Lester D. Mallory

Lester DeWitt Mallory (April 21, 1904–June 21, 1994) was an American diplomat.
Mallory was born in Houlton, Maine. He received a bachelor of science in agriculture in 1927 and a master of science in agriculture degree in 1929 from the University of British Columbia. Mallory earned a Ph.D. in agricultural economics from the University of California, Berkeley in 1935.〔''Biographic Register of the Department of State''〕
The son of Enrique and May Mallory, Mallory spent his early years in Oregon, Alberta, and British Columbia, and attended Naramota and Oak Bay High Schools in British Columbia from 1919 to 1922.〔Copy of biographic sketch submitted to the Farm Credit Administration of Berkeley dated April 6, 1938, in personnel records of Lester D. Mallory at the National Personnel Records Center, St. Louis, Missouri〕 From 1927 to 1928 Mallory was an assistant in horticulture at the University of British Columbia, and in 1929 worked as secretary of the British Columbia Fruit Growers.〔Biography, dated July 1, 1930, in personnel records of Lester D. Mallory at the National Personnel Records Center, St. Louis, Missouri〕
Mallory began working for the United States federal government in 1931, initially for the Department of Agriculture as assistant agricultural commissioner in Marseille, to which position he was appointed June 15, 1931.〔Report on Probationary Appointee, Standard Form No. 17, dated November 14, 1931, in personnel records of Lester D. Mallory at the National Personnel Records Center, St. Louis, Missouri〕 Mallory was selected for this position on the basis of his expertise in analysis of horticultural products.〔Memorandum for the Secretary, dated March 26, 1931, from Nils A. Olsen, Chief, Bureau of Agricultural Economics, in personnel records of Lester D. Mallory at the National Personnel Records Center, St. Louis, Missouri〕
From July 1933 to August 1934 Mallory was assigned to Washington as an associate agricultural economist in the Agricultural Adjustment Administration of USDA, working on farm credit issues.〔〔Application for Employment, Farm Credit Administration of Berkeley, dated April 6, 1938, in personnel records of Lester D. Mallory at the National Personnel Records Center, St. Louis, Missouri〕 In August 1934 he was assigned to Paris as assistant agricultural attaché. Effective June 2, 1938, he was designated acting agricultural attaché, and as of June 1, 1939, he was appointed agricultural attaché at Paris.〔Memorandum for Mr. Roy F. Hendrickson from L.A. Wheeler dated May 3, 1939, in personnel records of Lester D. Mallory at the National Personnel Records Center, St. Louis, Missouri〕
Mallory was evacuated to the United States with the outbreak of World War II in September 1939 and reassigned as the first U.S. agricultural attaché in Mexico City. At that time he was commissioned a Foreign Service Officer in the Department of State, as the Foreign Agricultural Service was abolished and agricultural attachés were transferred from USDA to State in that year.
Mallory subsequently served in liberated Paris, from Christmas Eve 1944 until mid-1945. During his tour of duty in Paris, Mallory was granted permission by the Department of State to marry a foreign national, Eleanor Mercedes Struck y Bulnes, whom he had met in Mexico City.〔This correspondence is stored in Mallory's personnel records of Lester Mallory in the National Archives, National Personnel Records Center Annex, Valmeyer, Illinois〕 He then returned to the U.S., where he was liaison officer between USDA's Office of Foreign Agricultural Relations and the U.S. Department of State. Mallory was assigned to Havana as counselor of embassy (deputy chief of mission) in 1947 and in 1949 to Buenos Aires in the same capacity.〔〔Foreign Service Operations Memorandum dated June 13, 1949, regarding departure from post of Lester D. MALLORY, FSO, in the personnel records of Lester Mallory in the National Archives, National Personnel Records Center Annex, Valmeyer, Illinois〕 On August 23, 1950, President Truman appointed Mallory to the personal rank of Minister.〔Letter to Lester D.

Mallory served as Ambassador to Jordan from 1953 to 1958 and to Guatemala in 1958 and 1959. During his tour of duty in Jordan, on July 20, 1955, Mallory was promoted to the then-highest Foreign Service rank, Career Minister.〔Notification of Personnel Action dated July 20, 1955, "Promotion to Class of Career Minister," personnel records of Lester Mallory in the National Archives, National Personnel Records Center Annex, Valmeyer, Illinois〕 Mallory was a Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Western Hemisphere Affairs in 1960 and retired from the State Department on October 31 of that year.〔Letter from Christian A.

Mallory proposed denying money and supplies to Cuba, decreasing their wages, and bringing about hunger and desperation. Later that year, the Eisenhower administration instituted the embargo.〔http://www.foreignpolicyjournal.com/2010/11/03/the-united-states-annual-self-imposed-humiliation/〕 Mallory then joined the Inter-American Development Bank, working in Washington, D.C., Costa Rica, and Panama, and helped establish the anthropology department at the University of Guadalajara, Mexico. In 1961 the Guatemalan government presented him with the Order of the Quetzal.〔''FAS Letter'', April 1961〕
He lived in Lake Forest, California and died following a heart attack at Saddleback Hospital in Laguna Hills, California. The conference room of the Foreign Agricultural Service's office in the U.S. Embassy in Mexico City is named in his honor. His oral history interview was published by the Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training.
