National Parks
Secretary Iekes Announces
California Official
Succeeds Commerer

Secretary of the Interior Ickes
today announced the appointment
of Newton B. Drury of California
as director of the National Park
Service, following receipt of a re-
quest from Director Arno B. Cam

nected with park work in California
since 1919, was described by Mr.

auth )rity on park affairs"
"He has been intimate with the
work of the National Park Service ~
Mr.. Ickes commented, land in his
post as executive head of the Save
the Redwoods League of California
has already been of great assistance
to the Park Service and is known
to many of the Park Service execu-
tives."
Mr.. Ickes sought the services of
Mr.. Drury in 1888, but the latter
stated at that time he felt he could
be of more public service by remain
ing with the park development pro-
gram in California. The Save the
Redwoods League has Offices at the
University of California.

rector of the Park Service in 1893

II have no choice but to accede to

merers letter. ''but I am glad to
know that we will still retain the
benefit of your knowledge and as
slstance in park matters in a re-
sponsible capacity"
The date on which Mr.. Drury
would assume his new duties was
not announced.

Circulation Chiefs
Emphasize Welfare .
Of Newspaper Boys
Many Would Go to War
If U. S. Were Dragged In.
Convention Told
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla, June 49,
Newspaper circulation managers of
the United States were urged today
to take full cognizance of the re-
sponsibility that rests with them in
their employment of hundreds of
thousands of youths.
Don r. Davis of the Birmingham
(Alao News Age-Herald, president
OF the International Circulation
Managers Association, said many of
them would be called to battle if the
United States should go to war.
Under our supervision" he said
yesterday in an address at the asso-
cations annual convention here,
"are thousands of the youths of the
land.
I'VE have responsibility toward
them. Now they are engaged in
peaceful, happy, healthful en-
deavors. Tomorrow, almost literally
some of them may be fighting for
our freedom
Shyrock to Speak Today.
Much of the discussion has been
devoted to the concern of newspa-
pers over the welfare of their news
boys and the fact that they receive
experience and training that bene-
fits them in later years.
James N. Shyrock of Chicago,
managing director of the Audit Bu-
reau of Circulation, was scheduled
as one OF the principal speakers on
today's program.
S. E. Thomason, publisher of the
Chicago Times and the Tampa
(Flao Tribune, will be the principal
speaker at the annual banquet to-
night.
Election of officers and selection
OF 1941 convention city are sched-
uled at the final session Thursday
Circulation Increase Cited.
M. G. Sullivan of Rochester,
N. Y, reported yesterday that a
recent survey by the Rockefeller
Foundation and Princeton University
showed that since the first radio
news broadcast 20 years ago news
paper circulation in the United
States had risen 42.7 per cent while
population had increased approx
mately 24.3 per cent.
The survey. he asserted, seems
to prove that radio listening is not
reducing newspaper reading, but
rather is increasing it, and that
there appears to be less and less
likelihood that radio can ever dis
place reading"
Mr.. Sullivan advised circulation
managers to help their publishers
practice "judicious conservation" of
newsprint to avoid a repetition of
the sharp price rises that occurred
during the World War.

Its Munich correspondent said a
precise plan had been drawn up for
division OF French territory between
German and italian Armies to pre-
vent the French from aiding Britain
any further.
German and Italian plans for an
armistice, he said, likewise will re-
quire France to hand over all her
gold, raw materials and factories for
use in the fight against Britain.
Preliminary conditions for an
armlstice are intended to prevent
the army from going into action
again after truce has been reached
he added.
He listed these economic terms
for France:
To deliver or make available her
gold and credit.
To make available gold holdings
and credits of other enemy states
which are in French hands. The
newspaper interpreted this to in
clude gold and credits belonging to
Poland, Norway, Holland and Bel
gium.
Delivery of all raw materials, from
oil to copper, molybdenum and man
ganese.
Guarantees for immediate re-
sumption of activity, with the send
ing of normal working crews to all
industrial centers which had been
vacated by France.
Guarantees that all economic, in
dustrial, financial and commercial
organizations will be included in an
anti English bloc so long as the war
lasts.
"The conditions cannot be dis
cussed, but will be imposed on
France in the same manner that
1t imposed conditions Oh Germany
at Versailles" II Popolo said.
A government source rspudiated
d Popolo's version.
