Macmillan Keeps Loyalists as Eden Links Spark Rumors
The new British cabinet under Prime Minister Harold Macmillan largely preserves familiar names including foreign secretary Sir Selwyn Lloyd. Richard Butler returns as leader in the Commons and home secretary, while Peter Thorneycroft becomes chancellor. The Lloyd retention draws sharp opposition from Liberal and Labour papers, who call it a militant unrepentance over Suez. The Times notes justice in Lloyd’s appointment but warns on world opinion. Separately, 93 year old twins from Frostburg celebrate long lifespans.
