fit August 5, 1959 l Dr. C. Walter Stone, Consultant New Educational Media Department of Health, Education, and Welfare Office of Education Washington 25, D. C. Dear Walter: McLuhan, in view of his new book and various articles, has been inter¬ viewed (in Vancouver, where they tracked him down) by Time , Newsweek , and, earlier, by Toronto newspapers, MacLean's (Canadian magazine), and a number of others« He's insisted on no release until "Washington OK" but I don’t know how much longer we can sit on this thing. I hope you will please understand if stuff begins oozing out on this. But thought I'd better warn you. I assure you I have done all I could to hold back. But it's a tribute to the idea, and the consultant, I think. Regards, hjs:rs Harry J. Skomia Executive Director
