THE RIVAL LEADERS
ASQUITH IRRECONCILABLE
LIBERAL M.P.'s FAVOUR LLOYD
GEORGE.
(United Prew Association. —Copyright.) (Reuter'i Telegram.)
LONDON, Bth June.
The Liberal Parliamentary Party split between the Lloyd Georgian and the Oxfordian sections has resulted in a meeting in the House of Commons at which 33 were present. A letter was read from the Earl of Oxford saying that nothing had happened to alter the views he had recently expressed criticising Mr. Lloyd George's attitude during the strike. A motion that Liberal members of the House of Commons deprecated the publicity given to the leaders' differences, and hoped for the restoration of unity, was carried by 20 votes to 10, after an amendment to delete the first part had been rejected by 20 votes to 12. The voting thus favoured the Lloyd Georgians.
