Stettinius to lead in new foreign policy era
Christian Science Monitor notes Ed ward Stettinius Jr. faces a vast role as Secretary of State with Senate approval assumed. He brings leadership, administrative harmony, and public relations skill from General Motors, United States Steel, and Lend-Lease, but lacks deep foreign capitals ties. The two main tasks are US participation in world organization and shaping policy amid social revolutions, with isolationist resistance and a need for liberal, democratic leadership in the State Department.
