The State Department
Janeway, Eliot | October 28, 1939 issue

add to cart   close window

This article literally appraise the book "Inside the Department of State," by Bertram D. Hulen. A British philosopher named Stirling who published an involved work entitled "The Secret of Hegel" was congratulated by a critic because he had kept Hegel's secret so well. Arid so it is with Mr. Hulen and his provocative, if not stormy, subject, the State Department, which he has covered during two tumultuous decades, first for the Associated Press and since 1926 for the New York Times. In justice to Mr. Hulen it should be conceded that his purpose was quite evidently not to give an account of the course of the United States in international high politics between the last war and the present one.
