an important victory. Reinforcements
were not hurried into battle and the
tim line Of men who charged first
against the Turkish positions could not
hold out indefinitely without support.
For this reason, 1t has been frankly
stated by the British government that
the Sulva Bay engagement was dis
NAL failure.
The persistent hesitation thus shown
to exist among British officers is being
attributed in London to faulty staf
work This without doubt is true.
The chief faults Of the staffs are ap-
parently refusal to think rapidly and a
failure to meet quickly the new condi
tfons that constantly arise as every
great battle develops. The British
stats are capable of planning battles
admirably in advance but thereafter
they depend too much on luck and
decentralization OF the enemy.
Lord Kitchener's encouragement OF
staff work when he became minister
of war, probably has been an import
ant contributing force in causing the
stats to regard their responsibilities
less seriously than they ought. The
Loos Investigation may result in large
reforms in which Lord Kitchener can
