PREMIERS
BIRTHDAY
Chamberlain
"Fresh
and
Healthy"
Obstinate
for
Victory
Planning
More
Dynamic
Cabinet
LONDON,
March
18:
(CP)
As
fresh
and
healthy
In
appearance
as
before
the
war
began.
Prime
Minister
Neville
Chamberlain
celebrated
his
seventy-first
birthday
today.
Tomorrow
the
Prime
Minister
will
present
to
Parliament
a
comprehensive
explanation
of
the
war
ttfort
to
date.
Policies
will
be
explained
and
it
is
expected
something
will
be
said
about
the
ministry
of
supply
which
has
been
under
fire
of
late
in
connection
with
charges
of
improper
influences
having
been
brought
to
bear
in
connection
with
contracts.
In
political
quarters
there
are
expressions
of
belief
that
the
Prime
Minister
is
planning
cabinet
changes
to
institute
a
more
dynamic
war
policy.
As
for
Mr.
Chamberlain
himself,
he
is
believed
to-
be
more
firmly
entrenched
at
the
head
of
the
government
than
ever.
First
Lord
of
the
Admiralty
Winston
Churchill,
formerly
one
of
his
chief
critics,
says:
"Mr.
Chamberlain
is
as
obstinate
now
for
victory
as
he
was
before
for
peace."
