With the beginning of the First World War David Lloyd George, as Chancellor, tried to ensure that the country's finances were in a state as to be able to pursue the war successfully. It became increasingly clear that the economic structures of British industry were not flexible enough to allow this to happen, so with his experience as the President of the Board of Trade Lloyd George did much to bring about the necessary changes in industry.
