bers of his cabinet who survived Thursdays defeat at the polls were divided as to the proper course. Sir Austen Chamberlain, foreign min- ister. was of opinion that his party leader should carry on as long aa possible. Winston Churchill, chan cellor of the excheque. believed the proper and more dignified thins would be to resign at once and let the laborites have their way. Public opinion, too, seemed di- vided, although there was a ten- dency in evidence in published ex- pressions and in editorials in the press. to favor immediate resigna- ton and formation of a labor gov. ernment.
 Lloyd George silent
 Hardly less than the riddle pre- sented by MT. Baldwin was that of- fered in the person of David Lloyd George, the canny Welshman whose politics has influenced British gov ernment So much in the past It years There was as much lack oi knowledge as ever whether either tacit or open support would be giv- en by the Liberal chieftain to either labor or conservative parties. It appeared that Lloyd George and his followers, apparently with full realization of the important role they may play in holding the balance of power, were awaiting Mir. Bald wins move and would remain ab- solutely silent as to their intentions until the prime minister has shown his hand. This may be today, or Tuesday, or Wednesday.
 Meanwhile there were several in- teresttnE reports current, among them one that Sir Oswald Mosley, the young baronet who married Lord Curzon's daughter. Cynthia would be the labor minister for for eign affairs to replace Sir Austen Chamberlain. Sir Oswald is a patrician laborite and has labored unceasingly with Lady Cynthia for his adopted cause.
 Wife American Girl
 Lady Cynthia is the granddaughter Of Levi z. Letter, pioneer Chicago merchant. Her mother was Mary Curzon. famous Chicago belle, who married Lord Curzon. Lady Cynthia mas Just won seat in the commons.
 Another report. recurring with some frequency. was that Premier Baldwin would relinquish leader ship of the conservative party. The Dispatch, one of Lord Rothermere's papers, suggested he might well ask himself whether he should continue as its leader.
 The newspaper then added that his only conceivable successor was Neville Chamberlain, brother Of Sir Austen. who in the general slump in conservative vote totals last Thursday won his own con- stituency by . large majority.
 Nine Seats Uncertain
 One of 10 unreported seats was placed in the conservative column with completed returns Sunday, leaving but nine seats uncertain.

 The London Times. which ranks as an independent but which gives general support to the government said editorially today:
 "The one outstanding result of the election is that labor will form the next government by virtue of it's largest following in the com. mons.
 That was the manifest intention of the nation. and labor may dis miss any lingering suspicion that the conservatives are fabricating any unholy alliance for the purpose of obstructing it.
 K x the country voted for a labor government and by the side of that plain fact the question whether there b to be a labor gov ernment this week or this month is of relatively small importance. X xx there should be no shadow of suspicion that maneuvers are Afoot to rob labor of tho fruits of victory"
 The conservative Morning Post asserted that the government neither could nor would try to hold office by 'eektng liberal support.
