 The division other than Judge and Prosecutor still is tentative with To- cal COP and Democrat forces set to sit down together soon to thrash it out. COP sources yesterday de- clared they felt confident a near 5O-5O basis could be worked out equitably Administration forces are fighting for the probation office po- sition but are said to have little chance of receiving it. Atty. James LaWlor, assistant purchasing direc- tor of the city is said to be the ad- ministrationS choice. However Matzkin has been promised the post again by the COP, it is reported, and will be retained.

 The general election has seized British public interest almost to the exclusion of the possibility of big three conference. It is like the United States, in early October be- fore a presdenitla election.
 Conservative newspapers say Churchill will stump the country during the election campaign and will make at least one major radio speech. The campaign will dominate his life until July 5, though he will continue to devote much private attention to international questions.
 It also is improbable that Church. ill would attend any international conference during the three-week period between July and the an- nouncementS of the final results.
 Any comments Churchill might make in that period would be of uncertain value because he might be out of office before they could be carried out.
 Churchill, meantime, was busy constructing the cabinet which will serve with him pending the elec- tion.
