He earned both a bachelor's and a master's degree in political science at the University of Illinois, and a doctorate in political science at Yale University in 1939. He was an early associate of Hubert H. Humphrey, later the Senator and Vice President, whom he assisted in creating Minnesota's Democratic Farmer Labor Party in the 1930's. He taught at the University of Minnesota, where Mr. Humphrey was his student, in the late 1930's and early 1940's. During World War II he served as assistant director for research and analysis of the Office of Strategic Services, the Government's wartime intelligence agency. From there he went to the State Department, where he worked in an identical capacity for eight years.
