dent nnd publisher of the Wash
ington (D.C.) Slar, former presi
dent of the AC and still on lis
board of directors, for his al
most SO years of service to thu
association,
At llio business session pre
ceding the luncheon, W, J. Ha
ley, Joint managing director of
thu Manchester Ciuurdlnn and
the Evening News of Manches
ter, England, described the suc
cessful operations of Hrltlsh
newspapers In wnrtlmo despite
serious shortages of manpower
and newsprint.
The bonrd of directors, In Its
annual report, restated on
behalf of the news cooperative's
membership "Its confidence that
the entire stuff of The Assoc!
nted Press will continue lo mer
it the approval and heartfelt ap
preciation of the citizens of this
our nation at war.
Tho board termed 1042 a yenr
of "extraordinary success" de
spite difficulties of ull kinds,
and directed attention to tho re
port of General Munager Coop
er In which he paid striking
tribute to the magnificent work
of tho staff under his direction
in meeting the extraordinary
problems of war tlrno reporting
In all its elements and to the
brilliant work of correspondents
unsigned to buttle areas."
"In honoring our own Asso
elated Press dead or missing
since Penrl Harbor," Cooper
said, "we should, as they would
have us do, ccpially honor all:
"Jack Singer of the Interna
tional News service:
"Eugene Pctrov of the North
American Newspaper alliance;
"William MeDntigiill and Hur
ry Percy of the United Press;
"Ben Miller of the Baltimore
Evening Sun;
"Hon Robertson Jr., of the
New York Herald Tribune;
"Byron Durnton nnd Robert
P. Post of the Now York Times;
"Mrs. Lea Burdctt of PM;
"Melville Jucoby of Time nnd
Life;
"Harry Crockett and D. Witt
Hancock of Tho Associated
Press;
"Don Bell of the National
Brondcusting company." , , .
"I maintain there can well
enough be some newspaper
statesmanship exerted in the
next peace conference," Coop
er declared. "A free press is
but one of the things it should
demand. It should ulso lake us
its premise tho fact that sup
pression and control of the press
by governments constitute a
prime cause of wars. This is
easy proof.
"Milltunt action looking to
ward what wo have and menu
to keep here could gain not
only renewed security for the
status of the press nt home but
new respect a I) road. Even if it
could not Rain any perceptible
change in freedom of the press
abroad, could at least beassort
Ivn In one matter that nffects
the press internationally ns well
ns domestically.
"Thut ono mutter Is to civ
denvor to gain 'guarantees that,
first, news nt its source shall
bo freely available to nil every
w h c r c; and, second, that no
country shall give preferential
transmission facilities to its own
press as against tho press of any
other country. This means thai
correspondents of individual
newspapers and press assocln
Hons everywhere should hnve
direct nnd equal access to tho
news of all governments ond
with equal facilities of trans
mission thereof to their own

Logger at Harvard . . .
Hols Holbrook is the one log
ger with bark on who was ever
invited to lecture at Harvard
university. More, Hola was so
honored thrco years in succes
sion. He hit that Intellectual
Jackpot three times without
benefit of eoliego education. In
his rugged schooling he had
graduated, cum luudc, from the
war in Franco as a top sergeant
of the Field Artillery; then
from tho University of Log
ging with the degrees of River
Pig, Choker Setter and Ink
SI Inner. With such equipment,
Hols hud set forth on a career
of historical writing.
A number of us hnve come
out of the woods to write piec
es for the papers and story
books, But Holbrook is the lone
historian of eminence the woods
huvo produced. It Is genuine
eminence. Harvard is the au
thority, and thcro is none high
er. And Harvard is bucked up
by the top editors and literary
critics of the cast. Hols, for ex
ample, hus for yenrs been a
regular contributor of reviews
on books in his historical field
to the weekly book section of
the New York Hcrnld-Trlbunc.
Every full he is called cast on
lecture tours and for appear

Now, when Nature has awak

Hie new season's burgeoning.
Now, when every hlllsldo and
every garden Is a renewed proof
ot that eternal life which Christ
died nnd rose again to prove to
us.
Even in this critical time, 11
is impossible to celebrate Easter
in less than e spirit of joyous
gratitude, a mood of surging
thankfulness. And oulwnrdly, ns
men have done from time im

joy by putting on gay, new

Easter is a time for deep nnd
reverent spiritual rejoicing. For

It Is the most glorious and

Hook puts it, both KGW and

In the curly spring of 1940
the publicity bullcocks of for
estry and lumbering decided to
have another go at forest-fire
prevention by means of an ed
ucational campaign. The for
est service, the state and pri
vate fire-fighting organizations,
and the lumbermen had been
ut this for many years, but
without effective public I re

the man-caused forest fires
blazed.

Clarence Martin at Olympla. A
conventional publicity c a m
paign program was discussed,
and an old slogan, "Keep Wash
ington Green," was revived.
The governor's concern was on
the caliber and repute of the
campaign director. He settled
instantly for Holbrook, when
informed that Hols was a com
bination of old logger and Har
vard lecturer.
Here are the figures on
Washington forest fires for the
three years of KGW: 2000 in
1040; in 1041 the figure was re
duced to 1582; in 1042, to 842.
Words Are Weapons . . .
Holbrook wrote fire-warning
stories for the newspapers
which were In newspaper lan
guage. His production for radio
was professionally tops. And
his tours among forest com
munities had effect because he
talked the language of the
woods. It was that simple
work unadorned and unpreten
tious, striking a common chord
of response everywhere, doing
a plain job in a plain way,
without ballyhoo and bushwah.
The KGW success inspired a
Keep Oregon Green program,
which rose to a high peak of re
sults in forest-fire prevention
last year.
Hols has completed another
history book. This one is on
American forest fires. It should
be his best book to date. Years
of hard digging for facts have
gone into it, along with his gen
eral knowledge of the plain
history of our land and people,
his love of green forest coun
try and hatred of tree burn
ing, and his rare gift for writ
ing which is rugged and vital
and scholarly to boot.
Hols could be a Harvard fa
