After  graduating,  Cotton  taught  for  a  year  in  the  English  Depart- 
ment of  Harvard  College,  and  received  his  A.M.  degree  in  1897.  He 
then  entered  the  Harvard  Law  School,  receiving  the  LL.D.  degree 
cmn  latide  in  1900.  He  was  then  admitted  to  the  New  York  Bar, 
and  took  up  general  practice  in  New  York  City. 

In  1907  Cotton  became  a  member  of  the  firm  of  Cravath,  Hender- 
son &  de  Gersdorff,  continuing  that  connection  for  a  year.  He  then 
practiced  alone  until  1910,  when  he  formed  a  partnership  with  the 
late  Senator  Spooner  under  the  firm  name  Spooner  &  Cotton.  In 
1919  he  became  a  member  of  the  firm  of  McAdoo,  Cotton  &  Frank- 
lin, with  former  Secretary  William  Gibbs  McAdoo  the  senior  mem- 
ber of  the  firm.  In  1921  Mr.  McAdoo  moved  to  California,  and 
Cotton  became  senior  member  of  the  firm  of  Cotton  &  Franklin,  of 
which  firm  he  remained  a  member  until  he  became  Under-Secretary 
of  State. 

Cotton's  career  as  a  lawyer  was  brilliant  and  financially  successful, 
and  his  position  at  the  Bar  was  preeminent.  He  was  active  in  semi- 
public  work,  and  before  the  war  he  had  been  counsel  for  the  Alaskan 
Engineering  Commission,  and  for  the  New  York  State  Commission 
on  Workmen's  Compensation.  From  1915  he  was  consulting  counsel 
for  the  Federal  Reserve  Board,  and  continued  in  that  position  until 
his  association  with  the  State  Department  in  1929. 


no  HARVARD  COLLEGE  —  CLASS  1896 

Cotton's  war  service  began  as  counsel  for  the  Emergency  Fleet 
Corporation  under  General  Goethals.  He  resigned  shortly  after  Gen- 
eral Goethals'  resignation.  He  then  joined  the  Food  Administration 
under  President  Hoover,  and  became  chief  of  the  Meat  Division 
with  headquarters  in  Chicago.  In  this  position  his  work  carried  him 
over  a  wide  territory  in  the  United  States  and  abroad.  In  1918  he  be- 
came European  representative  of  the  Federal  Food  Administration. 
He  was  also  a  member  of  the  Interallied  Finance  Council. 

After  the  war  Cotton  returned  to  the  practice  of  the  law,  main- 
taining meanwhile  an  active  interest  in  educational  and  university 
affairs.  He  was  a  trustee  of  the  Public  Education  Association  of 
Antioch  College  and  of  Bennington  College  for  Women.  In  1926 
he  acted  as  chairman  for  New  York  in  the  five  million  dollars  en- 
dowment campaign  for  the  Harvard  Law  School.  His  address  at  the 
dedication  of  the  addition  to  Langdell  Hall  of  the  Harvard  Law 
School,  on  September  25,  1929  (reprinted  33  Harvard  Alumni  Bul- 
letin 780,  March  26,  1931)  will  be  long  remembered. 

On  May  24,  1929,  Cotton  was  appointed  Under-Secretary  of  State 
by  President  Hoover,  which  position  he  held  until  his  death.  He  had 
already  gained  the  regard  of  the  President,  but  the  appointment  is 
reputed  to  have  been  largely  at  the  personal  instance  of  the  Secretary 
of  State.  Cotton  had  been  on  terms  of  intimacy  —  professional,  po- 
litical and  personal  —  with  Secretary  Stimson,  and  the  appointment 
combined  the  President's  desire  to  call  distinguished  citizens  to  im- 
portant posts  with  the  Secretary's  desire  to  magnify  the  position  in 
charge  of  a  man  in  whom  he  reposed  personal  confidence.  The  un- 
written history  of  the  State  Department  bears  the  impress  of  Cot- 
ton's personality  and  effectiveness.  Through  his  hands  passed  every 
paper  destined  for  the  Secretary  of  State,  and  his  activities  covered 
a  wide  field.  He  had  much  to  do  with  the  preparations  for  the 
London  Naval  Conference,  and  during  Mr.  Stimson's  absence  in 
London  he  virtually  conducted  the  State  Department  in  matters  out- 
side the  sphere  of  the  Conference,  and  was  the  voice  of  the  State 
Department  in  this  country  with  respect  to  the  attitude  of  our  gov- 
ernment's delegation  abroad.  In  the  words  of  the  Secretary  of  State, 
he  "  rendered  service  of  literally  inestimable  value  to  the  govern- 
ment," and  "  among  his  fellows  in  the  State  Department  he  won  a 
position  which  was  entirely  unique." 

His  death  followed  a  series  of  operations  which  even  his  vitality 
was  unable  to  withstand.
