When Mr.

Bingham purchased the Courier-Journal and the Times, Aug. 7, 1918, he had never been in a newspaper office except to renew his subscription. In the years that followed, however, he learned the technique of his new prolession and emerged a newspaperman. Started Station WHAS Branching out, he later established WHAS, Kentucky's first radio station. At first it was a 500-watler.

transmitting from the roof of the Courier-Journal and Times Building. Now it operates on 50,000 watts and is housed in a separate studio with a detached transmitting station. In acquiring his newspapers. Mr. Bingham was not actuated by a spirit of gain.

Because of his wealth the commercial venture was secondary. Fifty years under the editorship of Henry Watterson had built up around the papers certain traditions and a definite place in public estimation. Bingham needed this tradition and standing to give his Amhasnudor Robert Worth liingham, can Society In London. The Nazis characterized it as "an arrogant and ignorant" attempt to tell foreign nations how to run their affairs. He was recalled from London this Fall after an inflammation of the abdominal tract made it impossible for him to continue his duties, and on Nov.

25 entered Johns Hopkins Hospital, where an operation was performed on Dec. 14. Dr. William F. Reinhoff who performed the operation, said it was necessary because it had been "im-possiblcto diagnose the trouble." Mr.

Bingham, on entering the hospital, said he had had a recurrence of malaria. Family at Hospital At the hospital at the time w-ere his third wife and two children of his first wife, Barry Bingham of Louisville, co-publisher of the Courier-Journal and the Louisville Times, and Miss Henrietta Bingham, who has most of her time in Lon don. Another son by Bingham's first marriage, Robert W. lives in Edinburg. Scotland, and was un able to be present.

Mr. Bingham's interests were widespread and reached into nearly every phase of the commonwealth's life. His interest in Louisville, his adopted home town, was demonstrated most recently after the January, 1937, flood, when he hurried home from London to aid in rehabilitation work and discuss wiih other civic leaders steps to be taken to prevent a recurrence of such a cata.strophe. Shortly after Mr. Bingham's return to the United States for hospitalization, there were reports in Washington that he had resigned as ambassador and would be succeeded by Joseph P.

Kennedy, chairman of the United States Maritime Commission and former head of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Would Not Confirm Reports President Roosevelt would not confirm the reports. Under diplomatic precedent, there would.be no vacancy until acceptance by Great Britain of a proposed Mr. Bingham, whose papers had warmly supported President Roosevelt, was one of the earliest, diplo matic appointees of the New Dea adopted State of Kentucky his ideas, Arthur Krock, then the general edi-which he considered beneficial to tonal director of the papers, sug-the public welfare. gested to Colonel Waterson that Perhaps the most widely known of the papers should be sold to Mr.

Won Farae a Publisher Robert Worth Bingham had won a national reputation as a newspaper publisher when he was appointed by President Roosevelt to be Ambassador to the Court of St. James in 1933.

Yet he was originally trained as a lawyer and it was not until he was 47 that he acquired control of the Louisville Courier Journal, made famous by Marse Henry Watterson, and the Louisville Times.
