Many years before his death, Green Haywood Hackworth (1883-1973) informed the Library of Congress that he had destroyed most of his papers. Fortunately, a few of his papers were preserved. They span the years 1912-1973, with the bulk of the material concentrated in the period 1944-1945. The collection consists chiefly of printed and near-print Department of State publications, some correspondence, and addresses and articles written by Hackworth and others. The papers are organized into four series: General Correspondence and Related Material, Subject File, Speeches and Writings File, and Miscellany.
The collection highlights Hackworth's career as a legal advisor at the Department of State and a judge of the International Court of Justice. Some of the papers relate to his role in the Bretton Woods Conference, Dumbarton Oaks Conference, the United Nations Conference on International Organization (sometimes referred to as the San Francisco Conference), the International Court of Justice, the Panel on the Future of the International Court of Justice, the United Nations organization, United States treaty developments, the Teheran Conference, the Yalta Voting Formula, Canada and United States treaty agreements, the American Society of International Law, the American Arbitration Association, and Americans United for World Organization.
