The policy speech of the new Cabinet is awaited with interest, and some highly radical proposals are foreshadowed. The of the Opposition will be in the capable hands of the lata Prime Minister, Mr H. A,.Elli3on, and the opinion is widely held that it will not be long before the exPremier again occupies the position of power.
