1871-1955. US Democratic politician, born in
Tennessee. He was a member of Congress
1907-33, and, as F D Roosevelt's secretary of
state 1933-44, he opposed German and Japanese
aggression. He was identified with the Good
Neighbour Policy of non-intervention in Latin
America. In his last months of office he
paved the way for a system of collective
security, for which he was called `father' of
the United Nations. He was awarded the Nobel
Prize for Peace 1945.
