Churchill's cabinet rise marks young American ties strong

The new British cabinet premier selects Winston Churchill as president of the board of trade, a position likened to a U S secretary of commerce. Churchill, son of Jennie Jerome, the American-born social figure, gains a notable seat at thirty four. His career spans Harrow Sandhurst and the Hussars with later reforms and adventures.
