WASHINGTON — The State Department will name a former World Bank chief, Paul Wolfowitz, to head a high-level advisory panel on arms control and disarmament.

The move by Secretary of State Rice marks a return to government for Mr. Wolfowitz, a conservative with close ties to the White House. Mr. Wolfowitz was replaced as World Bank chief in June after a stormy-two-year tenure. His leadership was undermined by a furor over a hefty compensation package he arranged in 2005 for a bank employee who was also his girlfriend.
