Edson to award prizes for Washington reporting quality
NEA Service columnist Peter Edson announces $100 prizes for best Washington reporting in 1948. He will judge with four prior Raymond Clapper award recipients and aims to counter the idea that only columnists excel in national coverage. President Truman, at the White House dinner, approved Edson's plan to “distribute the wealth” of prize money.
