Kellogg Ambassadorship Signals Republican Strategy
The appointment of former Senator Kellogg of Minnesota as ambassador to London is read as a twofold political move. It signals friendship with the Middle West and rebukes the Farmer Labor faction that helped defeat Kellogg’s bid, while aiming to shore up Republican support in key states and project a Westward diplomatic strength. The piece also notes Kellogg’s qualifications, asserts diplomacy and social standing, and discusses reparations talks with allied nations and the broader postwar conference.
