Series 1: CORRESPONDENCE, 1890-1929. Arranged alphabetically and chronologically.
Box 33
Folders 2-9 Kahn Foundation for the Foreign Travel of American Teachers, correspondence, trustees' minutes, 1909-1917, 1919, 1921. Charles D. Walcott was a founding trustee of this foundation, created by Albert Kahn, a Paris banker, as a means of advancing the cause of peace and international understanding. The trust was to support such number of American teachers as the trustees might select for a year's travel and observation abroad. The American foundation complemented similar trusts in France, the United Kingdom, Germany, and Italy. It expired, in America, at least, among the wreckage of foreign exchange after World War I.
