Peyser, president of the District of Columbia Bar Association, was honored by a special reference in the annual report of the Board of Directors of the Association at the conclusion of his year’s term of office, stating that “Major Julius I. Peyser retires as our president with a record for loyalty and usefulness to the general welfare of the Association which is surpassed by none.”
