The American Association of State Highway Officials has a custom of honoring its past presidents with a written testimonial of appreciation. At the annual meeting, held in Miami early in December, Frederic E. Everett, highway commissioner of New Hampshire, paid tribute to Warden of Montana, but a native son of New Hampshire, who was president for the year 1933-34. After narrating briefly some facts of birthplace, education, choice of Montana for residence and newspaper work for profession, also facts about his family and his success as publisher of two papers, the Great Falls Tribune and the MontanaFarmer and Treasurebelt News, Mr. Everett listed the large number of public service organizations, city, state, and national, with which Warden has been actively connected, and then, in behalf of the Association, presented the formal testimonial of "appreciation of the splendidservices rendered to the states of the Unionwhile he was president of this Association.".... "The presidency of this organizationcomes only to those who have renderedsignal service in meeting problems confronting the', development of our highways.We realize that those who help to solvemany public questions are not guided bymonetary considerations, and that it is impossible to estimate the ultimate benefitfrom such labors. These facts only accetituate the value of the services performed. Toone who gave unstintedly of his time andenergy for this nation-wide cause, weheartily give this expression of our confidence and extend to him our best wishesfor continued usefulness and highest attainment."
