MR LLOYD GEORGE ANSWERS LORD GREY.
HIS DECLARATION WAS “RATHER SHABBY." (United Press Assn.—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.) * (Received January 21, 11.30 a.m.) RUGBY, January 20. Mr Lloyd George, speaking at the National Liberal Club, said little in reply to the recent declaration of Viscount Grey that the Liberal Council, of which Viscount Grey was chairman, had no confidence in Mr Lloyd George's leadership and at the next election would fight under its own organisation and its own fund. Mr Lloyd George described the declaration as rather shabby and added: “1 would again appeal to Lord Grey not to discourage the party at a time when it is really making headway. I believe honestly that if he was left alone, he would respond to that appeal.” Mr Lloyd George spoke of the resoonsible position in which his part}' stood. It was the party holding the balance in the present Parliament, and he claimed that so far it had been worthy of its responsibility. He emphasised. however, that it was an independent body with a will of its own, which it meant to exercise.
