LONDON, October 11L.—Never since the fall of his government has the|n name of Lloyd George been on the tongues of so many Britons as today. Politiclans are conjuring with it while the spectacular in his makeup has been brought home once again to more or less average individuals who are impressed by the long accounts in the London newspapers of his recep: tion in the United States and Canada The men who believed a few months | the former premier hldi ago that fallen to_the political depths are be- ginning to ask themselves what they may expect next, now that his star SALVAGED MILLIONS FROM OLD WAR SHELLS By the Associated Press. EW YORK, October 11.—Francis Pickett, known as the “salvage of Great Britain, arrived on the steamship Majestic with his wife vesterday for an extended visit in the United States. Pickett is head of ¥. N. Pickett & Son, Inc., the remainder of the firm being his eight-year-old son. After the war, when the British govern- ment was about to dump $75,000,000 worth of munitions into the sea rather than continue having soldiers blown to pieces in salvage operations, Pickett bought the lot for £3.000,000: He cut up bombs and small arms ammunition, salvaging 600,000 tons teel scrap in the process. He also vas credited with inventing a means of cutting up old shells, and remov- ing explosive without danger to workmen. He lost the tip of an ear in an explosion, however, before com- pleting the inventio : Pickett also salvaged §: worth of munitions for Fran Belgium, maintaining sixteen ammu- nition dumps there, besides thirty two in England.

Belng Discussed Seriously. Lloyd George's reception synchro- es very well from hls standpoint with political events at home. The Baldwin regime comes under a hotter fire every day, which may be the ex- plantation of why the Welshman waited 8o long before definitely making up his mind to take the trip, at first scheduled for a much earlier date. At any rate, he is being discussed seri- ously again, and, while naturally at this time no positive future can be mapped out for him, several possibili- ties are going the rounds where poli- ticlans meet. He seems to be re- gaining popular favor and on his re- turn, with parliament meeting in No- vember, some Imteresting develop- ments may be expected. It’the present difficulties among the conservatives should result/in draw- ing even an obscure line between the difterent sections of the party. the prominence given Lloyd George on his going across the Atlantic may be the backbone of an interesting politi- cal fight which has possibilities of far-reaculprimpoEascs in world at- airs.
