The worldwide George Washington
Bicentennial Celebration was brought
to an official close Thursday with
Thanksgiving services in the churches
in honor of the Father of His Coun-
try. The United States George Wash
ington Bicentennial Commission re-
ports that Thanksgiving services were
held by the churches of all denomina-
tons in every city in America and in
the large cities abroad.
For the past nine months, since
February %, millions of people in all
corners Of the world have participated
in what was the greatest celebration
of history in honor of a National
hero.
The United States George Wash
ington Bicentennial Commission is
now busily engaged compiling detailed
records of the Celebration. While
these cannot be. available for several
months, the highlights of the Celebra-
ton are here set down.
Active work Of the Commission,
with President Hoover as Chairman
and Congressman Sol Bloom as Asso-
ciate Director, began some two and q
half years ago. Plans were mapped
out for a nationwide and worldwide
celebration and not for a worlds fair
or a geographically centralized event.
Cooperative Bicentennial commits
sions were appointed in every State,
city and practically every town of
America. Besides, committees were
appointed among civic, fraternal and
religious bodies as well as in the
schools.
More than 100000 separate and dis
tinct Bicentennial Commissions and
committees functioned actively during
the Celebration period.
A conservative estimate by the
United States George Washington BIZ
centennial Commission claims that
more than one million different Bicen-
tennial Celebration programs took
place during this nine months period
The United States Commission has
distributed, without charge, more thar
IL million pieces Of literature in
assisting local committees. Historical
pamphlets, plays and pageants, music
educational pamphlets, etc., have
been published and distributed from
the Commissions headquarters in
Washington.
Nationwide educational contests, in
the elementary schools, high schools
and institutions of higher learning
have been conducted by the Commits
sion. More than two million American
boys and girls have participated in
these contests.
The Commission has distributed to
the schools of America more than one
million large-size autographed copies
of the Gilbert Stuart Athenaeum por-
trait of George Washington.
Every library in America received
copy of the Commissions special
flag chart showing all the flags used
in the Revolution. Every Post Office
has received a large poster of Wake
field, Washington's birthplace.
More than one million copies of the
George NJ. Cohan song, Father of the
Land We Love" were distributed. This
song was written for the Commission
by Mr.. Cohan as this personal tribute
to our First President.
