Spanning over eight decades, the Packer collection is an interesting, in- depth look at a country through the eyes of an American. ARRANGED CORRESPONDENCE Box 2 A. M. Marquis Co.

THE LABOUR PARTY AND BRITISH INTERVENTION IN GREECE, 1944-45 As the Second World War drew towards a close, the leader of the Labour party, Clement Attlee, was well aware of the meagre and mediocre nature of his party’s representation in the House of Lords. With the Labour leader in the Lords, Lord Addison, he hatched a plan whereby a number of worthy Labour veterans from the Commons would be elevated to the upper house in the 1945 New Years Honours List. The plan, however, was derailed at the last moment. On 19 December Attlee wrote to tell Addison that ‘it is wiser to wait a bit. We don’t want by-elections at the present time with our people in a rather emotional state on Greece – the Com[munist]s so active’.

Such an exercise offers opportunities for delegates to meaningfully explore possibilities for conflict resolution on various issues and their complex, even controversial dimensions – which, we recognize, may be emotionally and intellectually challenging to engage with. As UTMUN seeks to provide an enriching educational experience that facilitates understanding of the real-world implications of issues, our committees’ contents may necessarily involve sensitive or controversial subject matter strictly for academic purposes. We ask for delegates to be respectful, professional, tactful, and diplomatic when engaging with all committee content, representing their assigned country’s or character’s position, communicating with staff and other delegates, and responding to opposing viewpoints. The below content warning is meant to warn you of potentially sensitive or triggering topics that are present in the formal content of this background guide, as well as content that may appear in other aspects of committee (e.g., debate, crisis updates, directives), so that you can either prepare yourself before reading this background guide or opt-out of reading it entirely: Some of the content discussed in this guide and this committee deals with sensitive subject matter.

Within this study, the words “family” and “children” were focused on throughout the forums of Inaugural, State of the Union, Primetime, and Farewell addresses to the nation. Through tracking the prevalence of these terms and the reasons for their usage throughout the collected addresses, it has become clear that incorporating familial terms into presidential rhetoric is a dominant strategy used to engage the nation and connect with American families. 3 The word “family” is both comprehensive and far-reaching. Families today are diverse in nature while significant in purpose. It is because of these qualities that many U.S. presidents highlight the efforts, importance and strengths of the American family in their rhetoric. Throughout presidential discourse, specifically in the ritually formalized State of the Union, Inaugural, and Farewell addresses, along with the more informal and time- specific Primetime addresses, families are highlighted as a strategic means in order to instil a connection between the seemingly isolated president and the ordinary people.

Who can deny that the Geneva conferu1cc, wbich brought to- gether President Eisenhower, Prerniws Bulganin and Fame and Prime Minister Eden, cast a light which pierced the darkness of "the &Id War"?

He added something that is quite new for the Ad- ministration-that any negotiations must involve mutual concessions. British Foreign Minister Harold Maurnillan said jovially when he was back in London: "There sin? gmna be any war."

  • The Yalta Conference, 1945

    The Yalta Conference, 1945

    The Yalta Conference, 1945 The Yalta Conference took place in a Russian resort town in the Crimea from February 4–11, 1945, during World War Two. At Yalta, U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, and Soviet Premier Joseph Stalin made important decisions regarding the future progress of the war and the postwar world. The Allied leaders came to Yalta knowing that an Allied victory in Europe was practically inevitable but less convinced that the Pacific war was nearing an end. Recognizing that a victory over Japan might require a protracted fight, the United States and Great Britain saw a major strategic advantage to Soviet participation in the Pacific theater. At Yalta, Roosevelt and Churchill discussed with Stalin the conditions under which the Soviet Union would enter the war against Japan and all three agreed that, in exchange for potentially crucial Soviet participation in the Pacific theater, the Soviets would be granted a sphere of influence in Manchuria following Japan’s surrender. This included the southern portion of Sakhalin, a lease at Port Arthur (now Lüshunkou), a share in the operation of the Manchurian railroads, and the Kurile Islands. This agreement was the major concrete accomplishment of the Yalta Conference. The Allied leaders also discussed the future of Germany, Eastern Europe and the United Nations. Roosevelt, Churchill, and Stalin agreed not only to include France in the postwar governing of Germany, but also that Germany should assume some, but not all, responsibility for reparations following the war. The Americans and the British generally agreed that future governments of the Eastern European nations bordering the Soviet Union should be “friendly” to the Soviet regime while the Soviets pledged to allow free elections in all territories liberated from Nazi Germany.

C. ABSTRACT The thesis traces the diplomatic history of U. S.- Yugoslav relations from the first United States interest in the Tito-Mihailovic crisis during World War II, until the United States agreed to contribute economic aid to Yugo- slavia in 1949. The periods covered include the gradual movement of Yugoslavia from British sphere to American sphere through American involvement in the Tito-Subasi6 Agreement, the United Nations Relief and Rehabilitation Administration, and the Yalta agreements. Following the end of World War II, diplomatic rela- tions cooled because of the Mihailovic and Stepinac trials, the loss of two American aircraft over Yugoslavia, and the Trieste clashes.
