LLOYD GE0RGE:
 CAUSES SPLIT
 IN LIBERALS
[RepubIican A. p. Leased wireI


 LONDON, Dec. S.3Events today emphasized the fact that Lloyd George. the new premier has split the Liberal party into two factions. The new cabi- net will command more support from the conservatives in parliament than from the liberals
 The liberals conference pledged itself to support the new government hut the old party leaders will occupy in the house of commons a place of friendly oppositiYn and criticism.
 Nearly all the antagonism the new administration will face comes from members of the liberal party and from liberal newspapers although Lord Northcliffe who has been one of Pre- mier Lloyd Georges strongest advo- eates, made a strong protest today in the Evening News when the appoint- ment of A. j. Balfour and Lord Robert Cecil to the foreign office was stated.
 A large section of the liberal re- mains faithful to eN-Premier As,nith. and looks upon Lloyd George as a party wrecker and decries the method by which he achieved power
 Criticism is freely made Of the old cabneteers that they were too inn portant to listen to their followers
 The chief comment on today's liberal conference is that MT, Asquith con sented to meet the rank and file and his party interests only when he was leaving office. The newspapers com plain that he had been deaf to former appeals. to take his followers into his confidence
 The opposition to Premier Lloyd George seems to be centered largely in London political and newspaper circles. London generally is no safe advantage point from which to judge the pOltica. feeling Of Great Britain as Washington is to gauge American sentiment. Pub lie opinion throughout the country ap- pears to have crystailized in favor of Lloyd Georges program and on the point that the people should give his government fair trial with loyal sup port
