Vermont Senator Warren Austin shaped by discipline and ethics
Warren Austin’s career in Vermont courts, the U.S. Senate and the United Nations is traced to a childhood lesson on finishing what one starts. A grandfather’s warning spurred a self discipline that guided his internationalism, inspired by Lord Haldane and a Montreal bar association talk. He called himself an apple knocker at his Vermont home and tended a village orchard.
