GALLIPOLI CRITICS
APPEAL BY LORD KITCHENER’S SECRETARY. Sir George Arthur, who was private secretary to Earl Kitchener, and is collecting material for the biography, addressed the following letter to the EngClub, Pall Mall, S.W., March 9th, 191 L Sir,—The report of the Bardaneues Commission criticises Lord Kitchener s judgment as to the expedition. las chief witnesses to this point Lord Kitchener himself, and his personal Military Secretary, Colonel Fitzgerald, can unhappily no longer be heard. This is not the time, and it is certainly not my place, to make any comment: but I would submit that when the full story of Lord Kitchener’s share in the conduct of the war is published, further light may be thrown—so far as he is concerned —on this episode in the career of the man to whose foresight and courage the preservation of this Empire may be said to be due.—l am. your obedient servant, GEORGE AETHER.
