It is no disparagement of the late M. Georges Leygues to say that his brilliant carcer as Minister of Mar- ine came as a surprise to his friends. I am told that when he first took the Marine portfolio. three years after the Arinistice, he was regard ed as a "safe" man, who could be relied upon to do nothing revolu tionary,

Yet in a few years he had revolu tionised the Ministry of Marine and the French Navy with it.
