New U.S. Ambassador
HE new American Ambassador to Britain, J. G. Winant, is a man of wider human interest than one would judge from the long lists of purely official positions. For example, he is a member of the New England Council of the Boy Scouts, and a trustee of the Y.M.C.A. headquarters. He was married less than 20 years ago so his two sons and one daughter are in their ’teens. Mr. Winant served in the American Expeditionary Force in France in the last war, rising from the ranks to the post of Captain, so he knows war at first hand. His interest also includes the American Tuberculosis Association and the National Recreation Association. He was Governor of the State of New Hampshire on three separate occasions before being appointed head of the International Labour Office at Geneva.
