NEWSPAPERS DISCUSS GALLIPOLI REPORT.
SCATHING COMMENT ON OFFICIAL BUNGLING ADVICE BY EXPERTS NOT SOUGHT. Australian and N.Z. Cable Association. (Received March 10,. 9.k> a.m.) LONDON, March 9. Comment on the Dardanelles Commission's report is of the most scathing character, though there is a variety of opinion as to apportioning the blame to individuals. It is generally considered that the report sheds a most disagreeable light on the War Council' discussions. Attention is mainly directed to the lack of systematic procedure, also to.the ambiguous nature of experts' status at discussions. Most of the newspapers blame Mr Asqnith for not insisting that experts should give their views fully and frankly. Home are not disposed to accept the censure of Lord Kitchener, pointing out that he might have been justified in the delay in sending nut the 29th Division. »
