‘Welch Wizard' Will Seize Opportunity to Obtain Leadership in Labor Ranks, Is Growing Belief Among English Politicians, LONDON, June 4.—ls David Lloyd George, the “Weleh Wizard,” about to turn another political handspring that will land him again at the head of the British govrenment? After his extraordinary record in having led the coalition through war and post-war crises, does he plan to seize the undoubted opportunity to lead the British labor party into the victory that seems surely theirs within the next few years?

“We shall have a labor premier and a labor cabinet within five years," the labor party leaders say. Even the most conservative realize the probability of such an unprecedented government. Today there is a growing belief that Lloyd George may be Its head. Voice of I,ion Heard It is only in the last few weeks the voice of the lion has been heard again. Re-entering the area, he has made two quiet, but significant statements; 1. He will not show to the Baldwin government “that consideration" which, for reasons of the premier’s health, he afforded Bonar Law. He is going to attack. 2. He has urged the complete and unreserved recognition -of soviet Russia. A simple thing—but a step that would set Lord Curzon, Austin Chamberlain, and those who served under Lloyd George very much on edge. In political circles these two statements of the ex-premier are linked together, and the conclusion drawn is Lloyd George, ever the “opportunist,” is playing, sincerely but signifloally, to the labor vote. His coalition government finally crashed, but no one believes that Lloyd George is through with politics. The short, stocky, dominant little figure that cajoled, brow-beat, threatened, pacified, inspired and terrified tho parliaments of war cannot be wiped off the political stage by the mischance of an election. England watched, astounded, when ho retired, and for a long time said nothing. Rut that silence was ominous. England believes, and rightly, he will again thunder at Parliament, will shake his mane of white locks, sweep out his flowing phrases, gesture and storm across the benches of Parliament at a spellbound oppositon. May labor Next time, how* ,'er. that opposition may be the conservative or liberal benches. Lloyd George may be leading the labor side. The vote and power of the labor party is increasing. Royalty, w'orrlei •a bit, Invited labor leaders to dine, wishing to look at these men who boast they will yet lead Britain. Young collegians, men trained in the bast schools and masters of parliamentary logic, are in its ranks. In dealing with the English party, the government is not dealing with a group of political simpletons who can be handled at finger tips. There ore. on the labor benches of parliament today, long haired radicals. low' browed rough necks, and a group of the most brilliant, polished young statesmen in the House.
