KITCHENER TO FIGHT
FOES TO FINISH; HAS
ASQUITH'S SUPPORT
British War Secretary Re-
fuses to Retire From Of
flee Under Fire-Backed
by Powerful "Trium-
virate" in Cabinet.

LONDON. May %.
Lord Kitchener has refused to retire
from the War Secretaryship under fire.
He had decided to fight his foes to the
finish. His friends declared today that
Kitchener had the full backing of
Premier Asquith, Foreign Secretary Grey
and Chancellor Lloyd-George, the power
full "triumvirate" of the Cabinet, and that
they had indorsed his intention of staying
in office.
1t was learned today that Kitcheners
conference with the Premier yesterday
was due to the organized newspaper at
tacks launched against the War Secre-
tary. The Premier told Kitchener that II
he desired another post 1t would be given
him, but that II he would retain the war
portfolio he would have the support of
his colleagues
Kitchener is reported to have replied
that at no time had he even considered
retiring unless the Premier desired him
to do so.
Premier Asquith today continued con-
ferences with various leaders over the
makeup of the new national cabinet"
Indications that the crisis might result
in the outbreak of a great political
squabble are disappearing and the final
Cabinet details probably will be worked
The attack upon Lord Kitchener cul-
minated In scathing editorial published
in the Daily Mail. Briefly, the charges
against the Secretary of State for War
are: -.
/. His self-advertising manner In con-
Quoting his office, wherein troops are
called for in his name and not in the
name of the country or the King
2. His insistence on the use of an
atiquated shrapnel for the forces in
France, useless in trench and entangle-
ment work, instead OF a modern high
power, large calibre she'll
3. His adhesion to the military tactics
which availed In Africa and Egypt.
The other great department around
which political cyclone is raging Is
OF course the Admiralty. There the Lib
eral party now seems Joined in opposi-
tion to Winston Churchill with even
greater fervor than has been shown by
1t for months.
The Globe announces that Lord Lans-
downe' leader OF the opposition in the
House of Lords, will enter the coalition
cabinet. The post he will fill has not vet
been decided.
