PLANS FOR REORGANIZlNG
GREAT BRITAIN'S CABINET
Changes Will Be Necessary as Re
suit Of Promotion Of
Lloyd George.

LONDON, July GA reorganization
of the cabinet will be necessary when
the announcement Is made tomorrow
or Saturday of Lloyd Georges promo
ton to the war office. Edwin Mon
tagu, financial secretary of the treas
ury, is expected to succeed him as
minister of munitions.
The Morning Telegraph believes that
j. Austin Chamberlain will retire as
secretary for India in order that a
member of the house of lords may be
appointed, filing the cabinet vacancy
in the upper house caused by the death
of Lord Kitchener. In this case Mr..
Chamberlain would receive another Of
five of equal Importance to that which
he now holds.
Another way of meeting the vacancy
in the upper house would be the eleva-
ton of Sir Edward Grey to the peerage.
According to some of the morning pa
pers it is proposed to create Harold j.
Tenant, parliamentary secretary for
war, a peer and have him succeed Mr..
Montagu as chancellor of the Duchy of
Lanca ster. a post which the latter holds
in addition to his secretaryship.

LONDON. July e.-The complete de-
tails of Lloyd Georges scheme for pro-
visional home rule for Ireland were

following are the principal features:
First. An Irish house of commons
will be constituted by the transfer
renee to the Irish parliament of seven
ty-eight members now sitting in the

A. F. L. Plan Rejected.

A proposal by an American Fedora
ton Of Labor's representative that
meeting of organized labor should be
held at the same time and place as the
peace conference was opposed by the
English delegates as impracticable and
liable to lay the labor movement open
to ridicule. The proposal was rejected
after a discussion in which it was sup
ported by the French delegates.
The question of the freedom of the
sea was discussed on the French pro-
posal that freedom should be main
tanned after the war. The English
delegates stoutly opposed this. saying
that they would not tolerate anything
which would jeopardize England's food
supply by interfering with the power
of the British fleet. They maintained
that. as far as England was concerned,
the seas were free before the war and
would continue free thereafter. The
resolution was withdrawn.
