S PLAN

m w ■ ■Press Telegraph—Copyright Thursday. The “MoPßig Post’s” political correspondent says that a powerful element in Cabinet, with which Mr Baldwin is generally associated, is belioved to be anxious to reach an understanding with Mr Lloyd George, who met the Cabinet committee for the first time toSix meetings have been provisionally arranged to examine his “New Deal” proposals. Mr Lloydv George’s friends say he will not consider co-operation with the Government unless an undertaking is given for the flotation of an adequate prosperity loan and the appointment of a national development board of whose personnel he approves. Satisfaction regarding these conditions might leave room for a compromise concerning other proposals under the heads of road, land and housing schemes, industrial reorganisation and finance. There is a growing belief that the meetings will lead to the inclusion of Mr Lloyd George in a reconstructed Cabinet. A British Official Wireless message states that discussions of a general character, extending over two hours, took place between Mr Lloyd George and members of , the Cabinet committee which for some time past has been considering the proposals for national development of which he is the author. Dotails of his plans will be explored at further meetings.
