LLOYD GEORGE.
SEEKS ALLY
BY F. A. WRAY
international News Service

LONDON, Dec. pa Fascinating
political Irritation is proceeding be-
tween Lloyd George and Ramsay
acDonald, both ex-prime ministers
Of Britain.
Both are suffering from want
OF allegiance on the part OF their
following. And although one repre-
sents liberalism and the other labor.
their respective viewpoints do not
materially diverge.
Lloyd Georges supporters in the
House Of Commons number nOm1i.
naIly about thirty-two. But he can
only depend on about twelve Of
these. The others are untrust-
worthy because they disapprove of
his new land policy.
In fact, Lloyd Georges party
might really be said to consist of
one-the one being himself. But
Lloyd George himself is worth
many. And he holds q strong
weapon. When he was prime min
lister. and undisputed master Of the
commons, he gathered together a
strong war chest. All the war mil.
lionaires whom he raised to wealth
and office contributed lavishly to 1t.
And he still holds the keys.
He has told the rest OF his party
that, unless they choose to follow
him on his new land policy, then
no money will be available from
his stronghold except for his own
political purposes. Hence, Lloyd
George is really a party In himself.
And remaining in the background
never was his long suit.
On the other hand, Ramsay Mac
Donald has no money from any
source, and his band Of followers
are weakened by the indiscretions
who have leanings. toward Com
munism and rebel against his au-
thority.
If their forces were united, un-
der the name of the Peoples
Party or any title that appealed
to both. then there would be q
good chance OF their being returned
to office at the next election.

Carriers and newsboys Of The

last night at the Washington Audi
torium as the guests at the regular
performance of Blackstone, the

The newsboys, with their band,
gathered outside the Washington
Auditorium and regaled the neon.
ing audience with a concert that
included a number Of appropriate
Christmas carols.
For the performance Of Black
stone, the newsboys had seats in q
group on the orchestra floor and
they were among the most eager Of
the volunteer committees to the
stage for a closeup view OF the
magician's tricks.
When Blackstone put one of his
assistants in a cataleptic trance
and then caused her to float in the
air seemingly without support, the
boys Joined the first rush to those
to the stage to see how the trick
was done. They were further
amazed when Blackstone pulled
away INC CONSItuS anu the SlFt Was
found to have vanished in thin air.
Blackstone went through his en-
tire repertoire Of more than 100
tricks, including the vanishing
horse and the rope tying featS. The
big thrill of the evening for the
newsies was the conjuring up of a
real live Santa Claus who went
through the audience distributing
presents, including a numher Of
live Dummies.

Dark clouds are shadowing the

There is a growing conviction
that the plight of Germany. caused

the breakdown OF every branch Of

turn to radicalism. which is being
urged on all sides by the COM

The German government. 1t Is
