Herbert Hoover
Herbert Hoover was in London at the beginning of World War I. He volunteered to direct the exodus of American tourists from Europe and then to head the Commission for Relief in Belgium. That position brought him public attention as the "great humanitarian." The commission fed 10 million people during the war and left funds for Belgian postwar reconstruction.

In 1921 he was appointed secretary of commerce in the Harding administration. He was concerned with applying rational principles in order to end conflict between labor and business. However, he was preoccupied largely with trying to bring the benefits of cooperative action to business owners and farmers without destroying individual initiative. His views and policies were popular in the late 1920's.
