Treasury De. partment as a financial adviser of the American delegation at the peace conference, is a New York financier who began his career as a newspaper reporter and at the age of 40 found himself a member of the great bank- ing house of J. P. Morgan & Co. Born in an up-state town of New | York, Mr. Lamont received his aca- \demic training at Harvard and then went to the metropolis, where he rained his broadening education in in newspaper work building up a successful wholesale business. From the mercantile field he changed, to banking. Within a few years his energy and ability as a financier had become known, ana there was little surprise in Wali Street when, after the retirement of George W. Perkins from the Morgan house, Mr. Lamont was asked to as- sociate himself with that powerful corporation. % { } Today’s Events SoTmporeant after- ‘war problems ae slated for discussion at the annual convention of the Nortiern Pine Man- ufacturers’ association, meeting to- | day at Minneapolis.
