LONDON. Dec 25.-The Specta-
tor points out to Englishmen that
the honorary degree OF doctor OF
laws conferred by Cambridge uni
versity on J. P. Morgan of New
York. was extraordinarily well-de-
served"
Mr.. Morgan has always been A
fast friend Of this country and a
hard worker for closer Anglo
American understanding. the Spec
tator continues. Early IN 1915 his
firm was selected to act as CONNER
cial agents for the British govern
ment in the United States. II was
n who concentrated and coordi-
mated the enormous orders for war
materials. He also acted as agent
for the French government and hv
eliminating competition In prices
and deliveries he probably saved The
allies hundreds OF millions OF
pounds
1T was Mr. Morgan again who
took the chief part in placing on TN
American market the Anglo-French
loan for OO,oOO,CoO pounds, loan
unprecedented in the history OF OK
tcrnal loans by any government. He
refused 10 accept any remuneration
for placing this loan. His work in
using British securities 10 stabilize
the exchange was also invaluable.
He has done more than risk his
fortune in the cause OF the allies
he has also risked his life. His es-
cape from the German assassin who
twice wounded him was a narrow
one. Englishmen may well rejoice
