Andrew Lambert, second engineer of the

formed an act of personal bravery upon

position he holds as the Prime Minister
who practically sustains the government of
Great Britain upon his own shoulders.

sured of his general sympathies with their
designs. On his retirement the whole Or
ganization will be readjusted."
