Elliott. newly elected member for West Middiesex. will move the address in reply to the Speech from the Throne at tho opening oi’ the fif- teenth Parliament and L. Lacombe of Two Mountains will second the address, Premier ‘King announced tonight. Following the Canadian custom in this piece of parliament- nry procedure the honors are div- lded between English speaking and French speaking members. Mr Elliott is a former member of the Ontario legislature and Mr. La- combe is a Montreal barrister. The debate of the address will probably not commence until Jan- uary ll, the Monday following the opening ceremonies. The government, it. is known, is proceeding on the basis that with tho meeting of Parliament and the election of tho speaker of the House of Commons, its position has been established. With this in view .appolntments which have been ilefcrred since the general election will probably be made early in the session. There are senate vacancies to be "filled as well as numerous minor appoint- ments in the civil service. thus the government will not wait for the inevitable test of strength at the conclusion of the debate an the ad- dress before assuming tho entire functions of office.
