F. LcLaughlin Judge In Hawaii The U. S. Senate has confirmed the appointment of Judge J. Frank McLaughlin as U.

S. district judge in Hawaii. Judge McLaughlin is a native of Leominster and the son of Atty. James F. McLaughlin, Worcester superior court officer, and Mrs.

McLaughlin, who now make their home in Worcester. Judge McLaughlin attended the Leominster schools and was graduat- uated from St. John's high in Worcester and from Dartmouth in 1930. He was graduated from Harvard law school in 1933 and was admitted to the Massachusetts bar the same year. Li 1934 Judge McLaughlin was appointed an attorney in the justice department at C.

The following year he was named assistant U. S. district attorney at Hawaii. In 1939 he was named judge oi. the-fourth circuit court at Hilo, Hawaii.

President Eoosevelt nominated Judge McLaughlin as a justice of the U. S. district court at Hawaii Dec. 12, 1942. He will succeed Judge Ingram M.

Stainbacfc Hawaii. now governor of Eden 'ing between the western democracies and Russia. He brought with him one of Britain's outstanding experts on Eus- sian problems--William Strang, assistant undersecretary of state in the foreign office, who patricipated in the 1939 Franco-British-Soviet talks in Moscow. After conferring with the president at the White House, Eden was expected to continue discussions with Secretary of State Hull and other government officials, Hull broke off a Florida vacation to return to the capital. In the course of his several weeks' stay it was considered likely Eden also would confer with Soviet Ambassador Maxim Litvinoff, China's Foreign Minister T.

V. Soong, and perhaps with Madame Chiang Kai- Shek, wife of the generalissimo. Here and in London, the purpose of Eden's visit was seen as two-fold: (1) A general exchange of views with the president and his policy-making advisers, and (2) a thorough exploration of the best means of preparing for meetings between all the United Nations governments for consideration of all aspects of the war and the problems arising out of it. One of the difficulties to be faced in planning for such general United Nations conferences is the fact that not all of the United Nations are fighting both Germany and Japan. All of them could confer on the war and post-war situation, but Russia, for instance, is rwt at wai with Japan and would not be likely to participate in any discussion of specific problems involving the" war with Nippon.

Both American and British Eden to touch-on-a Judge McLaughlin married Pauline Driscoll of Whitinsville in 1935, and have lived in Hawaii since 1935. They have two daughters, Paula and Jay.

The dapper diplomat flew into Washington yesterday amid echoes of recent speechei atresslng the cussions Among them will be: 1. The general problem of emergency and post-war relief and rehabilitation. In this connection it is significant that Eden's official party includes Hubert Miles Gladwyn Jebb, ftead of the British foreign office economic and reconstruction denartment. 2. Formation of some type of inter-Allied cboncil toco-ordinateaims and resolve conflicts between various members of the' United Nations, 'A case in point is the Polish-Russian dispute over post-war boundaries.

The question of postwar air and naval bases in the Pacific, which the United States already has declared it docs not want to transform into "art American lake," but does want to see made safe for all nations. 6.

announced for Eden, but in line with the policy followed by Prune Minister Churchill on his first wartime visit to Washington the foreign secretary is expected to make one or two public addresses. His visit is to last several weeks. He expects to spend at least part of his tune in this country visiting war factories and military establishments, getting a first-hand impression of the countrys' war effort. Morgan (Continued from Page One) most powerful figures was desperately ill in the little resort town. In fact, Morgan had been in bed for more than a week before the outside world learned that he was ill.

The first word came from his office at 23 Wall street in New York, where associates announced that he had been stricken and that they were concerned. Upon Morgan's death, his associates in New York issued this statement: "The directors of J. P. Morgan and announce with deepest regret the death of Mr. J.

P. Morgan at 3.15 o'clock today at Boca Grande Fla." Son of the first- John Pierpont Morgan who founded the famous banking firm in the 1890's, Morgan headed the firm through the First World war, the world depression oi the 1930s and in this Second World war. During the First World war, his bank handled for the Allies loans amounting to hundreds of of dollars and after the war floated billions dollars in loans in Wall street for foreign governments. The United States' lend-lease program took care of the Allies' most pressing needs in this war and bankers found their greatest usefulness in helping finance this government's bond issues. It was on this subject that Morgan gave his last public statement issued Sept.

18, 1942. "Nowhere in these "can a safer investment for savings than U. S. government bonds and of all the issues the war savings bonds seem the most advantageous." Time put its mark on the House of Morgan and on the banker, himself. He was wounded by an assailant seeking to discourage his efforts in helping the Allies in the First World war; the well-guarded bank building at 23 Wall street was scarred by a mysterious blast in 1920; in 1933 a Senate investigation opened to the public view, for the time, the bank's records and its varied enterprises.

In 1940 the name of the firm was changed from J. P. Morgan and Company, a partnership, to J. P. Morgan and Inc.

Morgan became board chairman instead of a partner. Later one of his associates said the partnership had been changed to corporate because Inheri- tance taxes raised difficulties oi keeping the bank's capital intact as partners died or withdrew. At the time of incorporation the firm was the greatest stronghold of unlimited liability in the nation with deposits of more than $600,000,000. The partners had pledged their fortunes and reputations behind those obligations. But because the firm is now a corporation the Morgan name may be perpetuated even if there were no more Morgans to carry on the banking tradition, although there are.

The old partnership rules would have made it necessary to drop the J. P. Morgan title if a Morgan had ceased to have a hand in the business. The 1933 Senate investigation revealed that the 20 partners held 167 directorships in 89 corporations which had total assets of 20 billion dollars, but Morgan Associates later said many of the corporations were merely subsidiaries of one another. Morgan resembled his father, weighing about 200 pounds, broad shoulders, heavy eyebrows, small eyes, large nose and the same tone of voice.

In later years he grew increasingly deaf and used a hearing device. His pleasures were yachting, raising flowers, playing backgammon, shooting grouse in Scotland. He shot grouse with King George VI. The monarch invited Morgan to London to attend his coronation in 1937. Morgan went but suffered a second heart attack and could not be present.

His first attack was 1936 at the home of his sister, Mrs. V. R. Crosby at West Manchester, other minor One of Morgan's likes was plenty of room--big yachts, big automobiles. The ceiling in his office was three stories high.

Once he had an English car made to order with a special top so he could sit in it without taking off his high silk hat. He dressed conservatively and had an English valet by the name of Henry Physick. Morgan owned two homes, one dty at Glen Cove, Long Island. In the shooting season, he rented a lodge at Gannochy, Forfarshire, Scotland. He was an ardent churchman and Bible and for many years lie was a warden of the Protestant Episcopal church of St John's of Lattingtown, Locust Valley, Long Island.

There, he passed the collection plate. At Christmas time in peace time, he annually imported tons of tea From China to distribute among his friends. Morgan took both hii sons into the banking bushiest with him. They were made partners but in 1934, because of the banking act restricting bank dealings in securities, Henry relinquished his partnership to -ttcome an officer in Morgan Stanley an investment House sponsored by the bank. The bankers wife, the former Jane Norton Grew, died of sleeping aiekntti in 1925.
