From _The New Statesman's_ comment on Mr. LLOYD GEORGE'S Paris speech.

"He does try to be Biblical sometimes. In the Paris speech he used

the unnatural word 'yea' twice. Each time it gave one shudders down

the back."

No doubt next time, in view of our obligations to U.S.A., the PRIME

MINISTER will say "Yep."
