BRITISH IN FRANCE
'SLUFFING" WORK
Member Tells Lords Officers Get to
Jobs Late in Morning Because
Up Late Playing Bridge.
WOMEN ARE AT HEADQUARTERS

LONDON, Nov. 17.-Charges o.
incompetency and neglect of their
work we're brought against the Brit
ish staff in France by Baron st.
Davids in the House of Lords this
evening when he asked the govern
ment whether its attention had been
called to the reports alleging that
during the recent fighting there had
been many complaints as to failures
of the staff work.
Lord st. Davids asserted that men
had been added to the staff for no
military reasons who ought to be in
the trenches and that he had been
told that the British headquarters
staff was five or six times as large
as that of General Joffre, the French
ommander-in-chlef. 1t had been
stated, he continued. that women
visited headquarters in France and
he asked whether the government
defended their presence there.
Up Late Playing Bridge.
The people were sending their sons OH
to fight under the direction Of men who
he declared, were living at headquarters
IN vast numbers and could not get early
to their offices because they were up late
playing bridge.
1T Is about time" said Lord st
Davids. that the men were given fai
chance. More than once the troops hav'
broken the German lines but, owing t
bad staff work, the whole thing fel
through. Many lives have been sacrificed
owing to muddling in high places"
The marquis of Crewe, lord privy seal
replied that the allegations that success
at Loos had been missed owing to thu
failure to bring up reserves at the RICH
time was the subject of an inquiry be
tween the highest authorities that coulC
\ be invoked.
Baron Newton, who said ne was unable
to disclose the number of the British
stat, defended it as did Viscount Haldane
the former secretary for war.
Country Has Suffered.
Lord Haldane declared that Lord ST
Davids had launched his attack withou
adequate informerion. 1T is true" h
said, that the country has suffere'
owing to the want Of an organized gen
eral staff. Nevertheless there has been
evolved a general staff of the highes
order. To say that the work Of the stat
is a failure is to say something which 8
very far from the truth. AS for Fielt
Marshal French he is up at 6 o'clocl
in the morning"
The marquis OF Crewe said that from
his knowledge of Field Marshal Frencl
he thought it exceedingly unlikely that h
would submit to having persons foroeu
upon his personal staff Lord Crewe hal
no hesitation in saying that unless womei
had business at headquarters they ough
