Piatt Andrew papers provide a record of the life and work of a prominent American who achieved distinction in a number of fields in the first part of the 20th century. Andrew taught economics at Harvard before being appointed to government office, first as Director of the United States Mint and then as Assistant Secretary of the Treasury. Leaving the Treasury Department, he then acted on his own initiative as the founder and director of the American Field Service, a volunteer ambulance corps that operated with the French army on the battlefields of Europe during World War I. Following service in the United States Army, Andrew was elected to Congress in 1921 and remained a representative from Massachusetts until his death in 1936. All phases of his career in public service are documented in the papers. The Correspondence series in the papers reflects the wide compass of Andrew's professional and personal relationships. There are exchanges of letters with important political figures-among these, Henry Cabot Lodge, Calvin Coolidge, William Howard Taft, Woodrow Wilson, and Theodore and Franklin Roosevelt-as well as academics such as the philosopher William James and the economist Frank William Taussig. There is extensive correspondence with Boston socialite and art collector Isabella Stuart Gardner, and with Andrew's friend and fellow American Field Service volunteer, Henry Davis Sleeper. The series also includes a large quantity of correspondence with members of Andrew's family, including his sister, Helen Andrew Patch, and parents, Abram P. and Helen M. Andrew. These span the time from Andrew's early years as a student in private schools until his later career as a politician, and provide insight into family life and education in this period. They also chart the social progress of a banker's son from Indiana who became part of New England's cultural and political Inventory of the A. Piatt Andrew 2006C26 2 papers establishment. The Speeches and Writings series contains a considerable number of articles and addresses concerning banking and currency issues, as well as many speeches made during the course of his political career. These include numerous campaign speeches, often to Republican audiences, and many talks to veterans at American Legion meetings and Memorial Day gatherings. For the most part, the remainder of the collection is organized chronologically, according to the various stages of Andrew's public career. The Treasury Department file series is comprised of materials pertaining to Andrew's service as Director of the United States Mint and as Assistant Secretary of the Treasury. The Political campaign file series contains correspondence and other documents relating to Andrew's first, unsuccessful campaign for Congress. The American Field Service file series contains correspondence and other documents relating to Andrew's time as head of the volunteer ambulance corps in France. It also includes materials from the American Field Service's postwar activities in providing scholarships for American and French students. The large Congressional file series has an extensive amount of routine correspondence, organized chronologically, as well as a subject file encompassing Andrew's major legislative concerns during his time in Congress. These include the issue of Allied war debts after World War I, especially as they pertained to France, whose debt burden Andrew, a confirmed Francophile, sought to ease, and Prohibition, whose repeal was a goal that Andrew endorsed. The fishing industry, of great importance to Andrew's constituents, and immigration are other topics covered in the subject file. Additionally, the papers contain separate materials pertaining to the Andrew family without reference to A. Piatt Andrew. The Andrew family materials series includes correspondence relating to A. Piatt Andrew's grandfather, Abram Piatt Andrew, Jr., and his father, Abram Piatt Andrew III. There is also correspondence relating to his sister, Helen Andrew Patch, as well as documents pertaining to her involvement in civil defense efforts during World War II and her activities on behalf of the Wendell Willkie presidential campaign in 1940. There are a large number of scrapbooks in the Oversize materials series. These contain clippings that detail Andrew's experiences in the Treasury Department, his time in France with the American Field Service, and his subsequent Congressional career.

Compiled and edited by Eugene G. Hellickson Department Commander 2017 – 2018 Version 1921.1.1 2 THE RED POPPY FOR MEMORIAL DAY “Poppies in the wheat fields and the pleasant hills of France Reddening in the summer breeze that bid them not and dance.” So sang the soldier poet of the A.E.F.F. that blazing summer of 1918 when an unleashed American army was writing the Oureq and Vesle into our history. He sang of the poppies because it was through machinegun raked fields of them that the doughboys were charging; he sang of them because the doughboys were wearing them in their helmets as they roared ahead. Not all of us were along the Oureq and the Vesle that summer, taking German strong points with poppies in our helments, but every American can wear his poppy this Memorial Day, when the poppy, as the offical memorial flower of the American Legion, will blossom in hundreds of thousands of loyal lapels. The American who wears the poppy on Memorial Day is showing that he has not forgotten; for he wears it to remember – “Poppies in the wheat fields; how still beside them lie Scattered forms that stir not when the star shells burst on high; Bently bending o’er them beneath the moon’s soft glance “Poppies in the Wheat fields; how still ransomed hills of France.” The Red Poppy is the Offical Memorial Flower.

To: Advocates for Harvard ROTC Subject: World War I - Harvard alumni veterans Medal of Honor Legion d’Honneur Distinguished Service Order Distinguished Service Cross Navy Cross The President, in the name of Congress, awards the Medal of Honor to the individual who, while as an active member of the US Armed Forces distinguishes himself or herself conspicuously, at the risk of his or her life above and beyond the call of duty, by courage and intrepidity. The act or acts of heroism must have required a risk of life and the individual have displayed personal bravery or self-sacrifice so extraordinary as to set the individual apart from his or her comrades. The 2nd highest US military decorations for valor have a different name and date of origination by service. For the US Army, this award is called the Distinguished Service Cross and was established by the US congress in 1918. The equivalent award for the Navy and US Marine Corps is the Navy Cross, which was first awarded in 1917 and formally approved by the US congress in 1931 (note: the Navy Cross may also be awarded to deserving US Coast Guard personnel during a formal war when the USCG is operating as part of the USN). The Air Force Cross was established by the US congress in 1960 (note: previously deserving personnel in the US Army Aero Squadrons of the Signal Corps (WW I), US Army Air Corps (1920’s to 1947) or US Air Force (1947 to 1960) were awarded the Distinguished Service Cross).

Along her tour, members of the Ameri- can Legion harassed her and interrupted her speeches. At times the interruptions became violent, both toward the crowds her speeches attracted and toward Crouch-Hazlett herself. On sev- eral occasions Legionnaires abducted her. Despite the harass- ment, Crouch-Hazlett continued her tour undaunted and chal- lenged her assailants’ usurpation of her constitutional rights. The controversy between the Iowa American Legion and Ida Crouch-Hazlett took place during a period when Iowans— and Americans as a whole—were struggling to define the rela- tionship between civil liberties and loyalty to the nation.
