During the annual meeting of the association from July 30-August 1, 1959 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, the national organization of local government prosecutors and attorneys changed their name from National Association of County and Prosecuting Attorneys to the National District Attorneys' Association. Moreover, Honorable Frank E. Moss, former president of the association, was toastmaster at the banquet held on the evening of August 1, 1959. At that time President J. St. Clair Favrot presented the Furtherance of Justice Award for the year 1959 to Frank S. Hogan, District Attorney of New York County, in the form of a plaque. Meanwhile, Earle Stanley Gardner discussed the history of the Court of Last Resort. Gardner mentioned that because of his involvement with the court he runs into many who state he is interested in the administration of justice simply as a prop in order to sell books. Meanwhile, the program for the year 1959 concentrated on the theme Crime and the Family. Many outstanding personalities from across the nation were presented, under the direction of James H. DeWeese, program chairman of the meeting in Milwaukee.
