There are some disturbing items in Hoover's backgound. In the early 1900s he worked in China for British firms and later lived a good while in Britain. He lived there in 1914. Some claim he was a British citizen. H.L. Mencken used to call him "Lord Hoover" and others called him Sir Herbert. A 1931 book "The Strange Career of Mr. Hoover Under Two Flags" by John Hamil detailed his background. The intertwining between the U.S., Britain and China continues to this day. George H. W. Bush was special envoy to China and was knighted by Queen Elizabeth while Clinton was a Rhodes Scholar and tied with many Chinese business interests. Beware of Anglophilia and Sinophilia!
