In November 1924, he became ! First Lord of the Admiralty and re-introduced in a modified form the scheme for the construction of a naval base and dockyard at Singapore. He was called on to represent the Government during the fruitless negotiations with the miners in 1925 and in May 1920, was one of the Ministers who opposed the Premier's efforts to avert a general strike.

Lord Bridgeman WILS chief delegate at the Geneva Naval Con- ference between Britain, US, and Japan in 1927 which broke down owing to Anglo-American differen- ces regarding cruisers. Neverthe- less by Jan, 1928, Britain had dropped three cruisers from its programme-a saving of £5,500,- 000. In September, he announced) that he would not seek re-election, as for three years he had been suffering from arthritis whleh was' stendly getting worse.

At the dissolution in June, 1929, he was raised to the peerage as Viscount Bridgeman.j In Feb., 1932, he gave up his Lon- don "house" and retired to Shrop- shire.
