British Cabinet Shift
Reported Near; India
May Get New viceroy
Sinclair May Be Sent
To Bombay; Beoverbrook,
Cripps Involved
B! the Associated Press.


LONDON, Dec. 3.-Political OBJ
servers studied a report today
that Prime Minister Churchill
had asked Sir Archibald Sinclair,
Air Minister, to go to India as
Viceroy and speculated that an
other shutting bringing Lord
Beaverbrook back into the cabi-
net, was in the making.
The presence of Sir Archibald
John Clark Kerr, Ambassador to
Moscow, in London on an "indefi-
mite leave" also fed rumors to the
speculation, with one unsubstan-
tiated suggestion offered that Sir
Stafford Cripps might be sent back
to the Moscow post he held from
June, 1910, to January, 1912.
Sir Stafford, acclaimed as Brit
ain S most successful Ambassador to
the Soviet Union, joined the war
cabinet after his less than successful
mission to India, but dropped out
when he became Minister Of Air
craft Production November % at Mr..
Churchill's request.
Lord Beaverbrook held ministries
of aircraft production, state and
supply In 1910 and 1941 through
several cabinet changes, and last
February was named minister of
war production, but refused to enter
the war cabinet because of i'll
health. Oliver Lyttelton then took
the war production post.
Sinclair has been air minister two
years. He would succeed Lord
Linlithgow, who retires next March
after eight stormy years as Viceroy
Of India.
The political correspondent of the
News Chronicle said he understood
strong representations" had been
made to Sinclair in the last "a hours,
but it is not certain that he would
be prepared to undertake the
arduous duties awaiting the next
viceroy."

British Open Factories
In Abandoned BUILDINGS

Small war factories are operating
in many tumble down buildings in
Britain and thousands more may be
opened soon in empty shops, barns
and cowsheds, derelict churches,
mission halls and garages.
The ministries of supply, labor and
production in London plan to give
work to 100000 married women able
to do part time tasks Of simple
kind near their homes. Part-time
work is now done by 250,000 women
and a million more are needed. The
obstacle is that most Of those who
want part-time work live in rural
and urban areas, away from fac
tories. The plan is to take the fac
tories to the workers.
