In 1969, Senator [[Vance Hartke]] (D-Indiana) introduced the Peace Act (S. 953), to establish a cabinet-level called for the new department to develop "plans, policies and programs designed to foster peace," coordinate all U.S. government activities affecting "the preservation or promotion of peace," to cooperate with other governments in planning for peaceful conflict resolution, and promote the exchange of ideas between private parties in the U.S. and other countries. The bill further provided for establishment of an International Peace Institute that would train citizens for service, a Peace by Investment Corporation, and the transfer of agencies such as the [[Peace Corps]], [[United States Agency for International Development|Agency for International Development]], and the International Agricultural Development Service, to the new department. The bill received popular support from anti-war groups, Catholic and Baptist publications, author [[Norman Cousins]], and others.<ref>{{cite book|title=Why a Department of Peace?|author=Frederick L.
