Excerpt from Fallacies Service

The Committee, which succeeded the two Royal Commissions, met under the presi dency of Lord Esher to consider an organ ization for Army Headquarters better suited to our needs than that which then existed. After a short deliberation it recommended the formation of an Army Council of seven members, four military and three civil. This Council was forthwith created. It was hoped that, by thus placing the administra tion of the Army in the hands of a Council in which professional Opinion preponderated, the people of this country might feel assured that the experts in the art of war were satisfied with our preparations.
