SIR MILES LAMPSON
HIGH COMMISSIONER FOR EGYPT
(British Official Wireless.) (Received 19, 12.30 p.m.) RUGBY, Aug. 18.
The King has approved the appointment of Sir Miles Lampson as High Commissioner for Egypt and the Sudan. Sir Miles entered the Foreign Office in 1903, later having held posts at Tokio, Pekin, Sofia and elsewhere. He has been British Minister in China since 1926. In 1921 he was attached to the British delegation at the Washington Disarmament Conference, and in 1925 to the Locarno Conference.
The appointment to Cairo of a professional diplomat of such wide experience gives assurance that the cordial Anglo-Egyptian relations which have subsisted in the last four years will continue, and that the change at the Residency implies no change in British policy.
