Nottingham Evening Post: Tuesday 14th February 1933

London: Tuesday: It is not unnatural to draw the inference that the announcement made last evening that Mr. T. K. Bewley has been appointed financial adviser to his Majesty’s Ambassador at Washington, and will proceed to America with Sir Ronald Lindsay, is in some way connected with the impending war debt discussions. I am told however, that this is not the case – that Mr. Bewley’s appointment is not an ad hoc one, nor will he participate in the subsequent debt mission. It is pointed out, moreover, that the post, though new in Washington, has been in existence for some time at our embassy in Berlin, and that a similar post will shortly be created at the Paris Embassy. Mr. Bewley is a high official of the Treasury, his present rank being that of assistant secretary to that department. Mr. Pincent, the financial adviser to the Ambassador Berlin, is also a prominent Treasury official, and seems probable that the post in Paris will also be filled by another expert from this department. Bearing this fact in mind, I should be inclined to think the appointments are being made rather with a view to the preservation of our sterling policy than in any connection with war debts. The setting up the exchange equalisation account has brought finance much more closely into touch with diplomacy than was hitherto the case.
