“[This book] is unquestionably the most complete and insightful study of the craft (and sometimes the art) of the American foreign correspondent. Just as importantly, it is a superb analysis of the complex 'persona' of the American foreign correspondent. Because of the obvious influence on policy decision-making played by American reporters through their dispatches, it is vital to understand the 'profession' of a foreign correspondent and to understand his or her personal make-up and background; this is accomplished by Pollock in a unique fashion. [This book], in my judgment, should be read carefully not only by editors, publishers, teachers of journalism and journalists themselves, but also by U.S. diplomats and policy-makers.”–Tad Szulc, former foreign correspondent, The New York Times “This book is a groundbreaking and comprehensive analysis of the complex interaction among the press, the government and public opinion in the making of U.S. foreign policy. Journalists are the eyes and ears of our nation abroad. In providing fresh insights into the processes that shape such observers, John Pollock has done a substantial public service.”–James C. Thomson, Jr., former Curator, The Nieman Foundation, Harvard University

CHAPTER LX The Treaty Of Peace And The League Of Nations OUT of the blood and the havoc of the Great War came the noblest fruition of humanitarian thought and effort that the world has ever known. It came in the form of a League of Nations and a Peace Treaty transcending in international importance every compact since the dawn of time. Into it entered the members of the conquered Teutonic Alliance on the one side and on the other side were arrayed the five principal powers with general interests; the United States of America, the British Empire, France, Italy and Japan comprising the Supreme Council, and a Plenary Council composed of representatives of twenty-three powers that had either formally declared war against or were in a state of diplomatic rupture with the Teutonic Alliance. Idealism and materialism fought for mastery in that worldshaking and world-shaping congress of the victor nations. While the civilized world looked on, masters of diplomacy and leaders bearing the aspirations of entire nations waged a battle of philosophies, a conflict more portentous to the future of the world than any struggles upon a blood-drenched field. To it the United States sent its chosen leader, President Woodrow Wilson, and a delegation that fairly matched the great diplomats sent by the European nations. France furnished the President of the great congress in Georges Clemenceau, the French Premier, whose burning patriotism and amazing vigor despite his great age caused him to be known as the Tiger. Premiers Lloyd George of Great Britain, Orlando of Italy and Saionji of Japan rounded out the group that, for the most part, conferred in executive session upon the major problems confronting the League of Nations and the Peace Congress.
