358:"Smith also served as a confidential clerk to an assistant secretary, assistant chief of the Women's Division of the United States Employment Service, and chief of the Information Division of the United States Training and Dilution Service" - this threw me a little. On first reading, I thought she was, first, confidential clerk to an assistant secretary, second, assistant chief (herself), and third, chief of the Information division (herself). But I think it actually means she served as confidential clerk to all three post-holders, i.e. she didn't hold the second and third roles herself. Perhaps - "Smith also served as confidential clerk, firstly to an assistant secretary, then to the assistant chief of the Women's Division of the United States Employment Service, and lastly to the chief of the Information Division of the United States Training and Dilution Service"?
488:"although they did not identify themselves as lesbians" - given the times, that isn't surprising, but the sources seem pretty clear that they were. Epstein writes of "an intense emotional, if not sexual, partnership", and Stanoff describes her as "a dedicated friend and lover". There is also the intriguing reference to "censored love letters" written to her by Hinder. I wonder if they self-censored, or whether it was done by someone else subsequently? You don't have a Footnotes section, but I might have a footnote on the censored letters? Also, is there a suitable Category? doesn't work, as she was a lawyer and diplomat. ?

bosses' sexism: but
Stanoff has "a product or facilitator of American imperialism" (albeit qualified); Epstein has "perpetuated the imperialist project. As Trade Commissioner, she implemented trade policy in lucrative China that helped to economically enrich the USA. Likewise, as an international feminist, Smith injected Western superiority to the international feminist sphere"; and Paddle has "the colonising attitudes of Western feminists". Where I think this could be covered is in a paragraph on the

440:- Second, I wonder if a sentence or two on Smith's efforts on behalf of Jantzen's knitted swimwear might be interesting. Epstein covers it extensively, and it is an interesting example of the lengths Smith went to in furtherance of American trade. I agree it's not as important as the work around roads/radio that you do highlight, but I think it might be worth a mention.

Retirement - assuming she was not working until her death, do any of the sources indicate the year/date of her retirement? I can't see it. Was it when they moved to Sydney in 1957? (Epstein|p=715) I'm guessing her representative role at the
International Federation of Women Lawyers wasn't a full-time
