. BEHIND THE SCENES
IN WASHINGTONe

ments are being made to publish
the work in Spanish, Portu-
guese, Swedish and German at
least.
NO WHITE PAPER
Peace AND War" has incor-
rectly been referred to as an
American White Paper, but that
is a misnomer The first edition
had a brown paper cover and
the second maroon. Also, since
neither of these editions has any
documents, the publication isn't
really entitled to be referred to
as an official paper in the
strict Interpretation of diplomat
ic jargon.
The complete text will be the
best source book possible on
American foreign policy in the
dreadful 1914 decade. The
peace and War" introduction
pamphlet just sums it all up in
somewhat official but absolutely
accurate language.
You will look in vain for any
indication of authorship OF
Peace and War" That's inten-
tional. The booklet is a Depart
ment of State publication and
though it was Secretary OF State
Cordell Hulls idea to issue this
introduction separately and he
guided its preparation, credit for
the work is given to the depart
ment as a whole.
AS a matter of fact, practically
every head of every division in
the State Department read proof
and made suggestions or altera-
tons to insure that this would be
a fool proof job, with no chance
of an error and no possibility of
a kick-back from some foreign
propaganda agency.
MAN WHO DID THE WORK
Research, first drafting, edit
ing and final preparation OF
Peace and War" were, how
ever, the work of Carlton Saw
age, one of the younger counsel
ors of the department. He has
been working on Peace and
War" since last spring.
Savage came to Washington in
1925 from Salem, Oregon. He
had been principal Of high
school and secretary and bust
ness manager of the State nor
NAL school, but, filled with the
idealism of the Coolidge era of
peace, he threw it all up and
came to the capital to get any
kind of job he could find to play
even a minor part in maintain
ing that glorious tradition. AS a
protege of Senator Charles L.
McNary, also of Salem, Savage,
in 1927, finally did get a minor
research job in the State De-
partment, and went on from
there.
In the piping times OF peace,
Savage made a special study of
neutrality before the first World
War and EDITED a hree-volume
State Department publication on
that subject. When the present
war broke out In Europe, Saw
age was naturally the historical
authority on u. S. neutrality, so
he was advanced to more inn
portant drafting assignments.
Savage is decidedly the Ore
gon type Of State Department
career man, in distinction to the
Harvard type. And he Is

regular companions when the

Tennessee takes an hour or so of
