Abstract

When I was first told, as a boy, how to keep my petty cash accounts, my instructor, in a rash moment, once let me see her own. The largest single item on the debit side stood opposite the initials “G.O.K.” Intrigued, I asked who the mysterious “Mr. K. was”. “No-one”, was the reply, “it stands for “God only knows”. The money is gone – on what I could not tell you. G.O.K. balances the accounts and takes care of my ignorance”.

If is worth noting that by 1930 Kellogg could say, “I believe in consultative pacts…I think it is the duty under the Hague Treaty and the Pact of Paris of any nation party to the Treaty to consult with these countries most interested or which would have the most influence in trying to prevent a conflict…I have no sympathy whatever with a certain public opinion here, though I do not think it is dominant, that the United States should not consult about European affairs. War anywhere in the world necessarily touches us”. Lothian Papers General Correspondence. Kellogg to Philip Kerr (later Lord Lothian), May 15, 1930.
