London, March 11,

Sir Winston Churchill joined the glants of British art today when 61 of his paintings were given a one-man exhibition at the “Royal Academy here.

The paintings show his development as an artist from the lime of the Flanders pictures until last year.

The road to the exhibi- tion started in 1915 when leaving the Admiralty after the Dardanelles venture, the then Mr Churchill used a

HIGHER POST FOR DULLES

New York, March 10. Private letters of President Eisenhower, published here to-

day, reveal that he favoured creating a new, more im- › portant Cabinet position for Mr John Foster Dulles last year.

The new post would be called "The First Secretary

of the Government."

The letter was one of many gathered by Life Magazine from more than 500 people on the president's "per- -sonal list."

In a letter dated January, 20, 1050, Mr Eisenhower sald "My ideal organisational elange would be to create a post which I would call The First Secre- logy of the Government."

This officer who in this cose would be Mr Dulles-would be responsible to the President for co-ordinating and directing the cfforts of the State Department, the U.S.I.A. the I.C.A., and the
