LLOYD GEORGE’S STATEMENT. -iY CAULK—PRESS ASSOCIATION —COPYRIGHT (Received Dec. 22, 11.50 a.m.) LONDON, Dee. 27.

He claimed it had already forced the Government to. reveal prematurely their nefarious designs in the fiscal system. There was still a chance that this timely exposure would modify the evils contemplated. . He added ‘that land values constituted a formidable barrier to reform and must be treated drastically. The privileged legalised avarice of land owners in the neighbourhood of cities was responsible for much hideous congestion and misery in the towns. Liberalism alone could solve the vital problems associated with the best use of lands, whether town or countrv.
