LLOYD GEORGE I'LL;
CANCELS SPEECH

ASQUITH GAINS STRENGTH
Bu Associated Press

London, Nov. 1.-Mr. Lloyd George
has developed n sore throat and on tn"
advice of his physician, Lord Dnwson'
has abandoned his engagement to speak
at Bristol tomorrow.
Lord Dawson said today that a few
days rest were absolutely essential for
the former Prime Minister. 1t is un-
derstood, however. that his indisposi-
tlcn is not serious.
The chipftains of the Conservative
Party, led by Prime Minister BOnar
Law, and the national Liberals. under
the banner of Lloyd George. were still
undecided today as to whether they
would really spread the war; against

the matter would be thrnshcd out again.
today.
Meanwhile the political gossips who
vent their idcna upon readers of morn
ing papers are noising 1t about that
Lloyd George is not so keen for re-
rriaals against the Tories as he used
to Be.
For ono thing. these writer's point
out, the former Prime Minister'S party
is not the only one capable Of throwing
reserve candidates into the scrap

George hasn't built up such large
number Of local organizations as have
his opponents.
Some of the papers think his threat
to ''spread the war; is only bluff
anyhow.
But his journalistic champion. the
Daily Chronicle. contends that Lloyd
George really has the men and the
means to use them and that he is
simply holding back in the hope Of
returning sanity elsewhere"
The Chronicle reports hot feeling
among the Lloyd Georgeians over the
attitudes of the die -hnrds and Free
Liberals who are opposing the National
Liberals. 1t accuses them of petty
spite. intolerance and behavior both
shabby and vindictive.
