 is a real freemason lodge founded by Admiral Richard E. Byrd January 24, 1947 during his Operation Highjump expedition, nicknamed "Order of the Penguin" for members crossing the Antarctic Circle.

CONSEQUENTLY: ONE YEAR LATER on January 27, 1948 - The Smith Mundt Act (the U.S. Information and Educational Exchange Act) was enacted.

are these two events mutually exclusive?
