By Assoeiated Press

London, October 22.-With the de- psrture of Mir. Lloyd George for his country residence and the secre- tariat at No. 10 Downing street busy preparing for removal. political in-. terest today shifted to onsiow Gar dens. where Andrew Bonar Law Is giving the finishing touches to his cabinet list for presentation to the King tomorrow.
 Lloyd Cave, former home secretary. visited Mir. Bonar Law today. but nothing developed to throw light on the future.
 The Sunday papers are full of predictions regarding the program of the new government and the com position of the cabinet. All give ad- vice to the prospective prime min ister on the necessity of settling foreign affairs. so that the country's trade may be carried on. The Sunday Observer appeals for fair play for MT. Bonar Law and his colleagues and urges the immediate clearing up of foreign affairs.
 Situation Serious
 For" it adds, "the coalition has left behind 1t a far more serious sit uation than the country has yet be- gun to realize. The Chanak crisis, reacting far and wide on the rest of our external connections, has worked to the profound prejudice of our whole world policy and of our own most vital interests. After a dis astrous six weeks, the general sItu- ation is no longer what 1t was be- fore--it is deeply changed to our det- riment."
 Referring to Mir. Lloyd George. the Observer says:
 "The retiring premier is by far and away the most brilliant leader in the world. His peace ministry was much below his war ministry in merit. A great tenure of office and power will return to him in due season-not. we hope, before he has had leisure enough to refresh and deepn his thought"
 Fascinating Figure
 The Sunday Times in an editorial on MT. Lloyd George says:
 For the time being the greatest personal force. the most fascinating figure in our politics is out of power"
 The paper considers that 1t should be recorded that there is one DOT ton of his career that will always be blazoned in letters of gold in British annals. By his transcendent services in the war, first as minister of munitions and second In the premiership, he brought about vic tory, on which alone his whole being was centered. Throw into the scale every defect of personality that crit icism may discover and every mistake in policy that may be imputed to him since the armistice, MT. Lloyd George still remains of all living Britons the one to whom the country and the iempire are most indebted"
 Can Trust Bonar Law
 The Sunday Times thinks that the country will be safe in the hands of prime minister as level headed as Mir. Bonar Law.
 "He is not a great man, nor clever man." says the paper. but Great Britain just now is looking for man whose character it can trust and on whose not too exciting abil- ities it hopes to repose in tranquility. and 1t is disposed to believe that it has found what 1t wants in MT. Bonar Law"
 Regarding the rumors of Mir. Bonar Laws health the political correspon- dent of the People claims to know that the statement that MT. Bonar Laws medcal advisors warned him against taking a heavy responsibility is not correct.
 The new leader was never in bet ter health" he declares, "and his doctors gave him clear bill of health"
