  • Imagereal Capture
    THE FOUNDATION OF THE MONASH LAW SCHOOL PETER BALMFORD* INTRODUCTION From 1853 to 1878, an Englishman named John Hughes Clayton practised as a solicitor in the City of Melbourne.' At the end of the working day, he was usually driven home by his coachman: a journey of about twelve miles to his property in a district known as "Old Dam~er".~In the course of time, the north-south road running past his property came to be called "Clayton's Road": the name was ultimately shortened to Clayton Road and from it derived the present name of the di~trict.~ Clayton had become a suburb of Melbourne long before 1958, when Mon- ash University was established by legislation of the Victorian Parliament.4 Nevertheless, the Interim Council of the new University was able to find there 250 acres of largely vacant land which it chose as the site on which to build.5 Sir John Monash (1865-1931), after whom the University was named, is celebrated as a soldier, as an engineer and as an administrator. He was a graduate of the University of Melbourne in Arts, Engineering and Law. He never practised as a barrister or solicitor, although, in the 1890s and the early years of the twentieth century, he appeared as an advocate in arbitrations on engineering disputes and frequently gave evidence as an expert witness in engineering and patent mattem6 This article gives an account of the foundation of the law school at Monash University, Clayton, in celebration of the twenty-five years of teaching which have now been completed.

  • John Latham in Owen Dixon's Eyes
    Chapter Six John Latham in Owen Dixon’s Eyes Professor Philip Ayres Sir John Latham’s achievements are substantial in a number of fields, and it is surprising that, despite the accessibility of the Latham Papers at the National Library, no-one has written a biography, though Stuart Macintyre, who did the Australian Dictionary of Biography entry, has told me that he had it in mind at one stage. Latham was born in 1877, nine years before Owen Dixon. As a student at the University of Melbourne, Latham held exhibitions and scholarships in logic, philosophy and law, and won the Supreme Court Judges’ Prize, being called to the Bar in 1904. He also found time to captain the Victorian lacrosse team. From 1917 he was head of Naval Intelligence (lieutenant-commander), and was on the Australian staff at the Versailles Peace Conference. Latham’s personality was rather aloof and cold. Philosophically he was a rationalist. From 1922-34 he was MHR for the Victorian seat of Kooyong (later held by R G Menzies and Andrew Peacock), and federal Attorney-General from 1925-29 in the Nationalist government, and again in 1931–34 in the Lyons United Australia Party government. In addition he was Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for External Affairs from 1931-34. He resigned his seat and was subsequently appointed Chief Justice of the High Court (1935-52), taking leave in 1940-41 to go off to Tokyo as Australia’s first Minister to Japan. Latham was a connoisseur of Japanese culture. He fostered a Japan-Australia friendship society in the 1930s, and in 1934 he led an Australian diplomatic mission to Japan, arranging at that time for the visit to Australia of the Japanese training flotilla.
