American Peace Award
The American Peace Award is awarded to American citizens working to further the cause of world peace.
== The 1924 American Peace Award ==
The American Peace Award was created in 1923 by Edward W. Bok, who believed that the United States Government was not taking initiative to promote peace in the world.〔http://www.nnp.org/nni/Publications/Dutch-American/bok.html〕 $100,000 was to be awarded to the person submitting “the best practicable plan by which the United States may co-operate with other nations for the achievement and preservation of world peace.” 〔“Bok Offers $100,000 for Best Peace Plan: Seeks Workable Method for International Cooperation Against War” Washington Post July 2, 1923〕 The first half of the prize was awarded upon the selection of the plan by a jury, and the remainder upon acceptance by the United States Senate 〔http://www.boktowergardens.org/about/edward-bok〕 or showing “sufficient popular support”.〔“POLITICAL NOTES: 1002nd Night” Time Magazine February 11, 1924〕 The 1924 American Peace Award received plans from thousands of applicants,〔DeBenedetti, Charles. “The $100,000 American Peace Award of 1924.” The Pennsylvania Magazine of History and Biography Vol. 98, No. 2 (Apr., 1974), pp. 224-249〕 and caught the interest of the Senate.〔“Bok Peace Plan Given a Subzero Senate Welcome.” Chicago Daily Tribune Jan. 8, 1924〕〔“Senators Summon Bok on Peace Plan.” New York Times Jan 18, 1924〕〔“Bok’s Winning Plan League Propaganda, Senate Chiefs Aver.” Washington Post Jan. 4, 1924)〕 The prize was awarded in February 1924 〔“To Give Bok Prize Tonight.” New York Times Feb. 4, 1924〕 to Doctor Charles Herbert Levermore, who was secretary of the World Court League, the League of Nations Union, and the New York Peace Society.〔“POLITICAL NOTES: 1002nd Night” Time Magazine February 11, 1924〕 Levermore’s plan suggested the United States adhere to the Permanent Court of International Justice and should extend its cooperation with the League of Nations.〔“Charles Herber Levermore.” Dictionary of American Biography Base Set (American Council of Learned Societies, 1928-1936)〕
