RUGBY, Wednesday. ?he Prime Minister, Mr. Ramsay cDonald, will make use of his brief pite at Lossiemouth, where he will lain until Sunday night, to give il consideration to the filling of chief posts in the Cabinet. Prese of work, particularly with the. lan Conference affairs since the 1 of his extremely strenuous eleei campaign, has delayed his deon on the matter. There is no truth in the suggesi that the composite character of National majority has raised the jstion of party claims- The Prime lister has his embarrassment in material at his disposal from ich to choose, but he will make his il selection from the men most ted, in his opinion, for the tasks to undertaken. Mr. MacDonald will probably anmce these at the end of the week. Great reception at Lossiemouth Great enthusiasm marked the arai of the Prime Minister at Lossieuth to-day. In a speech at the civic :eption at Elgin and Forres, he said i end of the election did not end i country's troubles. Greater and re complicated questions had to be led, but his colleagues and he were ;ermined to carry those problems a successful issue. The Governnt had no magical wand, but he >ed by persistence, ability and coura that they would restore the nan to its old position.
