LLOYD GEORGE IS CENTER OF i'S EYES Whether British Premier to Fall as Result of Turkish Developments is Question Now. CONFERENCE THURSDAY EXPECTED TO DECIDE Chamberlain Standing by Leader Conservatives May Stand by Also IvONDON. Oct. 17. (By the ssociated Press) Whether Pre- aicr Lloyd George, whose admin titration has long outlasted the administrations of all the great tatesmen converned in the Ver ailles treaty, and the making of peace, will fall as a secondary effect of Mustapha Kemal's vie tory in Anatolia, still hangs on the result ' of Thursday's meeting of the Unionist members of com mons. s In all political quarters in Loa don today there was a state of feverish activity, meetings and consultations ocoupying the en tire day. i M.niter Returns The prime minister himself re turned to town and besides con suiting with the members of his cabinet, presided this " evening aver a large meeting of Liberal Ministers, under-secretaries, party whips and others. No report of tne proceedings nas been issued but it is supposed Mr. Lloyd George desired to as certain how far he could still de pend on support of the Liberal wing of the coalition in the com ing developments and in the ev ent of conservative revolt against his leadership proving dangerous. Chamberlain Loyal Opinion tonight seems to be veering toward the belief that the rebellious Conservatives will at the last moment recoil before the prospect of breaking with Mr. Lloyd George, who. clearly still retains the support of Mr. Cham berlain, and that the latter may secure a majority at the Thursday meeting. It is understood that should the Carlton meeting vote against Mr. Chamberlain, neither the Earl of Balfour nor Mr. Bon ar Law would undertake to form a Conservative ministry should Mr. Lloyd George resign. May Dissolve Parllmcnt 1 UB P-"i-i The political correspondent of the Central News claims to be able to state positively that if Mr Chamberlain emerges successful ly from -Thursday's meeting at the Carlton club, Mr. Lloyd George will at Leeds on Saturday an nounce the immediate dissolution of parliment.
