  <abstract>Correspondence, oral history interview, subject files, family papers, scrapbooks, printed matter, photographs, and other papers relating to Simpson's career as a diplomat and industrial relations specialist.  Documents his work as a labor and industrial relations expert prior to World War II and to his postwar service as labor attaché in Belgium (1945-1948), Greece (1947-1949), and Mexico (1949-1953); deputy consul general in India (1952-1954); and consul general in Mozambique (1954-1957).  Subjects include the American peace movement during the post-World War I period; the International Labour Organisation; communist penetration of trade unions in western and southern European countries following World War II; portrayal of labor in the American popular, official, industrial, and trade union press (1945-1954); conduct and history of diplomacy; recruitment and training of Foreign Service officers; and the Georgetown University Institute for the Study of Diplomacy.  Family papers concern the genealogy of the Hendree, Simpson, Smith, and Tinsley families.
