{"value"=>"<p>These records, photographs and clippings document the activity and output of the division's personnel engaged in obtaining and placing print and media publicity. These groups issued a continual stream of textual and pictorial material to newspapers across the U.S. and internationally, as well as maintaining a press lounge to host visiting reporters. Director Perley S. Boone's news-oriented approach was eventually deemed counterproductive to Fair goals. Boone's replacement, Leo Casey, instituted measures to achieve faster, more flexible event publicity and to foster greater interdepartmental cooperation.</p>"}
