Roy Wilson Howard Papers 4 Scope and Content Note The papers of Roy Wilson Howard (1883-1964) span the years 1911-1966, with the bulk of the items concentrated in the period after 1920. The collection consists of family and executive correspondence, early letters of the United Press Associations, the office files of Howard's son and business successor, Jack R. Howard, for 1960-1961, and miscellaneous financial and printed matter concerning Roy Howard's career in the newspaper business. The collection is organized in five series: Family Correspondence ; United Press Association, Early Files ; Executive Correspondence ; Jack R. Howard Papers ; and Miscellany . By far the major portion of the papers consists of Executive Correspondence . Organized largely as received by the Library, the series includes letters, reports, clippings, and related material that Howard sent and received as head of the United Press and the Scripps-Howard newspaper chain. New York was Howard's residence, office, and the site of his organization's flagship enterprise, the World-Telegram & Sun, and much of the series centers on the files from this central location. Present as well, however, are extensive records for each Scripps-Howard property. They cover related services such as the Scripps-Howard News Alliance (which in keeping with the geographical arrangement scheme is located under its Washington, D.C., designation), plus daily papers ranging from the Akron Times to the Youngstown Telegram. In addition to documenting the work of the correspondents who wrote for Howard, the files reveal the internal dynamics of a vast newspaper concern. They feature Scripps-Howard management in its various business and editorial levels, treat the breadth and detail of local as well as national and international issues, and give voluminous private and public reaction to nearly every aspect of the news media that Howard directed. The genesis of the collection is in the decade before World War I when Howard became New York manager of a fledgling news service organization. A native Ohioan, Howard had grown up in Indianapolis, Indiana, where he entered journalism as a newsboy and rose to become sports editor of the Indianapolis News. In 1907, Howard was named by E. W. Scripps to the post of general manager of the newly consolidated United Press Associations. Having climbed to the presidency and then chairmanship of the board of the reorganized United Press, Howard in 1921 become chairman and business director of the Newspaper Enterprise Association and the Scripps-McRae (later Scripps-Howard) newspaper chain. As a reporter, he obtained exclusive interviews with leading European heads of state during World War I, and in the same period he worked to introduce and extend the United Press system abroad. The task involved direct competition with the Associated Press, already powerful in the United States, and also entailed the difficulties of dealing with the information flow of official news services connected to foreign governments. Evidence of Howard's ability to make as well as report news can be found throughout the collection. In the 1930s he broke barriers by getting audiences with Emperor Hirohito of Japan and Joseph Stalin. These stories made headlines outside the Scripps-Howard orbit, while on another, earlier occasion, his cablegrams from France convinced editors across the United States that World War I had ended on November 7, 1918, several days before its occurrence. Information on these and other episodes is available in relevant chronological or geographical files, with the armistice controversy being highlighted in the United Press Associations file for the war period.
