Government of all the Talents Peking, Aug. 28.
In view of the impending vote on Mr, Tang Shao-yi for the premiership it is interesting to note that two of Mr. Tang Shao-yi's supporters are already in the Cabinet. Southern influence is thus virtually replacing that of General Chang Tso-lin.
The following grouping of the Cabinet has been obtained from Chinese semijoMicial sources, Dr. Wang Chung-hui, Dr. Wellington Koo and Mr, Li Ting-hsin, Indepen-denis; Messrs Chang Shou-tseng. Kao En-hung, Chang Yin-hua and Sun Tan-lin, members of the Chihli party; Messrs Chang Yao-tseng and Lu Hsin, members of the Chen Hsueh-huei_ party, the leadership of which Mr. Tang. Shao-yi inherited from Mr. Chen Chun-hsuan, It should be emphasized that the independents do not represent a party but are individual and are without affiliation, while the Chibli party's right is sub-divided as follow for Tao Kun, Messrs. Chang Shou-tseng and Chang Yin-hu, for Wu Pei-fu Messrs, Kao En-hung and Sun Tan-lin with Mr. Chang Shan-tseng as the'main uniting factor, and all are on good terms.
The majority of this Cabinet speak English fluently and are on excellent personal terms with foreigners, It is not generally known that Mr. Chang Yin-hu gained his Rugger Blue at Oxford.—Renter.
