 ' List Incomplete
 It is understood that this list of lY ministers constitutes the cabinet, al- though it is officially announced that it is not necessarily complete. The other ministers and under-secrctaries will be named later and the government is not likely to be completed until next week. The cabinet ministers, however, will be able to follow custom and at tend the lord mayors banquet Monday in their official capacity.
 On the whole, the new cabinet is like l ly to be we'll received by the country, but Premier Baldwin supplied two first class surprises, the first, in killing the fatted calf for Churchill, "a newcomer to the ranks of conservatism, which he deserted 20 years ago, and the second which is generally held to be conse, quence of the first, in the exclusion oi Sir Robert Stevenson Horne. .. MT. Churchill, by reason of his DO, | litical record, which, under one party or another, covered the most important offices in the government, could have consiaered himself entitled to high of. flee, but it was generally supposed, in view of his so recent reconversion to the conservative creed, that he would be required to serve sort of novltiatt period in one of the less important of fees. Under the liberal flag, as now under the conservative colors, he al ways waged uhceasing and bitter wal against socialism and bolsheVism and l since the recent elections were won by | the conservatives on an antirsoclallsl plank, Mir. Churchill undoubtedly held that he was thereby entitled to the l highest consideration.
