36. James Edward West (and others) regarded Camp Fire as the sister organization of the Boy Scouts of America. West asserted exclusive BSA rights to the word "scout," and was largely successful in legally preventing other groups from using the term. West failed only with the Girl Scouts of the USA (even after appealing to Baden-Powell who refused to intervene in the dispute). Today, considerable differences prevent the BSA and the GSUSA from pursuing relations beyond cordiality.

93. In summation, Edgar Robinson absorbed previously founded "Scouting" organizations into the Boy Scouts of America, while James West eliminated competition by legally prosecuting later "Scout" groups (failing only with the Girl Scouts of the USA). Later, when West had taken effective control of the BSA, Boyce founded a separate organization, the Lone Scouts of America, but this too was later absorbed into the BSA by West.
