',Philip L. Graham, president of the Wash-
, ington Post Co., Would have excelled in
whatever field commanded his energy and
? ability; He chose journalism,'and leaves' as
his legacy lin independent newspaper with
?.an international reputation, .an?Jmpressive
_range of achievements in public-service end
a host of memories of a gallant figure. It is
a legacy that will endure.
his associates on this ilea/simper. kr.
Graham 'Was' as much a friend Ss an cm-
'ployer. There Was no detail of Jciurnalisin
he regarded as too trifling to engage his
? sympathetic attention and no person beyond
,reach of his coneern., ,His rangy ,figure and
quicksilver wit were as familiar a part of
our enterprise as the fonts of type in our
composing room. *In .all that he dealt with
at the Washington Post and its related ven-
tures, he was broadly liberal, eminently prac-
tical and endowed with an intuitive grasp
of coming needs. ' '?
. ? ,
. Trained as a lawyer, Mr. Graham served
as law secretary. to both Mr. Justice Frank-
furter and Mr. Justice Reed; he never lost
his concern with law and justice?or a. ca-
pacity for generous anger when either. was
ignored. After rising from private to major
in the Army Air Force, he returned- to the
Capital after the war and gave his full ener-
gies to the Washington Post. The record
speaks for itself.
..In 1946, Mr. Graham became publisher
a newspaper then ranked third in -circula-
tion in Washington and that incurred drain-
-4 lug deficits. In collaboration ? With Eugene
Meyer, Mr. Graham gave a secure foundation
to the Post. -A new plant Was built, the
Times-Herald purchased, and a television
rand radio division, including WTOP in
Washington and WJXT in Jacksonville, was
._formed. The partnership of Mr. Meyer and
Mr. Graham transcended normal business
relations and family ties; there was a fra-
ternal affinity between two persons of corn-
? plementary character whose closeness as-
sured executive continuity when, in 1959,
Mr. Meyer died.
Growth continued in recent years as the
Post expanded its facilities, acquired News-
week and Art News, and -established a news
' service. in -partnership with the Los-Angeles
Times. The range of Mr. Graham's interest
and acquaintanceship was extraordinary, and
though his contribution of signed articles-
_
was infrequent, his suggestions were not.
They gave depth and authority to much that
appeared under the name of others. If the
..
Post today is both prospergus and influen-
tial, a full measure of -credit is owed to
Philip L. Graham. ?
His country and city commanded much of.
his time. Through his father, who was an
. influential State senator in Florida, Mr. Gra-
ham early in life acquired an insight into
the skills of politics. He could combine
moral courage, wit, and tact in dealing with
others, and his ability profited S bewildering
diversity of causes?everything from the Ad-
vertising Council, the United Givers Fund,
the Federal City 'Council, the Committee for
Economic Development, and George Wash-
ington University to? the Communications
Satellite Corp.
Mr. Graham invested the full capacity of
his mind and heart in anything that deeply
moved and interested him. He" was not -a
person given to qualified commitments to
his country, his enterprise, or his friends. '-It
was this quality that precipitated .the illness
that led to his death.
Our sense of loss is total; he was a?rean
neither easily forgotten nor found again..
