A RARE book in any edition this copy doubly so for being SIGNED AND INSCRIBED BY AUTHOR James E. West the then Chief Scout Executive Boy Scouts of America and Editor "Boys' Life the Boy Scouts Magazine" "To Will H. Hays with esteem and appreciation James E. West". Will H. Hays managed Warren G. Hardings successful campaign for the Presidency of the U.S. and was subsequently appointed Postmaster General. After a year in that position he resigned to become most famously known as the first President of Motion Picture Producers and Distributors of America MPPDA which under his guidance published a blacklist of actors and workers studios should not hire inserted moral clauses into actors' contracts and published an informal list of suggested guidelines for film producers. When the Catholic Church formed its Legion of Decency and threatened nationwide boycotts of movies Hays installed a more formal production code called the Hays Code later simply "The Code" which became the virtual law of Hollywood until the 1960s. It's easy to understand that the Boy Scouts of America would have been a favorite organization of Hays'.
