Kellogg, Frank Billings 

Born Dec. 2, 1856, in Potsdam, N.Y.; died Dec. 21, 1937, in St. Paul, Minn. US statesman; diplomat.

Kellogg was educated as a lawyer. He was a member of the Republican Party. In 1916–23 he was a senator, in 1924 ambassador of the USA to Great Britain, and in 1925–29 secretary of state. He opposed giving diplomatic recognition to the USSR and was one of the initiators of the Pact of Paris of 1928 [Kellogg-Briand Pact], which he hoped to use as a screen for the creation of an anti-Soviet bloc.
