IMPERIAL POLITICS.
LLOYD GEORGE ON IMPERIAL DEFENCE. THE GAME OF " BEGGAR MY NEIGHBOUR." United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright. (Received September 16, 9.30 a.m.) LONDON, September 15. The. Chancellor of tlio Exchequer, in an interview, stated that the expenditure on Dreadnoughts was necessary, but the necessity was artificial. Great Britain could not disarm amidst armed camps. When Britain piped, other nations refused to dance, and even misconstrued the invitation into an insidious design against their self-protection. If the game of "beggar my neighbour "was to be continued, Britain still had a naval loan to foil back upon, a recourse of which her competitors had long ago availed themselves.
