EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph from the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, three prominent figures of the American military and politics stand together in 1916. At the center, Major General Hugh Lenox Scott, the Adjutant General of the District of Columbia National Guard, wears his full military uniform complete with jodhpurs and a Sam Browne belt. To his left is Colonel William Harvey, the Commanding Officer of the District of Columbia National Guard. Behind Colonel Harvey, Secretary of War Newton D. Baker, dressed in a suit and tie, looks intently at the camera. The trio is surrounded by a group of men in military uniforms, some of whom are identified as George W. Harris, an assistant to Ewing, and Martha Kuntze, an assistant to Baker. This photograph captures a moment of military and political significance during a time of heightened tensions in America. The National Guard was a crucial force in maintaining order during labor disputes, natural disasters, and other crises. The presence of Secretary Baker underscores the importance of the National Guard in the broader context of American military strategy and policy. The image is a testament to the fashion of the era, with General Scott's military uniform reflecting the practicality and functionality demanded by his role, while Secretary Baker's suit and tie represent the formal attire of a high-ranking government official. The photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of American military and political history, and a fascinating glimpse into the past. This photograph was taken by the renowned Harris & Ewing Photographic Studio, which was known for its high-quality glass negatives and its role in documenting American history. The studio's collection is an invaluable resource for historians, researchers, and anyone interested in the visual history of America.
