LLOYD GEORGE HITS OUT.
SWORD AND TROWEL, LONDON, June 22. ‘‘Twelve people can’t work with, me, but three million Liberals can. I do not seek leadership, but want service, and decline to allow myself to be driven out of the party,” said Mr Lloyd George, in a speech at a National Liberal Club luncheon. “If the Liberals embroider a personal quarrel on the party banners,” he declared, “Liberalism is doomed. Mr Winston Churchill is butting in because he did not like my action during the general strike. He gave tlie Mlorning Post an injection of simian gland, and it is devoting its renewed youth to fomenting Liberal discord. I have come to the club to eat, drink and be merry, for yesterday I was dead. There is a cloud no bigger than a man’s hand, and there is a sword in it which may be very menacing. Let us have a sword in one hand and. a trowel in the qt.her.”
