MR LLOYD GEORGE
“ When Mr Lloyd George,” states the Daily Telegraph, “ advised Liberals to vote Socialist, his hope was to reproduce the results of the 1929 election, with himself holding the balance oi power. It was his steady support of the Socialist Government and its unrestrained expenditure that brought the country to the brink of ruin. If his October counsel had been followed by those to whom it was addressed there would have been an instant collapse in November, and his present contention that ‘the real value of the pound was never in real danger,’ and that the whole agitation was a ‘ramp ’ or * stampede,’ and that there was no fear of the pound sliding away as the mark and the franc had done a few years before, is a hopeless travesty of the facts.”
