| S. Fargniers, 1921-1933
After the First World War, the Endowment supported several reconstruction projects, including the rebuilding of libraries in Louvain, Reims, and Belgrade. In 1922 the Trustees devoted $150,000 for the construction of a model public square in the French Commune of Fargniers in Aisne. The Aisne was the most devastated Department in France. Fargniers had been leveled completely. Its population of 3,000 before the war had been reduced to 1,000. The Endowment chose Fargniers as the cite for the model public square, which was known as Place Carnegie, in consultation with M. Loucheur, Minister for the Devastated Regions.
The Place was laid out as an open park. The Endowment erected several public buildings around the park: the Mairie (Town Hall), the Postes et Télégraphes, the Bibliothèque de la Ville, the Lavoir et Bains, an Ecole de Filles, and an Ecole de Garçons. On July 9, 1922 Myron T. Herrick, the American Ambassador to France, laid the corner-stone of the Town Hall. By the end of 1924, after much construction and several more opening ceremonies, construction was complete.
The material in this subseries includes correspondence with government officials, architects, and Endowment staff; financial accounts and correspondence; architectural pplans and drawings; photographs of construction progress and cermonies; clippings; meeting minutes of the Comité Fargniers-Reims; and other material, including posters and invitations that advertised the ceremonies held in Fargniers to celebrate the rebuilding of the commune.
