30000 British War Horses to Be Killed in Mesopotamia
London July 18 The Colonial Secretary Winston Churchill announced in the house of commons that 30 000 army horses in Mesopotamia will be killed as they cannot be brought home at prohibitive cost. The horses are heavy draft types with no local use and would require imported fodder. Shipping alone costs 49 to 50 pounds per horse plus wages making return unfeasible. The War Office says humane, scientific disposal is better than leaving them to natives who would neglect them.
