In one sense, that only is "true" which is conformable to the actual state of things. In that sense, a statement is "untrue" which does not express things exactly as they are.

Soc. of United States, C.C.A.Utah, 108 F.2d 902, 905; Moulor v. American Life Ins. Co., Ill U.S. 335, 4 S.Ct. 466, 28 L.Ed. 447
