The society based it's action on the
ground that the physician was not

was merely the result of his decision

KITCHENER IS BLAMED
CHURCHILL HITS WAR sEcRE.
TARY IN SPEECH.
Fixes Blame for Failure Of Two Expe-
ditions-WhoIe Cabinet Approved
Dardanelles Venture.

London. Nov. 17.-Winston Spencer
Churchill. former first lord of the Brit.
ish admiralty, against whom more bit.
ter criticism has been launched than
any other man In the English govern
ment since the war began, made his
speech in defense on Monday In the
house OF commons.
Mr.. Churchill put full responsibility
for the disastrous Antwerp expedi.
ton upon Lord Kitchener, the secre-
tary of state for war. and the French
government.
The former first lord of the ad-
miralty also denied personal RESPONSE
bility for the Dardanelles enterprise.
The proposition to send an expedi-
ton to the Dardanelles to open up
the way to Constantinople was pro
foundly. maturely and deliberately con-
sidered." declared Mr.. Churchill.
1t has been charged that Mr..
Churchill acted too quickly and too
much upon his own initiative in send.
ing the expeditions to Antwerp and
the Dardanelles.
AS to the Antwerp enterprise. Mr..
Churchill said:
The idea Of sending a relieving
army to save Antwerp from capture
by the Germans originated with Lord
Kitchener and the French govern
ment. That the expedition arrived
too late to save the Belgian city was
not my fault"
Mr. Churchill declared that he al
ways consulted the first sea lord OF
the admiralty before making any on
cial move.
Following Churchilrs sensational
speech Sir Arthur Markham made the
most violent attack on Earl Kitchener
yet heard:
Markham told members OF the COM
mons he was convinced Kitchener
was responsible for both the Antwerp
and Dardanelles plumbers" and that
he also was guilty of Withholding in
formation. Il am convinced" added
Sir Arthur. that while Kitchener. who
accepts no advice. remains at the war
office we will not win this war"
