These folders contain correspondence and clippings related to his news reports and the difficulties he encountered with several South Americann governments, American envoys there, and the United States State Department. They also contain correspondence about the interim coverage he and his wife, Florence Dover White, provided for the NYT and Wide World News Photo Service from 1929 to 1932, financial arrangements with them, and White's relations with La Nacion and other Argentinian newspapers. Includes White's letters describing conditions in Argentina, Brazil, Peru, and Uruguay and his reports on German activities and American moves in regard to military bases at the start of World War II, the latter causing protests by the State Department and President Roosevelt and leading to his recall in 1941.</p>"}
