Berkenhead, Eng, Sept. 7.-Pren1ief
Lloyd George, in q speech here today,
on receiving the freedom Of the city
declared that the whole allied cause
and the freedom Of the world depend

was certain it would be maintained.

the Russian democracy knew that.
That is why they have not moved from
their loyalty to the allies despite all

Her instinct taught her that free
