He himself had told Mr Lloyd George that he wished to consult the Cabinet and would let him have an answer the same afteraoon. The Cabinet were given to understand that the publication of Mr Lloyd George's Memorandum would probably take place on Saturday next, July 13th. After some discussion the Cabinet agreed — (a) That the Prime Minister should be authorised to inform Mr Lloyd George that-there was no objection to the publication of his Memorandum; (b) That, with a view to publication of the Government's reply very shortly after that of Mr Lloyd George*s Memorandum, the following procedure should be carried out:­ (i ) The Chancellor of the Exchequer should arrange for the circula­ tion of the draft reply to the C ab in et as s o on as pos s lb 1 e: (ii.) A Special Meeting of the Cabinet should be held on Monday next, July 15th. at 5.30 p.m. (o) That the Government *s reply should be published not as a White Paper to Parliament, but direct to the Press, after which it would be published through the usi.-al channels in pamphlet form: (d) -hat the Chancellor of the Exchequer should take appropriate action with regard to the Press. SPECIAL AREAS. 3. The Minister of Labour informed, the Cabinet Reports of that the Report of the Commissioner for Special Commissioners. Areas (England and Wales) would be ready for (Previous publication on Wednesday of next week. The Prime Reference: Cabinet 47 Minister had referred this Report to the Depressed (54), Con­ clusion 13.) Areas Committee, but the Minister of Labour thought that the pres entatlon of the Report to Parliament FA, 37 (5i could not wait for the conclusions of the Committee on its recommendations, Without taking any decision on the date of publication, the Cabinet agreed — (a) That the Minister of Labour should circulate proofs of the Report to the Cabinet before the coming week-end: (b) m hat a Meeting of the Depressed Areas Committee should be held on Monday next, July 15th, at IS Moon: (c) That the question should be considered by the Cabinet at the Special Meeting on Monday, July 15th, at 5,30 p.m,, referred to in the previous Conclusion: (d) m hat as the Minister of Agriculture and Fisheries would be engaged in the House of Commons and might be unable to attend the Cabinet, the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries should, be available if the Cabinet desired his presence to advise them on any point connected with the Agricultural aspects of the question.

The Cabinet approved the proposals of the Chancellor of the Exchequer. CIVIL AVIATION 4. The Chancellor of the Exchequer informed COMMITTEE. the Cabinet that the General Purposes Committee had f- R^(yj^s; agreed on the establishment of a Committee to consider the question of aerodromes for civil aviation. The question of the Chairman, however, was stil l outstanding. He and the Secretary of State for Air had. now reached agreement on the subject, and he asked the Cabinet to approve their joint nominee. The Cabinet agreed — That Sir Henry Maybury should be appointed Chairman of the Civil Aviation Commiitee. THE BOLIVIA' 5.

The League of Nations elus ion 4 .) Committee had now suggested that it should, be with­ drawn for Paraguay also. He asked the Cabinet to give him authority to withdraw the embargo if he were satisfied that other nations had withdrawn it. The Cabinet agreed — (a) To authorise the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs to withdraw the embargo on the exportation of arms to Paraguay if he were satisfied that other nations had taken similar action: (b) To authorise the President of the Board of Trade to approve applioa­ tions for licences for the exportation of arms and munitions of war to Paraguay, after consultation with the Foreign Office.

UNIVERSITY MICROFILMS Sir, in Cambria are we born, and gentlemen: Further to boast were neither true nor modest, Unless I add we are honest. Belarius in Cymbeline. Act V, sc. v. PREFACE In 1927 Lloyd George became the recognized leader of the Liberal party with the stated aim of making it over into a viable third party. Time and again he averred that the Liberal mission was to hold the balance— as had Parnell's Irish Nationalists— between the two major parties in Parlia­ ment. Thus viewed in these terms the Liberal revival of the late 1920's must be accounted a success for at no time did the Liberals expect to supplant the Labour party as the party of the left. The subtitle reads: "A Study in Political Communi­ cation " because communications theory provided the starting point for this study. But communications theory is not im­ posed in any arbitrary fashion, for Lloyd George and his fol­ lowers were obsessed with exploiting modern methods of commu­ nications.

  • The British Government and the Rhineland Crisis”
    “The British Government and the Rhineland Crisis” Benjamin Thomas Reynolds Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Master of History (by Thesis Only) October 2010 School of Historical Studies The University of Melbourne Abstract The purpose of this thesis is to re-examine the historiographical debate concerning the response of the British Government to the German remilitarization of the Rhineland on 7 March 1936 in light of the recent resurgence of ‘traditional’ interpretations of the crisis. The traditional view argues that the Rhineland Crisis represented an opportunity for Britain and France to prevent the Second World War by using their armed forces to intimidate Hitler. By not opposing the weaker Wehrmacht in 1936, the British and French response, it is argued, encouraged Hitler’s later foreign policy demands. Despite ‘revisionist’ writers having uncovered evidence that Hitler was not prepared to withdraw his forces from the Rhineland and that efforts to do so would have provoked a war in Europe in 1936, the revisionist view has enjoyed a recent resurgence. This thesis investigates Britain’s social, economic, military and diplomatic situation between 1919 and 1936 and explores how these affected Britain’s response to the Rhineland Crisis. The thesis makes extensive use of archival records, especially the minutes from the Cabinet meetings held during the crisis. My analysis of this material leads to the conclusion that because of the social and economic crises of the inter- war years and the risk of simultaneous conflicts with other powers Britain did not possess sufficient armed forces to risk war with Germany in March 1936; the efforts of the Cabinet to reach a negotiated settlement can therefore be regarded as justified.

  • Lloyd George, 1931 – 1945
    THE WONDERFUL WIZARD AS WAS LLOYD GEORGE, 1931 – 1945 David Lloyd George enjoyed an unusually long political afterlife following his ejection from the premiership in October 1922.1 Only 59 years old when he left Downing Street, he remained a member of the House of Commons for twenty-two years before accepting a peerage in the autumn of 1944. In the history of the twentieth- century premiership only Arthur Balfour exceeded Lloyd George’s experience, resigning as Prime Minister in December 1905, but remaining active in politics until shortly before his death in 1930. David Dutton tells the story of Lloyd George’s last years. 54 Journal of Liberal History 77 Winter 2012–13 THE WONDERFUL WIZARD AS WAS LLOYD GEORGE, 1931 – 1945 alfour’s later career arithmetic, despite their relega- a largely helpless observer of the included a ministerial rein- tion to third-party status in 1922. events which led to the formation Bcarnation.

It proposes a social-historical approach that is based on extensive archival research of documents such as local newspapers, town council minutes, education authority minutes and Scottish Office records. As an empirical and historical study it focuses attention on the social-historical circumstances of cinema exhibition and reception as proposed by New Cinema History.
