Myron Arms Hofer
Letter from Embassy in Tokyo 1920
<p>1920 December 15 letter from the US Embassy in Tokyo to Philip Hofer at the Delphic Club Harvard from his father Hofer graduated in 1921. Myron Arms Hofer 1892-1963 also a graduate of Harvard began his diplomatic career in 1916 as Private Secretary to the US Minister at Copenhagen promoted to Secretary of Embassy class four and assigned to Tokyo November 18 1919. In this letter he imagines he would soon be assigned to China as he was July 8 1921. He was hoping for a European appointment that would allow his family from Cincinnati to attend Philip's graduation and then travel. This may have happened but Hofer's next diplomatic appointment was as First Secretary of Legation at Montevideo August 9 1924. Philip Hofer 1898-1984 went on to found the Department of Prints and Graphics at Harvard in 1938 with a career as curator and art historian. A prestigious collecting award is in his name. 3 leaves of Hammermill Bond 5 pages of text envelope with Japanese postal markings.</p>

National Academy of Sciences Committee on International Security and Arms Control Policy and Global Affairs
Global Security Engagement: A New Model for Cooperative Threat Reduction
Washington DC: The National Academies Press 2009. Prepublication copy. Trade paperback. Very good. Footnotes. Tables. Figures. References. Acronym List. xiv 132 p. Illustrations. With press release notes laid in with ink notations. A Note on Terminology. Author continues; "Committee on Strengthening and Expanding the Department of Defense Cooperative Threat Reduction Program." The government's first Cooperative Threat Reduction CTR programs were created in 1991 to eliminate the former Soviet Union's nuclear chemical and other weapons and prevent their proliferation. The programs have accomplished a great deal: deactivating thousands of nuclear warheads neutralizing chemical weapons converting weapons facilities for peaceful use and redirecting the work of former weapons scientists and engineers among other efforts. Originally designed to deal with immediate post-Cold War challenges the programs must be expanded to other regions and fundamentally redesigned as an active tool of foreign policy that can address contemporary threats from groups that are that are agile networked and adaptable. As requested by Congress Global Security Engagement proposes how this goal can best be achieved. To meet the magnitude of new security challenges particularly at the nexus of weapons of mass destruction and terrorism Global Security Engagement recommends a new more flexible and responsive model that will draw on a broader range of partners than current programs have. The White House working across the Executive Branch and with Congress must lead this effort. From Wikipedia: "The Cooperative Threat Reduction CTR Program occasionally known as Nunn Lugar based on a 1992 U.S. law sponsored by Senators Sam Nunn and Richard Lugar is an initiative housed within the Defense Threat Reduction Agency DTRA. According to the CTR website "the purpose of the CTR Program is to secure and dismantle weapons of mass destruction and their associated infrastructure in former Soviet Union states." CTR provides funding and expertise for states in the former Soviet Union including Russia Ukraine Georgia Azerbaijan Belarus Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan to decommission nuclear biological and chemical weapon stockpiles as agreed by the Soviet Union under disarmament treaties such as SALT II. Under the scrutiny of American contractors nuclear warheads would be removed from their delivery vehicles then decommissioned or stockpiled at designated sites in Russia. In recent years the CTR program has expanded its mission from WMD at the root source to protecting against WMD "on the move" by enhancing land and maritime border security in the Former Soviet Union."

Global Security Engagement; A New Model for Cooperative Threat Reduction
Washington DC: The National Academies Press 2009. Presumed First Edition First printing. Trade paperback. Very good. xiv 165 1 pages. A Note on Terminology. Footnotes. Boxes. List of Acronyms. H.R. 1585. The government's first Cooperative Threat Reduction CTR programs were created in 1991 to eliminate the former Soviet Union's nuclear chemical and other weapons and prevent their proliferation. The programs have accomplished a great deal: deactivating thousands of nuclear warheads neutralizing chemical weapons converting weapons facilities for peaceful use and redirecting the work of former weapons scientists and engineers among other efforts. The programs must be expanded to other regions and fundamentally redesigned as an active tool of foreign policy that can address contemporary threats from groups that are that are agile networked and adaptable. Global Security Engagement proposes how this goal can best be achieved. To meet the magnitude of new security challenges particularly at the nexus of weapons of mass destruction and terrorism Global Security Engagement recommends a new more flexible and responsive model that will draw on a broader range of partners than current programs have. As the fall of the Soviet Union appeared eminent the United States and their allies began to worry about the concept that the nuclear weapons held in smaller countries by the Soviet Union could fall or would fall into enemy hands. The Cooperative Threat Reduction CTR Program was an initiative housed within the Defense Threat Reduction Agency. The CTR program is better known as the Nunn-Lugar Act based on the Soviet Nuclear Threat Reduction Act of 1991 which was authored and cosponsored by Sens. Sam Nunn and Richard Lugar. According to the CTR website "the purpose of the CTR Program is to secure and dismantle weapons of mass destruction and their associated infrastructure in former Soviet Union states." Another explanation of purpose of the program is "to secure and dismantle weapons of mass destruction in states of the former Soviet Union and beyond". CTR provides funding and expertise for states in the former Soviet Union including Russia Ukraine Georgia Azerbaijan Belarus Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan to decommission nuclear biological and chemical weapon stockpiles as agreed by the Soviet Union under disarmament treaties such as SALT I.

Management and Disposition of Excess Weapons Plutonium; Reactor-related Options
Washington DC: National Academy Press 1995. Presumed First Edition First printing. Trade paperback. Very good. xi 3 418 4 pages. Wraps Footnotes References. Boxes. Tables. Institutional stamp and ink notation on verso page ii. Within the next decade many thousands of U.S. and Russian nuclear weapons are slated to be retired as a result of nuclear arms reduction treaties and unilateral pledges. Hundreds of tons of plutonium and highly enriched uranium will no longer be needed for weapons purposes and will pose urgent challenges to international security. This is the supporting volume to a study by the Committee on International Security and Arms Control which dealt with all phases of the management and disposition of these materials. This technical study concentrates on the option for the disposition of plutonium looking in detail at the different types of reactors in which weapons plutonium could be burned and at the vitrification of plutonium and comparing them using economic security and environmental criteria.

The Committee on International Security and Arms Control CISAC is a standing committee of the National Academy of Sciences. CISAC was created in 1980 to bring the Academy's scientific and technical talent to bear on crucial problems of peace and security. This report was based on an exhaustive reexamination of the issues addressed tin the Committee's 1991 report on The Future of the U.S.-Soviet Nuclear Relationship. It describes the state to which U.S. and Russian nuclear forces and policies have evolved since the Cold War ended the reasons why further evolution is desirable and the shape of a regime of progressive constraints responses to these reasons. It concludes with a discussion of the conditions and means under which in the longer term it could becomes desirable and feasible to prohibit the possession of nuclear weapons altogether.
