DARDANELLES FIASCO
BLAMED ON KITCHENER
He and Winston Churchill Scored by
British Commission.

By the International News Service.)
London, March s-Two of the men who
were England's idols early In the war
were hard hit today In the report Of the
investigating commission appointed to
fix responsibility for the disastrous cam
paign at the Dardanelles.
Lord Kitchener, former British war
minister, who was drowned, received the
most severe censure. Kitchener's delay
in sending troops to the Dardanelles was
a grave hindranoe to the success Of the
expedition. the commission reported.
Lord Kitchener was also blamed for dc
tating affairs Of the war once in oonnec-
ton with the expedition without relying
sufficiently upon the advice OF the gen
eral star This failure, the commission
held. resulted in confusion and inef-
ficiency.
Both Lord Kitchener and Winston
Churchill, former first lord of the ad-
miralty, were criticised for advocating a
purely naval attack on the Dardanelles
for this without thorough Investigation
Of the possibility of cooperation by land
forces. Responsible military and naval
advisers did not concur in their views,
the commission declared, and Churchfll's 8
views In this respect are said to have
been based on "half-hearted expert optn-
lon"

Plants Should Rest.

So far as known, no plant grows
continuously throughout the year;
therefore why should we seek to force
them into unnatural activity as are
so many of us guilty of doing every
year. Some plants, as nearly all bulbs,
corms,. rhizomes and tubers support,
will not be forced to remain active.
Tops will die and the underground por
ton become dormant or hibernate,
sleep, or whatever you wish to call this
blissful state Of rest. Of just what
value this rest-period in plants is we
do not know, but nature seems to de-
mand it, so we must grant that it is
an economic necessity. It must be that
some process takes place while growth
is dormant; the latter state does not
necessarily indicate complete function

BURIAL PLACE OF COLUMBUS
Bones Of Discoverer Of America Lie in
Ancient Cathedral In Santo
Domingo City.

Santo Domingo City.--The capital
Of the Dominican republic is a pretty
town of about 10000 inhabitants Of
low, fat-roofed houses, painted white,
pale blue and pink, and having that
bright, clean look which most sharply
distinguishes tropical towns from the
smoky cities of the North.
The capital is situated at the mouth
of a deep, narrow river, lying between
heavily-jungled banks, which serves as
a harbOr. The customs and steam
ship offices front upon the river and
the main city lies somewhat higher,
fronted by q high bluff, crowned with
an old fort, from which the American
flag is now flying.
The city has no sewerage or water
system, but is, nevertheless, clean,
healthy and attractive. It is set off
by Several shady plazas and contains
most famous of which is the great
cathedral in which lie the bones of
Christopher Columbus. OutWardly
this is an imposing pile, made Of rough
weathered stone, with grass and moss
growing in it's chinks and pigeons f1ut-
tering about its towers. Within, how
ever, it is a truly splendid edifice of
immense spaces, decorated with beau
tiful affairs and statues Of popes and
saints. 1t contains also a splendid
collection of jewels, which have been
donated by the pious during many
centuries; for this is one Of the oldest
church buildings in the western hemi-
sphere.
