Administrative history

Tyler, Royall (04.05.1884 - 02.03.1953).

Career:

  • 1919 Interrogator, World War I; with US delegation, Paris Peace Conference;
  • 1919-1923 Delegate, US Reparation Commission;
  • 1924-1941 Economic and Financial Committee and Financial Section, League of Nations;
  • 1946-1949 World Bank; scholar.

He was one of several young Army officers chosen for their intelligence and abilities to serve on the United States delegation to the Paris Peace Conference, where he participated in discussions on reparations. As a result, he spent four years as a US delegate on the Reparations Commission (1919-1923). Arthur Salter recommended him as League of Nations deputy commissioner general to oversee the economic reconstruction of Hungary. Such work led to a regular association with the Economic and Financial Committee of the League of Nations, which sent Tyler on other missions to Greece (1927); after 1938 he worked with the League of Nations' Financial Section.
