A collection of letters, papers, press-cuttings and memoranda (private and governmental) relating to foreign affairs. The most coherent sections are those relating to institutions and organised groups - the League of Nations Union, the Royal Institute of International Affairs, and the York Trust Europe Study Group. The remainder of the collection is rather diffuse. There are occasional papers and memoranda on Soviet Russia and China, a collection of confidential material relating to the Hague Conference of 1929 and a larger collection on America and its relationships with Europe, deriving mainly from Thomas Jones' friendship with Professor James T. Shotwell. The collection on Germany, which refers both to the period of Appeasement and to that of hostilities, appears to be a residue. Much other material of a similar character may be found scattered throughout the collection, with particular reference to Germany and the U.S.A. See especially classes A, O, P, Q, S, T, W and Z.

Nos 1-169. Correspondence, memoranda and papers relating to the Garton Foundation. The Garton Foundation, based on the fortune of Sir Richard Garton, was organised, before World War I, to promote the study of International Policy. In the later stages of the War and in the immediate post-War period, however, it devoted its attention to internal problems. Its Industrial Memorandum was the root inspiration for the Whitley Councils. In 1921, it turned its attention to educational problems and sponsored a survey of the training of teachers. In 1928, Sir Richard Garton established a Trust to administer a Garton Foundation Scholarship in the Social Sciences. In 1941, it was decided to terminate the Trust and to transfer its funds to the National Institute of Economic and Social Resesarch, which was to provide Garton Research Scholarships under its own auspices. The transfer was effected early in 1942. The papers include (i) papers relating to the survey of teacher training carried out by the Foundation (1-48); and (ii) foundation documents of the Scholarship (53-56). The remainder relate to the adminstration of the scholarship scheme and to the winding-up of the Foundation. NB. The Minute Book and Cash Book of the Scholarship Trust, which are hard-cover ledgers, are stored with the Unbound Series, together with Thomas Jones' notebooks etc. Index: Baldwin, Stanley, Nos 101, 110, 130, 140; Balfour, A.
