Abstract

Stettinius and State

Stone, I. F. | October 9, 1943 issue

add to cart close window

The inner circle at the U.S. State Department suffered a defeat when the U.S. President appointed Edward R. Stettinius Jr., under secretary of state and set up the new Foreign Economic Administration. State Department secretary would have preferred Breckinridge Long or Norman H. Davis as under secretary. Some of his closest departmental advisers had hoped to bring Lend-Lease, the Office of Economic Warfare and Foreign Relief and Rehabilitation directly under State Department control. These agencies were assigned instead to the new FEA under Leo T. Crowley.
