GEORGE IS
 HAILED AS TIE BEAN OF TIE HOUR
British Premier Has None of the Aristocratic Blood in
 His Veins.

The man of the hour in Great Bri- tain-the man whose personality, to- gether with that of President Wilson stands out above all others in the present titanic struggle, and upon whom Englishmen pin their faith to bring victory during 1918, is a little Welshman, David Lloyd George, true ''man of the people," without a drop of aristocratic blood in his veins. Lloyd George will be forty-fiye years old today, having been born in Man chester on Jan. 1T, 1863. His father was Q school teacher, and died when David was three years old. His moth CT was the daughter of a Baptist min- ister. The fathers name was William George, and the mothers Elizabeth Lloyd, and both family names have been perpetuated in the patronymic of their illustrious son.
 The future Premier of Great Bri- tain received the best part of his ear ly education in a cobbler's shop be- longing to his uncle, Richard Lloyd, a shoemaker in Welsh village. Young David was reared by this wor- thy man, who was well educated, and served as Campbellite Baptist preach CT on Sundays, while mending the footwear of the members of his con- gregation on week days, thus caring for both the souls and the soles of the people of his community.
 The flaming hatred of social injus- tiee imbibed from his uncle led Lloyd George to take up the study of law,

TRIBUTES PAID
 TO JUDGE WALSH
 BY BAR MEMBERS
Resolutions Read and Made Part of Record of Su-
 perior Court.

Tributes of respect to the memory of the late Judge Robert Jay Walsh of Greenwich. a former judge of the common pleas court and for many years a. practicing attorney of Fairfield county, were paid at a meeting of the Fairfield County Bar association, held in the superior court room today. Judge F. A. Hubbard of Greenwich presided at the meeting.
 Shortly after the death of Judge Walsh Judge Hubbard of Greenwich, Judge John R. Keeler of No-waIk, and Edwin L. Scofeld of Stamford, were named a committee to draw up. ap- propriate resolutions. This work was delayed by the illness of Scodsld, and his death last Monday made the report < tl.s committee this morning partic- ularly affecting.
 Judge Keeler related the circum- stance of the appointment of the com Infttee and then presented the resolu- tions reviewing the career of Judge walsh, the esteem in which he has been held by the members of the bar, and moved their adoption. It was carried by a rising vote. Judge Kee- Ter also pronounced a very feeling eulogy of Judge Walsh. whom he had known for 50 years. as Q schoolmate and later as an associate in the legal profession.
 At the opening of the court the res- olutions were presented to Judge Will uaIn M. Maltbie as coming from the

GERMAN PUBLIC
 IS TOLD BAKER
 PADDED FIGURES

London, Jan. Recommending on the statement made by Secretary of War Baker before congressional committee regarding war preparations. meine Zeitung of Berlin, says:
 ''The American secretary of war speaks of an American army in France. There is an American army in France, but it consists entirely of wood cutters, railroad men and doc tors, except two or three divisions whose precious lives are being spared in quiet places"
 "Mr. Baker speaks as if shortly there would be 100000 Americans in France. Can the United States spare such. a large number of men The answer is no, because a large part of the army must remain behind for the protection of the frontiers, the coasts, the colonies and for other duties of a political nature. The po- litical situation compeIs the United States to keep at home the greater portion of its army and the country can at the most put only 400,00O men into the European battle felds.''

in order that he might act as the spokesman for the downtrodden and the oppressed. His fiery eIoquence gained him a popularity which soon extended over the kingdom, and in due course Lloyd George became chancellor of the exchequer, loved by thousands, and equally hated by thousands. It is a matter of record that after an address in a hall at Bir- mingham the little WeIshman had to escape in a policeman's uniform. How he ever managed to e1ude the crowd in such a disguise is mystery, as British policemen are usually very large, and Lloyd George is very small.
 AS Minister of Munitions in the first war cabinet, Lloyd George was en- trusted with the gigantic task of or ganizing British industries on a war basis. When the Asquith cabinet went out, Lloyd George was called up- or as the strongest man in England, to form the present coalition cabinet, and under his supreme direction the Allies have grown stronger with each day.

MOTHERS IME OF NEGLECT $ STATED UNTRUE Friends of Dannenberg Boys State Woman Has Both
 Money andLand. -BOAIEHSLER IS PAL
 OF OSCAR IN CAMP Relates Subjects Which He Is
 Forced t0sStudy Until \ il at Night.

Fearful that the statement given the Bridgeport Times by Mrs. Dannen- berg, alleging that her two sons, Os- car and Alexander, both in the United States Army, neglected her, would hurt the career of the promising young officers, friends in great mum Der joined in denying the mothers charges of Restitution, and em- phatically stated that she possesses means to support herself comfortably and owns valuable real estate.
 According to friends who have been associated with the two soldiers ever since they were youngsters, the boys have had a rather hard time of it and have not lived in their mothers home for a number of years <
 As soon as the war started Alex. ander, who had gone to Chicago on business trip, enlisted in the En- gineers' Corps and soon worked his way to the grade of top sergeant. Os-7 car enlisted in the Coast Artillery, be- ing stationed at Fort Michiel, IN. Y, and in the competitive examination was the only man chosen out of his company for the officers school at Fortress Monroe.
 Mrs. Dannenberg, when relating her story in the offices of the Bridgeport Times, stated that both her boys were graduates of Yale, but friends of the family sa-r this statement is not cor rect. They claim that the boys att tended Yale, but owing to arguments raised by their mother were compell- ed to relinquish their course.
 Both boys are well known in Bridgeport where they are held in the highest respect. They were engaged in the real estate business and took a prominent part in the recent realty boom in this city. The boys and their friends cannot comprehend the reason for Mrs. Dannenberg ground less allegations.
 In a letter just received by friend Oscar Dannenberg enthusiastically describes his first experiences in the training camp in the following words:
 ."The men at the camp are the pick of the selected men of the country, all capable of batting 1000 per cent. The Plattsburgers would have to step some to keep up with them. My locker mate is the well known Dug Bomeisler, the all American end of the Yale team of a few years ago. "My course of study includes such simple subjects as trigonometric func- tions. barometric conditions, tide drift velocity, coordinate of trajectories, empirical formulaes of wind com ponents and many other subjects.
 q begin at 6:15 in the morning with lectures, then I study until II at night, when it's lights out and there's nothing to do until tomorrow"
