		By all accounts Harry Dexter White was a brilliant international economist and bureaucrat under Secretary of the Treasury Henry Morgenthau in the administration of Franklin Roosevelt.
		Certainly, Whites participation in the network was as an informant, not a strategist or tactician, but he was clearly key in passing information from his own desk, privy if not instrumental to the plans and thinking of Morgenthau and Roosevelt on wartime economic issues, to the Soviets.
		White left few clues and his post-war participation in constructing the new institutions he had so brilliantly planned was cut short when the was caught up in the spy allegations.

		White wrote this in a memo to Secretary of Treasury Morgenthau, who was totally oblivious to what was going on around him.
		And the way the FBI was able to determine that that code name fitted Harry Dexter White was a Soviet agent told them that a Soviet agent handler was going over to Normandy to meet with Eisenhower together with the Secretary of Treasury so it became quite obvious that this was Harry Dexter White.

		Unfortunately, understanding and analysis of White's achievement have always been distracted by his alleged participation in the Soviet spy ring which came together in the United States in the 1930s and unraveled at the end of the 1940s with the Hiss case.
		For years after his death, White was a target of red-baiting by FBI director J. Edgar Hoover and Eisenhower's attorney general Herbert Brownell.
		Sifting through this mountain of evidence, Craig retraces White's rise to power within the Treasury Department and confirms that White was involved in a species of espionage--but also shows that the same evidence contradicts Bentley's charges of policy subversion.

		As we shall see, the record of his oral contributions to the Harris Foundation conference suggests that he was probably familiar with the Harvard Memorandum, and certainly well acquainted with some of the ideas emphasised in it.[3] These considerations constitute strong circumstantial evidence of a Harvard influence on one of the "Chicago Tradition's" earliest documents.
		Thus, the main claim to originality of the Currie, Ellsworth and White Memorandum and the Harris Conference "Recommendations" is that they both, and particularly the first, canvassed the joint and consciously coordinated use of monetary and fiscal measures at a very early stage of the Depression.
		Note that Currie, Ellsworth, and White, who were optimistic that member banks "out of debt and in possession of surplus reserves could be… relied upon to bring about an expansion of deposits," did not foresee the growth in the ratio of reserves to deposits that would continue throughout 1932.

		Mucho menos conocido es, sin embargo, que el más importante de los padres de la criatura, Harry Dexter White, era un comunista convencido, con respecto al cual existen pruebas de que, en los años cuarenta, pasaba información confidencial a miembros del partido comunista norteamericano que, a su vez, la hacían llegar a la Unión Soviética.
		White era un alto funcionario del Tesoro de los Estados Unidos, en la administración Roosevelt, a quien se encargó que diseñara un plan de reforma del sistema monetario internacional, para ser puesto en práctica una vez terminada la Segunda Guerra Mundial.
		White nunca pasó seguramente, en persona, información a los agentes soviéticos; y no fue miembro tampoco del partido comunista.

	John Maynard Keynes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		John Maynard Keynes, Baron Keynes of Tilton, CB (pronounced "canes", IPA /keɪnz/) (June 5, 1883 – April 21, 1946) was a British economist whose ideas, called Keynesian economics, had a major impact on modern economic and political theory as well as on many governments' fiscal policies.
		The Keynes-plan, concerning an international clearing-union argued for a radical system for the management of currencies, involving a world central bank, the Bancor, responsible for a common world unit of currency.
		The USA's greater negotiating strength, however, meant that the final outcomes accorded more closely to the less radical plans of Harry Dexter White.
