EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph, Secretary of War Newton Diehl Baker (1871-1937) is seen in conversation with General Hugh Lenox Scott (1853-1918), then the Chief of Staff of the United States Army, in 1917. The image, captured by renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, offers a glimpse into the inner workings of the US military during the First World War. Baker, a prominent lawyer and congressman from Ohio, was appointed as Secretary of War by President Woodrow Wilson in 1916. He played a crucial role in mobilizing the US military for the war effort, overseeing the expansion of the army and navy, and implementing draft laws. General Scott, a veteran of the Spanish-American War and the Mexican Border War, had assumed the role of Chief of Staff in 1914. He was responsible for the day-to-day operations of the US Army and played a key role in preparing the military for the First World War. The photograph shows Baker and Scott standing in front of a horse-drawn carriage, dressed in their formal attire. Baker wears a dark suit, striped shirt, and bow tie, while Scott dons a military uniform complete with a hat adorned with a General's star. The image exudes an air of authority and purpose, reflecting the gravity of the situation at hand. The photograph is part of the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, which includes over 150,000 glass negatives and 15,000 prints. The collection is an invaluable resource for historians and researchers, providing insights into American history and culture during the early 20th century. This photograph is a testament to the critical role played by Baker and Scott in preparing the US military for the First World War and highlights the importance of collaboration between political and military leaders during times of crisis.
