RESUME TRADITION Appointment of Mr. B a l c e : would resume for the Conserva- tives a tradition that has been broken off in recent years. This is that the government party's Quebec strong man under an English-speaking prime minister has been minister of justice. Rt. Hon. Ernest Lspointe was in this position while right-hand man of former prime minister Mackenzie King. and so was Rt. Hon. Louis St. Laurent before he became prime minister. Who might succeed Mr. Baicer as lolicito -general was problem- atical. A possibility was that it might be Hon. James Macdonneil. minister without portfolio. who may go to the Senate to open his Toronto Greenwood riding for Dr. Smith. Mr. Macdonneil is 72. Both Mr. Fulton and Mr. Balrer are lawyers, Mr. Fulton sitting for Kamloops. BC. and Mr. Bal- cer for Trois-Rivieres. Que. Mr. Fulton. it has been re- ported. was initially offered the office of Speaker-presiding ot- ficer-of the Commons by the new prime minister but turned it down in favor of a portfolio. The Speaker now is expected to be D. 3. Mi chener of Toronto St. Paul's. Should Mr. Fulton drop his jus- tice position. it would leave just one regular ' ' h ”' a second portfolio. This is Works Minister Howard Green, who has been doubling as defence produc- tion minister. Reports are that the defence production depart- ment may be folded up. will Be srli (Continued from page it The prime minister had been .n&i' cabinet the prime minister had been expected to lead the delega- tion himself for the first two days.
