(a) The term "Smokey Bear" as used in the regulations in this part means the character "Smokey Bear" originated by the Forest Service of the United States Department of Agriculture in cooperation with the Association of State Foresters and The Advertising Council, or any facsimile thereof, or the name "Smokey Bear," or any name or designation sufficiently similar as to suggest the character "Smokey Bear". (b) The term "Chief" means the Chief of the Forest Service, United States Department of Agriculture, or person designated to act for him. (c) The term "Association of State Foresters" means the national organization of State Foresters. (d) The term "The Advertising Council" is the Advertising Council, Inc., organized under the laws of the State of New York. § 271.2 Use of official campaign materials. Official Cooperative Forest Fire Prevention materials may be used without express approval where such use is solely for the purpose of increasing public information regarding forest fire prevention. § 271.3 Public service use. The Chief may authorize the use of "Smokey Bear" for non-commercial educational purposes, without charge, when such use is essentially as a public service, and will, in his judgment, contribute to public information and education concerning the prevention of forest fires. It is the intention of the regulations in this part that the Chief, in exercising the authorities delegated hereunder, will at all times consider the primary purpose of fostering public information in the prevention of forest fires. All authorities and licenses granted under the regulations in this part shall be subject to abrogation by the Chief at any time he finds that the use involved is injurious to the purpose of forest fire prevention, is offensive to decency or good taste, or for similar reasons in addition to any other limitations and terms contained in the licenses. § 271.8 Consultation with Association of State Foresters and the Advertising Council. These regulations in this part have been issued after consultation with the Association of State Foresters and the Advertising Council. It is the purpose of this change in the regulations to prevent the importation of unauthorized Smokey Bear items manufactured or reproduced outside the United States. It is, therefore, to the benefit of authorized Smokey Bear licensees and to the public that these regulations be made effective at the earliest practicable date. Accordingly, pursuant to the provisions of section 4 of the Administrative Procedure Act (60 Stat. 238), it is found upon good cause that notice and public procedure on this amendment are impracticable, unnecessary, and contrary to the public interest, and good cause is found for making these regulations effective less than thirty days after publication.
