Churchill Turns on His Critics in Parliament
London November 16 Former Cabinet Member Churchill in the House of Commons defended his conduct as Admiralty head and resignation reasons. He blamed delays at Antwerp on himself and Lord Kitchener and the French government while asserting the Dardanelles campaign warranted extreme measures. He said official documents would vindicate him regarding Craddock’s fleet loss and defended Admiralty decisions as sound under advisers.
