tracted war of the vast military re-
sources of Russia. AS Earl Kitchener
Justly said. Belgium must be recap
tured from the Germans after the in
tegrlty of French territory is assured.
But TO accomplish these objects Great
Britain must keep on turning out
soldiers until her field force bears
practically the same proportion to
population as do the first line armies
of the Continental powers.
So far Great Britain has probably
sent about 100000 mon into France.
The regular home army consists Of
$40 officers and 172.000 men. with a
reserve of $4,000 men and special
reserve Of 10000. In addition 100 600
volunteers have been enlisted since
the present war began The Terri
torial army has a strength of $4,000.
But It is intended for home defence
and will probably be used abroad
Cnly as its units volunteer for regu-
lar service. Canada. Australia. New
Zealand and South Africa will un-
dOuhtedly furnish 100000 first line
troops, $4,000 having already been
organized. In case Of dire need
Great Britain might slso draw native
troops from the Indian Empire for
service In Europe. With Great
Britain. as with Russia. the longer
the war lasts the more reserve
strength will be thrown into the
balance. These two powers will get
stronger. while Germany and Aus
tria-Hungary are rapidly using up
their military capital.
Some of the English newspapers
are already advocating a conscription
after the Continental plan. Up 10
now there has been no need of a
general draft Volunteering has been

Great Britain Preparing
For Long, Hard War
(From The New York Tribune.)

Earl Kitcheners speech in the
British House Of Lords did not con
tain a direct prediction that the
European war would last three years.
But his remarks we're warning to
the people of the United Kingdom
and the British Empire that they
must be prepared for sacrifices such
as they have made IN no war since
the long struggle against Napoleon I.
The War Minister spoke Of his own
term Of service as FOR the duration
Of the war or for three years, if the
war should last longer than that" Z"
That was variation Jf the phrase
used in the British call for volun-
teers which asked for enlistments for
three years or for the war There
was some criticism of the terms Of
the call on the ground that It did
not make clear whether or not the
volunteers would be released short OF
three years If in the meantime the
war had stopped But The govern
ment wisely safeguarded itself
against mishap by making the term
Of enlistment indefinite.
When our Civil War broke out the
authorities could not realize that II
was going to be a struggle to the
point Of exhaustion They called for
volunteers for three months, six
months and year and soon dis
covered that the work Of recruiting
would have to be done several times
over. 10 usually takes a year OF field
service TO turn raw troops into
veterans. The British government
has avoided our mistake. II will
soon need TO keep an army Of 500 900
to 100000 men In the field. and 1t
cannot afford to have the strength Of
that army sapped at any time by
cXpirations Of service.
Initial German successes on .the
French frontier have only made the
extent of Great Britains task more
definite. The sole hope of escaping
long war lay in crushing repulse
of the German invasion Had Ger
many and Austria-Hungsry been
thrown on the defensive AT the outset
their defeat would have been pretty
nearly assured. They could have
been blockaded and slowly starved
into submission without a vast strain

Lord Kifchener's Three
Year War Speech
CFrom the New York SUM

That England goes into war today
with the same bulldog tenacity that
she displayed in the NapOleonic era
is plain enough If the proceedings IN
Parliament on Tuesday are 10 De
taken at their face value. Earl Kilt
chener i'm his characteristic dispas-
sionate way talks Of the war as likely
to last three years. He has EN-
listed" for that period himself he
says. and he goes on to tell the coun-
try in pnvarnished words the sacri-
fees IL must make.
The Government It appears. Is de-
veiopng an army for field operations
which may reach 100000 men. This
is a stupendous military undertaking
in comparison with anything England
has ever done before; but it is not
in the least improbable. The latest
estimate OF the population under the
British flag in Europe Is 45.SlS,5OO,
and Il is certain that the overseas
dominions viii send large contin-
gent. France has scant 40.000.000 Of
people and has az present probably
not far from a million Of men under
arms.
In the plan OF steadily building up
the army at the front which the head
Of the War Ofice outlined. we see the
same iron nerve and machinelike
mind at work which planned the ad-
vance on Khartum nacihed the
Transvaal and reorganized the In
dian army. In the calm, cold an
nouncement of sufferings and sacri-
fces TO be horne, the remorseless
purpose and energy which all obser-
vers attribute TO tho eX-Sirdar ap-
pear as potential as in the campaigns
which made him England's main re-
lance.
