BRITAIN LEADERS-No. 1 Arthur Greenwood

-Minister

Without

Portfolio

A DECISIVE moment in Arthur

Greenwood's life came when ho was 40 years old. Perhaps it was a decisive moment also for millions of other peoplc.

Certain it is that had he not taken the step he took then he would not now have been in the War Cabinet, would not have been one of British de- mocracy's great leaders, and would not have been helping to fashion policy in the greatest crisis not only of his own country but of the world.

Twenty years ago (and the amazing vitality and "aliveness" of the man make it difficult to realise that he is now 60) he turned his back on what most people thought were dazzling pro- spects for him in the Civil Service and, instead, joined the headquarters staff of the Labour Party.

Many of the materially- minded almost threw up their hands in despair. Here was a man approaching the prime of life. possessing great gifts and given apparently great. opportunities.

There had opened out for him a pleasant vista of comfort and security. The smooth things of life lay waiting for him to pick up. Why did he let thein He? The answer to thal reveals the very essence of

of Arthur Greenwood who became M.I'.

MP for Nelson and

Cola in 1922, and has represented Wakefickt since 1933. It was sim- met up unly the other day, in a phrase or two used by a friend of his: "There has always been, and still is, too great a flame in him for the

pleasant things to count Just because they are pleasant.“

The Bome! There is the key to "Arthur" or "A.G.." as his in- numerable friends variously enll

hh.. Ach matter of facl,, it is ex- tremely doubtful whether he would have made a good civil servant.

The earlier career of this cours- geous and comradely man must be briefly sketched. He was born in Leeds, became a pupil teacher, won a scholarship at Manchester University, where he studled science and took his B.Sc. Studied #lao history and economics, and be- came head of the department deal- in with economies at Hudders feld Technical College, and Lec- turer in economics al Leeds Uni- versity.

He came on from that to build up a reputation in Lon- don after the Great War on matters concerning recon- struction, relations between employers and employed, adult education, profiteering, Trusts, health questions. In addition, he took charge of re- search for the Labour Party.

-When Ramsay MacDonald. formed the first Labour Govern- ment in 1024, he was Parliamen- tary Secretary to the Ministry of Health. There was general sur- prise that he was not Minister. His loyally showed itself then, and he worked unceasingly and suc- cessfully in the Labour Govern- ment of 1929, he was the Minister, but if he had been appointed Par- linmentary Sceretury again he would still loyally have taken it,
