The Washington times., 1917-07-03

Lord Northclife in America working for his country
and all the Allies including ourselves is to be honored
in this country above any other representative of foreign
government.
Northcfe has succeeded, not with the aid of ANY
Office authority given him by people government but
BY HIS OWN INDIVIDUAL POWER.
His weapons have been newspapers which he has
ated His leadership also he has created for himself
He is not Tory Liberal Radical a Unionist. or
Home Ruler
HE is NoRTHCLIFFE THE INDIVIDUAL Patriotic
Engishman and as an INDIVIDUAL he has done for
England and consequently for the fight against
Germany than any other in Europenot excepting the
greatest of generals statesmen.
At all times, and in especially, the disagreeable
ungrateful duty is telling unwelcome TRUTH
In war; every is supposed to be hero every states
genius everything perfect-except the enemy.
Northcife from the day the started has been an
intensely concentrated observer And absolutely regardless
of everything, he has told THE TRUTH.
The mob threatened destroy him. and down his
newspaper buildings including that which houses his great
est treasure the London Times.
Newspapers and public that could agree nothing
else agreed in the beginning of the and for time
afterwards, that NoRTHCLIFFE MUST BE SUPPRESS
ed. NOrthcie about the only who did not agree
with this proposition He stuck his post educator
and NsTRUCToR-very grateful the British public
today, realizing that truth which only Northclie would
or could force upon them has been Englands salvation
When the English feet and army were un-
dsrtakng Constantinope what they could not finish
Northcte told the TRUTH about it. he hated but
the return of ships and from ConstantnOpe proved
When English soldiers in France were cut down in
heaps unable to fight back for lack ammunition North
c with intense savage earnesness said to the English
Government, GIVE YOUR MEN AMMUNITION DON'T
SEND THEM TO BE SHOT LIKE DOGS"
What Northcife said was Indignantly denied But as
the wounded Enghmen back to their homes where
they could tell the truth without censorship they told pr
vatey the story that Northce had been telling publicly
And Northciffes courage triumphed once more
On every question of the war affecting Great Britain
Northcife has STUDIED PROBLEMS HIMSELF AT
FIRST HAND He has been the trenches talking with
men and officers.
He has been in Ireland studying conditions there
As Peer of Great Britain he has his in the House
of Lords But he has content to sit there basng
in his grandeur letting the people that read his news
papers and look him for truth take care of themselves
He has KNOWN the truth, and he has TOLD the truth
the truth that Nothe told is the power that will
make England Free
If the King makes Northcife Duke-as he ought to
do if only to lend touch of democratic respecabty to
other -Northclie ought to take as his title 1.-The
Duke of Plain Truth Telling on his coat of arms with
the lions tigers unicons and other things in which Eng
sh noblemen delight he should have printed in good sized
type the Norhcie text Ye shall know the truth and
the truth shall make you free
The average in this country will much or
anything of Northce He does not parade about to be
