For most of the early 1940's Knox's work reveals his interest in war finance and post war recovery but there are also files on something called the Book Binder's Arbitration. After the war there are files on a Hyde Park Conference, Bretton Woods, the European League for Economic Co-operation and the Commonwealth Conference of 1951.
