Lloyd George Presses Labor Aid in War Factories
David Lloyd George argues in the house that victory hinges on organized labor allowing recruitment of eighty thousand skilled workers and two to three hundred thousand unskilled labor for munitions plants. He warns that reducing foreign orders and boosting home production is essential to cut war costs and shorten the conflict. Labor leader James Henry Thomas supports guaranteed union rights and postwar status quo to sustain the effort.
