Abstract: Beginning in 1951, the Headquarters for the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands (TTPI) regularly published a magazine that detailed its work in the region. From 1951 through the first issue of 1956, the magazine was known as the Micronesian Monthly; from the second issue of 1956 through the end of the run in 1980, it was known as the Micronesian Reporter. From 1951 through December 1967, publication cycles varied: For the most part, the magazine was produced monthly, though certain issues cover two or more months. Starting in 1968, the magazine was formally shifted to a quarterly publication cycle, which continued through the first quarter of 1980, when publication ceased.
The November–December 1960 issue centers on the Trust Territory Economic Fair, which brought together exhibits, performances, and displays from all districts.
Reports cover preparations for the fair and presentations of agricultural, educational, and cultural achievements. Additional articles include a double rescue in the Marshalls, a clean-up campaign on Ului Island (Yap District), and reflections titled “My Impression of Washington, D.C.” A story labeled “Big Day on Moen (“Weno”) Island” describes local participation, while coverage of students at the Legislative Forum links youth engagement with political training.
Named individuals include Kunio, noted for his appearance in Waikiki, and district officials featured in economic and legislative activities. Institutions mentioned are the Trust Territory Economic Fair organizing committee, the University of Hawai‘i’s East–West Center, and local agricultural cooperatives across Pohnpei, Kosrae, and Majuro.
