BRITISH CABINET HAS TOO MANY PASSENGERS.
IMPORTANT CHANGES ARE PREDICTED. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. Aus. and N.Z. Cable Association. (Received January 24, 12.50 p.m.) LONDON, January 23. It is persistently rumoured that important Cabinet changes are likely to take place before Parliament meets in February. The revision is suggested as necessary bv “The Times” in an editorial which is variously believed to be inspired by Conservative headquarters, where marked changes in the management followed the Hon F. S. Jackson's appointment’ as Governor of Bengal. It is recognised that Cabinet is too large and is carrying too many passengers. The most, prominent disappearance is expected to be Sir Philip Cun-liffe-Lister, who may go to the House of Lords. It is understood that consideration is being extended to the abolition of the Ministerics of Transport, Alines, and Labour, the functions of which will revert to the Board of Trade as before the war.
