    Elbert Duncan Thomas (June 17, 1883 – February 11, 1953) was a Democratic Party politician from Utah.
    He represented Utah in the United States Senate from 1933 until 1951.
    Thomas was first elected to the Senate as a Democrat in 1932, defeating Republican Reed Smoot.
    He served on the Committee on Education and Labor (of which he was the Chairman), the Committee on Military Affairs, the Mines and Mining Committee, and the Committee on Labor and Public Welfare.
    In April 1943 a confidential analysis of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee by British scholar Isaiah Berlin for the British Foreign Office characterized Thomas as:
    a Mormon ex-missionary, whose work was mostly done in the Far East.
    He speaks Japanese fluently, and his attitudes towards post-war problems is coloured principally by his Far Eastern views which are summed up in his statement that "the days of the white man's domination are over and the British Empire is almost certain to be dissolved in that part of the world."
    He is an out and out internationalist and interventionist, who has voted with the Administration on all foreign measures.
    He is essentially a free trader but, nevertheless, occasionally votes with the Farm Bloc which is powerful in the agricultural State which he represents.
    He is an ardent champion of the Jewish army scheme.
    Thomas was among twelve nominated at the 1944 Democratic National Convention to serve as Franklin D. Roosevelt's running mate in the presidential election that year.
    He served three terms before being defeated for reelection by Wallace F. Bennett in 1950.
    In 1951, he was appointed High Commissioner over the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands.
    Elbert died in Honolulu, Hawaii Territory on February 11, 1953.
    He was buried in the Thomas family plot in the Salt Lake City Cemetery.
