LONDON. Jan. 23 — London's "kindly magistrate" died today. He was Frederick Oswald Lang- ley, 63, who won his nick-name because of his understanding ap- proach to problems confronting him in Old Street Court.

Langloy won respect for his hcnrt-to-heart talks with accused persons and he always made sure they knew exactly what was be- ing done. He detested secrecy and once said: "Trials in camera are the most dangerous things in the world."

He had many interests and formerly contributed light verse to Punch.
