The Lone Ranger Peace Patrol Part 1

Description

This film features Clayton Moore, in his Lone Ranger character, speaking about the Peace Patrol, a U.S. Savings Stamp and Bond program he helmed. After an introduction by Moore, the footage follows the Lone Ranger to Washington, D.C. where he is shown as he met the Director of the Savings Bond Division James F. Stiles and later (in photographs) with Vice President Richard Nixon and Postmaster General Arthur Summerfield. Other scenes show the Lone Ranger at the National Institute of Health, the Capitol, and at a Peace Patrol rally at the Washington Monument where he spoke to the crowd and performed gun handling tricks.
