Htandlng the evacuation of this for

an unbroken fighting front on both

Thus far tho Austrians and Germans

Winston Churchill Defends His
Course as First Lord of Admiralty
Says Fleet's Record Speaks for
Itself Victory Such as War Hs
Not Yet Seen Predicted.
DUXDKI, Seotlnnd, June :. Win
slon Sneneer Churchill, I'urmetly first
lord of tho iitliiiinill.v,"u'ho is olutn-
cellor of the duchy of KniietiHtcr Tn
tho coalition cabinet, arrived today al
Dundee, which he represents in the
house- of commons. He wns received
enthusiiislically ut u meeting of bin
coiislitucnK He told them he did not
come to make explanations or indulge
in reproaches or iceriininntions, for
the only thing lie cnied about was the
waging of it successful wnr on the
enemies of Ureal Jiritaiu.
"For four years I havo borne heavy
responsibility, being, neenrding to .'lie
tiiue-houored language of my patent,
icxiHiu-ilile to the crown mid purlin-
ineiit for nil business of the iidinir-
ulty," Mr. Chiiniberlaiii said. "When
I say resooiihihle, 1 was responsible
in the sense that 1 would have to hear
the blame of evervthinir that occurr
ed. These have comprised the mo.it
iniimrtunt period of our naval his
tory, u period of picparntioti for war,
n period ol vigilance and mobiliza
tion. Has Done Ills llest
"I havo done mv best. The arch
ives ut the admiralty will show tho
nail I ldaved in nil the great triu'w-
notions that have Inken place. To
them I look for my deteusc.
"I look nlho to the general naval
Mtuatioii. Tho terrible dangers ut
the beginning of tho wnr are over.
The seas haw been swept clear. K'v
orythiug is in perfect order. Ncnrly
everything has been foreseen. Wo
have taken the measure of our foe
and havo onlv to go lorward with
confidence."
Mr. Churchill tuhlud there were two
statement he wished to make about
the operations at tho Dnidiinollos.
llouvv losos must be expected on
hind and sea. The fleet employed
there was composed ot a suiplus ol
wurnliips after all other needs had
been provided for.
"Those who mipposc Karl Kitch
ener embarked on these operations
without thorium h v and enrotully
considering everv requirement in re
lation to the army m lriuice and
Plunder tire not oulv mistaken, hut
die piesumptiious," he continued. "In
looking at our losses fairly nirl
xqunrcly we must not forget the pne
for which we are contending.
('mil Victory Is Near
"The forcos aro within u few miks
of n ictor" such as this war has not
seen, n victory" which, when it comet.,
will make amends for all."
Mr. Churchill said he did not Ihiuk
the ne wniiti iters should lit tack to-
hponsiblo lenders of the nation .it
home or in the field or publMi any
thing calculated to make bad blood.
If there were unv eriticMii it should
he in parliament. This was u mutter
of self-preservation.
"What does the nation expect oi
the new cabinet f" he linked. "I will
answer that in one word - act inu.
That is the demand, that is the ncu,
action, not hesitation; not discussion
or agitation. The dntv lie- upon h.
goi eminent to declare what should In
done, to propoM' it to parliament and
