INVESTIGATION
DEMANDED INTO
AFRICAN FIGHTS
LONDON, April .*>— (Correspon
dence of The Associated Press)— Ac
cording to information received hen*
from Capetown, a demand has sprung
up there for a searching investigation
inti tin* manner in which the British
campaign was conducted in East and ,
Central Africa after General Sni'jus,
had relinquished command to come to
England. When he left it was believed
that the campaign had been virtually
cc neluded.
Owen Letcher, formerly an officer
in *he East African expeditionary for
reviews the campaign in a se’”C£
of articles in the Cape Times and
jtiongly advocates a commission of
inquiry. “Belief prevails in Capetown, \
it is said, that the sport of yachting
at Dar-es-Salaam and elephant hunt
ng in the interior were largely ce- i
sponsible for the prolongation of the .
fighting.
The campaign is said to have *x
cceded the cost of the Boer war, ‘
amounting to about $1,500,000,000. To
the casualties, which were heavv in
killed and wounded, must be added
many men who will suffer from <evor|
for the rest of their lives.
The work of the Portuguese colon-!
ial forces is criticised , also the huge
headquarters staffs maintain.-a by the
British hundreds of mile* flom the*
scenes of the actual fighting.
Discussing the Portuguese, Letchei
writes: "In common justice to our fjr |
i*es it must be set on record that not
>nly did the Portuguese colonial army !
put up poor defense aguinst the ma
rauding Germans, but that their pres
ence was a very substantial advant
age to Von Lettow, (German com
mander) inasmuch as they frequent'v
embarrassed our movements and sur
rendered to the enemy guns, rifles,
machine guns and supplies of which
the Germans were badly in need.
"The engagement at Nhamacurra,
about ."0 miles from Quelimane, which j
was fought in the beginning of July.
19ls, was a particularity disastrous
event for us, since after the Portu-;
guose had lost two guns, with a lot
of other equipment, and the native
troops despite the efforts of their of- i
ficers had broken in disorder, tne on-j
emv attacked Major Gore Browna s
King African Rifles detachment and,
largely through the employment of
the two captured guns, inflicted a se
vere defeat to us.”
tVRKl'KED BOOZE BOAT LIBELED

Nels Anderson has filed a suit for
