KITCHENER WILL
STAY IN CABINET 7
Best Opinion is That There
Should Be a Man Responsible
For Control of Production of
Munitions.

LONDON, May p. - There was a
great deal of news Friday in regard to
the formation of a war ministry First
public feeling has been outraged by
the attacks on Lord Kitchener. This
has been reflected in high circles and
it is desired on both sides that Kitch-
ener should accept an invitation which
will be rendered him to continue in
the Office of secretary for war in the
new ministry. The suggestion that he
might take up other duties of equal
importance, but outside the cabinet,
has receded into the background.
Also the hope is strongly enter
tanned that there will be no recrudes-
cence of the controversy affecting Sir
John French and Lord Kitchener to
matters that are past.
Little credence can be given TO ru-
mOTS of a dual control of the war Of
fee. Lloyd George Will remain at the
head of the treasury. The best opin-
ion now is that there should be a min
lister responsible for the control of the
reproduction and manufacture OF
munitions who would be outside the
cabinet. Since Lloyd George cannot
take the matter directly in hand 1t
would be for the cabinet TO decide
what was necessary on the grounds of
S~olicy and give instructions TO the
minister in control.
Representations from the highest
quarters in the city, including the
bank of England have been made TO
the government that it would grave
~ disturb public credit and stability if
Lloyd George were TO leave the treas
ury. The feeling in the city is that
since the outbreak of the var Mr..
Lloyd George has conserved the tinan-
cial interests of the country and that
he has given great guarantees which
have saved more than one critical sit
uatiOn and for which he as a minister
was responsible For a minister who
has inspired such trust TO leave Office
at this stage might result In some
panic in the financial world. It fol-
lows that Lloyd George must be in
vited 10 remain as chancellor of the
eXcheQuer in the war ministry.
