Lord Robert Cecil.

New Member of House of Lords
Makes Spirited Plea for Strict.

Usual Dgnified Style of Ad.
dress in Upper House.

london, Feb. 22.--The government,
through the Marquis Of I.ansdowne, an
nounccd in the House of Lords tonight
that it had decided to turn over all
matters connected with the blockade
OF Germany to one man who would
rank as full Pledged cabinet minister.
1t is understood that the new post will
go to Lord Robert Cecil. who. since
the formation of the coalition govern
ment, has been under secretary for
foreign affairs. He will retain this
post, joining the cabinet as blockade
minister.
Tho new minister will be charged
with the administration OF the order
in council regulating the blockade, ms
we'll as responsibility for the general
policy and practice of tho government
with respect to trade passing into or
from neutral countries.
Lord Robert Cecil is a lawyer OF Wild
experience and young man, as mem
bers Of the British cabinet go. In tho
foreign office he has been intimately
concerned with the blockade opera e
lions particularly in their relation to
the complicated matters touching bel
ligercnt and neutral rights. His
elevation to the cabinet will give the
unonists another representative in the
coalition councils.
The whole question of the blockade
was threshed out at considerable
length in the House of Lords this aft =
ernoon. Baron Sydenham and Baron
Beresford made the principal appeals
for a stricter blockade. while the Mar
auis OF Lansdowne and Baron Buck
master defended the government. IT
was Baron Beresford's maiden speech
IN tho House of Lords and his plea
was spirited and epigrammatic. con
trastinE notably with the ordinary
sombre. ultra disnified debates of the
upper house.
