Lloyd George Hope* To Keep
Speaking Date On Tonight
In City Of Chicago
(By Asnciated Press)
Chicago, Oct. 17.—David
Lloyd George has cancelled all
engagements for today but
hopes to keep his speaking en-
gagement tonight at the Inter-
national ampitheatre «t the
stock yards. Owing to a
continuance of a slight tem-
perature his doctors ordered
him to remain in bed and rest
the greater part of the day.
He has a cold aggravated by
laid to waste, railroad and
highway traffic paralized and
public utility services demor- .
alized. The flood waters here of criminal assault,
were rapidly receding and
most of the refugees returned
to their homes. It is estimated
that not more than 1,000 are
now under the care of relief
agencies.
