AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP; PUBLIC RELATIONS COMMITTEE ACTIVE: EXPANDED PROGRAMS STARTED The American Citizenship Committee of The Iowa State Bar Association has recently re- ported, as mentioned in last month's issue of the News Bulletin, that as of January 1, 1952, more than two hundred schools have 3greed to participate in this joint program which is sponsored by The Iowa State Bar Association and the Iowa State Bar Foundation. It will be recalled that in September of 1950, The Iowa State Bar Association and Foundation, through the American Citizenship Committee, em- barked upon the program of making an award to members of high school graduating classes who have shown outstanding qualities of citizenship and understanding of the American system of government. The Iowa State Bar Foundation has borne the greater part of the expense of the program. The awards are presented by members of the Association in the Association's behalf to those graduates designated by the school authorities. The rules governing the program are as follows: 1. Notice of intention to participate in the award program must be given by the school officials to the member of the American Citizenship Committee of the Iowa State Bar Association representing the judicial district in which the school is located. This notice of intention must be given to the ju- dicial district committee member not later than March 1, 1952. 2. The name of the student nominated for the award must be selected by the school faculty and certified to the judicial district com- mittee member not later than April 1, 1952. 3. The method of selecting the winning student is entirely within the discretion of the fac- ulty of the participating school. 4. One scroll and medal is provided for the graduating class in each participating school. If there are 150 or more in the grad- uating class, two scrolls and two medals are provided. If the graduating class con- tains 250 members, three medals and scrolls are provided, and for each additional 100 graduates contained in the graduating class an additional medal and scroll are provided. 5. Immediately upon receipt of the name of the winners of these awards, the American Citizenship Committee will make arrange- ments to have a member of The Iowa State Bar Association present at the time and place fixed by the school authorities for the presentation. These attorneys will, on be- half of the Iowa State Bar Association, make a few brief remarks. 6. There is no form which need be completed to secure the participation of a high school in this program. All that the principal of the school needs to do is to designate orally, or by letter or post card to his judicial district committee members, the desire of that ,' r -i1 in r rfP Ir f- 7. Upon receipt of the name of the participat- ing school, the committee member will in- form the headquarters office of The Iowa State Bar Association and the chairman of the American Citizenship Committee. It is believed that this program constitutes a very real service in the public interest. If every high school student could be made to understand that the government of the United States belongs to the people and that the Con- stitution of the United States is a contract beween the people and their government, there would be in existence in our Nation a great new force in the support of democracy. The purpose of the American Citizenship award is to keep before high school students and their instructors this one clear idea. All members of the Association are urged to stimulate, whenever possible, in their locality interest and participation in this program by high schools. Already more schools have agreed to partici- pate this year than during all of last year. It is the hope of the committee that 500 schools may be obtained. The chairman of the American Citizenship Committee is William R. Hart of Iowa City. The American Citizenship program is also of great value in the field of public relations. The Committee on Public Relations of the Asoci- ation, Robert B. Throckmorton, Des Moines, Chairman, has expressed keen interest in the program and has advised the headquarters office that it feels this program to be one of the outstanding public relations projects rf the Association. This type of program, Mr. TI rock- morton states, is an example of how lawyers, acting in the public interest, can vastly im- prove their own public relations. The Public Relations Committee of the Asso- ciation has been most active in implementing the Association's basic public relations pro- (Continued on page .1) NOTICE Occasionally copies of the NEWS BUL- LETIN and other correspondence which is mailed out to the membership are returned to the headquarters office, stat- ing that the addressee left no forwarding address. When this happens, it is neces- sary to suspend the addressograph plate of the Individual concerned until a new address is received. It would be very much appreciated if all members of the Association who have an address change will Inform the headquarters office im- mediately so that a new addressograph plate may be obtained and the mailing list kept up to date.
