Description | Lord Kitchener and Lord Haldane arriving at the War Office |
Details |
Mr Asquith's departure from precedent in calling Lord Kitchener, a soldier and member of the opposite party, to the office of Secretary for War met with enthusiastic approval. Immediately upon his appointment he flung himself into his new duties with characteristic vigour. He is seen here arriving at the War Office accompanied by Lord Haldane, who was the current Lord Chancellor and former War Minister.
