 | Laid up, prior to World War I. Built by Harlan and Hollingsworth at Wilmington, Delaware, this yacht was ordered taken over for U.S. Navy service abroad on 14 July 1917 and assigned the identification number SP-432. However, these orders were cancelled on 27 September 1917 without any action being taken. The photograph, showing Oneida without her funnel, suggests that she was in poor condition, and thus unsuitable for Navy use.

Economic History | Afghanistan | The first extensive American contact with Afghanistan was made by Josiah Harlan, an adventurer from Pennsylvania who was an adviser in Afghan politics in the 1830s and reputedly inspired Rudyard Kipling's story "The Man Who Would be King." After the establishment of diplomatic relations in 1934, the U.S. policy of helping developing nations raise their standard of living was an important factor in maintaining and improving U.S.-Afghan ties.
