David Lloyd George has not been

Lloyd Georges speech before the

the work that has been done since
the ministry Of munitions was organ

More war factories have been erec-

Lloyd Georges complaint. He de-

100000 unskil,ed laborers and only
fifteen percent OF the machinery Is
being operated by night shifts.
The situation thus revealed Is made
still more serious by Lloyd George's s

their trade union restrictions to per.
NIT technically unskilled men to do
skilled work and to allow the output
to be speeded up by fast workers. 1t
