PLANTATION of the situation. 80
The war minister has been called to
the Near East by the serious situation
there, the important mission having to
do with a question of policy, it is said,
and not unlikely it win be he who will
decide the policy to he pursued by the
Allies in their attempt to meet the
Teuton and Bulgarian offensives.
1t is believed that prolonged stay
by Kitchener in the Balkans or Italy
or Greece will necessitate his resigna'
ton as war secretary. He would be
unable to carry on the pressing duties
of the office when action on 80 many
fronts is proceeding simultaneously.
Lord Derby, now head of the active
recruiting campaign, is suggested to
succeed to the war portfolio in the
event that Kitchener finds himself un
able to leave the Balkans for some
time. Lord Derby has held a number
of important public posts, among then
' heing financial secretary to the war of

retary to Lord Roberts. From 1908 tC
