WAR MEMOIRS
LLOYD GEORGE’S BOOK MR CHURCHILL’S REVIEW. LONDON, October 27. The opinion that the Irish rebellion unintentionally helped the Empire is expressed by Mr Winston Churchill, in his review of the second volume of Lloyd George’s war memoirs.

Mr Churchill says he considers that Mr Lloyd George did not desire the Premiership in 1916 until the last moment, and thought it beyond his reach. He would have been contented to manage the war under Mr Asquith’s leadership. but, instead of receiving the authority he deserved, he was sent to the War Office, where he bad to bear the odium of every failure.
