LLOYD GEORGE WINS LIBEL SUIT AGAINST LONDON NEWSPAPER
Premier Proves in Court That He Did Not Leave Capital to Escape
 Air Raid

London, October 16.-The libel &C., tions brought recently by Premier Lloyd George against the Exchange Telegraph company, the Westminster Gazette and the Daily News for pub- fishing the statement that he left I.on- don when an air raid warning was given, has been withdrawn, the terms being an apology for the publication, and the payment of certain sum, the indemnify the premier for his costs in the action. The premier was pres- ent when the case was called at a special sitting of the Kings Bench di- vision today, where the settlement was announced.
 MT. Lloyd George, in giving evidence, said that on the night in question he left with General Sir William R. Rob- ertson and Admiral Jellicoe to have interviews with the French premier and chiefs of staff The raid was ac- tually in progress when they reached Charing Cross station. As the train waited on the bridge, they could see shrapnel bursting. Realizing what remarks the published statement would cause, particularly among the munition workers, the premier declared he took legal action in order to bring home to the public the absolute falseness of the charge.
 The defendants, finding that their statements were untrue, announced their willingness to apologize and withdrew all imputations.
 Under the circumstances the premier did not press his suit.

 Behind President Wilson

New York, October 16.-Every Ameri- cans paramount duty is to- stand behind the President and Congress and support anything and everything our govern ment does in this war; William Jen- nings Bryan told members of the New York Advertising clubs today. He said he came from the west to spend three days here, speaking for woman suffrage and at the request of Secretary McAdoo, campaigning for the second liberty loan.
