Held to Blame

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 COM
mission appointed TO fix response
bility for the disastrous campaign
at the Dardanelles.
Lord Kitchener, former British
war minister. who was drowned. re-
Kitchener's delay in sending troops
TO the Dardanelles was a grave
hindrance to the success Of the ex-
peditiOn, the commission reported
Lord Kitchener was also blamed
for debating affairs OF the war office
in connection with the expedition
without relying sufficiently upon the
advice of the general staff This
failure, the commission held result
ed in confusion and inefficiency.
Both Lord Kitchener and Winston
Churchill. former first lord of the
admiralty. were criticized for advo-
eating a purely naval attack on the
Dardanelles forts without giving
thorough investigation Of the posi-
bility of cooperation by land forces.
Responsible military and naval ad-
visers did not concur in their views.
the commission declared, and
ChurchilPs view in this respect was
declared 10 have been based on
half expert opinion.
The commission, however. count
cred upon critics who declared Eng
fish lives and ships were wasted at
the Dardanelles without any benef-
cial result. The commission assert
ed that while the campaign to force
the Dardanelles failed, certain i'm
portant political advantages were
secured.
