General stopford, mentioned by General
Hamilton. has demanded that the war
office make an immediate investigation
of the suvla Bay failure, the Pail Mall
Gazette announced.
General Stoprord. who won honors in
Egypt and in the Boer War, was severely
criticised by General Hamilton in his
report on the British defeat at Suvla
Bay. He was relieved of command of his
division and returned to London.
THE division generals were informed
that in view of the inadequate artillery
support General Stopford did not wish
them to make frontal attacks on in
trenched positions" said General Hamil-
ton. in one section of his report. within
the terms of this instruction lies the root
of our failure to make use of the price
less daylight hours of the Sth of August" "
Hamilton also complained that stop
ford was moved by the objections of some
OF his divisional commanders to refrain
from pushing on against the Turks,
though that was the proper course.
