SIR EDGAR SPEYER.

Answer to Naturalization Revocation Committee.

Sir Edgar Speyer has replied to the charges made by the Natur- alisation Revocation Committee which decided upon his denatur- alisation.

He characterises the charges of disloyalty during the war N trivial, grotesque and un- righteous, asserts that the pro- goeding were the culmination of years of political persecution, and declares that the Committee reached unjust concluàions on finsufficient evidence.

Finally he oballenges the Government to paint to any real evidence in support of the monstrous conclusions” of the rupert.

In reference to attempts, which Jare being made to drag the name of Mr. Asquith into the Speyer: affair, it should be emphasised that Mr. Asquith's letter to Sir Edgar in 1915, acquitting him of disloyalty to the Crown, wWHE written before the alleged took place.

In the course of his reply to the Commitree, Sir Edgar Speyer says: "Lest my silence be mis- construed, I propose, in self- defence, to exhibit in their true | |light the origin, history and pur- pose of the proceedings so far as is possible in so limited a space. The decision, he says, is based on:‡
