It was stated that the cause of Lord Northcliffe’s death was suppuration, or the pro- juetion of pus within the heart, which was followed by acute blood poison ing. The death of no other unofficial per- son could have made a deeper im- pression in England than that of Lord Northeliffe. The news was not > surprise, as the bulletins issued by the doctors for the last week platr.- indicated that their patient was dying. Lord Northeljtfe was by far the most noted figure in British journal- (sm, and the first question on every one's ips was as to what effect his ieath will have on the policies of the Times and his other newspapers whieb since the end of the war, hav: strongly opposed the Lloyd George aa ministration which the Northcliffe press supported threughout. News of. Northeltffe's decth wi: given out by the doctors who have been attending him, in this bulletin: “Viscount Northcliffe died at 10:12 o'clock. ‘The end was perfectly peace- ful." s The medical terms in giving the cause of Lord Northclitfe's death were ulcerative endocarditis, strept- ococoal septicemia and terminal syn- cope. WAS EDITOR AT AGE OF 17 YEARS. Viscouft Northcliffe, the son of an Trish barrister, became an editor at 17 years, owner and publisher of the London Times and Daily Mall, the moulder of public opinion, a man of powerful influence in the making and unmaking of British cabinets and who with David Lloyd George, con- tributed in a great measure to arous- ing England to more vigorous action in the war. He was created Baron of the Isle of Thanet in 1905 and made a vis- count in 1917 after he had served with distinction as head of the British mis- sion to the United States to consoll- ate British interests here during the war. To Viscount Northcliffe is ascribed the arousing of the British public to a knowledge of the fact that the Brit- ish army in France was insufficiently equipped with high explosive shells, that British guns on the French front were short of ammunition and that Lord. Kitchener, then secretar} of state for war, was sending the British gunners shrapnel while Sir John French as commander was.appealing for the same kind of high explosives that Germany was hurling over the in vast quantities This exposure has te: zed as one of the ontsh’ ic feats of the war. it resulted in appointment of David Lloyd * George as the first British minister of (Cintinued on Page Nine) character: ng journal- Glazer, Carlson and Schmidt.

Rail chiefs were on thelr way home, ‘ollowing the publication of their an- wor to President Harding’s peace of- er, and so far as they or the govern- ment were concerned, no further medi!- \tory step was in {mmedfate prospect. The reply of the raflroads to the prest tent’s offer was a “conditional accept ance” which fs regarded as almost cer tain to encounter the disapproval of the strikers ‘The conditions attached were that such men as were needed would be taken back fn their old places pending adjudication by the labor board of the niority issue. The ef. ect of the condition, it was pointed ut by union *, would be to leave the roads free to hire such strik ors as were wanted, tifrning down oth- ers permanently in favor of men who had joined the shop forces since the strike.
