British statesman David Lloyd George served as Prime Minister of the Wartime Coalition Government during the First World War and was a leading figure in the Paris Peace Conference of 1919. Considered to be one of the greatest prime ministers of the twentieth century, Lloyd George asserted, "There are certain indispensable qualities essential to the Chief Minister of the Crown in a great war. . . . Such a minister must have courage, composure, and judgment. But a war minister must also have vision, imagination and initiative—he must show untiring assiduity, must exercise constant oversight and supervision of every sphere of war activity, must possess driving force to energize this activity, must be in continuous consultation with experts, official and unofficial, as to the best means of utilising the resources of the country in conjunction with the Allies for the achievement of victory. If to this can be added a flair for conducting a great fight, then you have an ideal War Minister."
