UK Restrictions "Less Severo"

London, July 6. *) Mr Selwyn Lloyd, Minis ter of State, said today that British restrictions on the movements of Soviet diplo mats in Britain were still much less severe than those in force in Russia,

This was after the reitixations recently Dounced by the Soviet Government.

Mr 'Lloyd had been asked in the House of Cominous what restrictions now existed.

Suggestion Of An Internal Conservative Party Crisis

London, July 7.

Sir Winston Churchill, at the age of 78 and, under doctors' orders

to rest, is grappling with his biggest problem since the days when he was Britain's war leader strengthening his Conservative Cabinet until the heavy toll taken by age and illness has been resolved.

-

This suggests that a Government reshuffle is not far off, and the Prime Minister may have to comb the younger ranks of the party for some of the people he needs to reinforce his weakened Ministry.

The situation contains all the elements of, an internal Conservative crisis, which may involve not only the question, of Sir Winston Churchill'a own con- linuntion in the Premiership, but also the decision of who will succeed him -- Mr Anthony Eden, the Foreign Secretary, who will be unable to

resume his 'duties until the autumn, or Mr R. A. Butler, who is running the day-to-day affairs of the country as temporary Prime Minister while still carrying on his normal job as head of the Treasury.

and

But is recognised there is just the chance that the gallant Churchill frame has at last called "enough" and that he may have to take calor care of himself in future.

Politicians are, anking what will happen if this proves to be the case. They cannot see Sir Winston Churchill clinging to office unless he feels fully con- tent of carrying it on with all his old vigour.

But one thing is generally regarded as certain. Only a firm conviction that Mr Eden, for health reasons, could not possi- bly inherit his manile would reconcile the Prime Minister to the idea that it should fall on Mr Butler.
