Lloyd George Likely
To Be Election Victor
Tribune London Bureau

Copyright. 1918. New York Tribune Inc)
LONDON, Nov. 24.-Lloyd George
probably will be the victor in the forth
coming general elections in Great Brit
ain. His triumph is likely chiefly be-
cause of the constitutional dislike of
the English for "swapping horses while
crossing a stream"
This, however, does not exclude the
fact that personal opposition to the
Premier is growing.
There is general feeling Of regret
that the country is to be plunged into
fresh turmoil by the elections and that
the fighting men virtually are disfran-
chised.
The coalition, all but broken up now,
consists only of the Conservatives and
the personal followers of Lloyd George
among the Liberals who have received d
official blessing.
The election is likely to be one of
the bitterest of generations, for Labor,
the Radicals and the Irish have all
their passionate grievances against the
present government. Oldtime Liberals
see their seats designated as Coalition
Conservative, and their state of mind,
as result, cannot be called altogether
peaceful and conciliatory to the Prem
