CONQUEST OF THE AIR.
LLOYD GEORGE'S LAMENT. ENGLAND FALLING BEHIND. (By Cable.—Press Association.—Copyright.) (Received 8.5 a.m.) LONDON, August 25. Mr Lloyd George (Chancellor of the Exchequer), interviewed in London, thought the experiments at Rheims were a great triumph for the Americans. The Wright machine was the most sure and dependable of all. With others there was always a half-nervous apprehension that they might descend at any moment. He added: "How I wish we were doing more towards this work, which may alter the history of the world."
