AUSTRALIA STRIVING
TO RECRUIT HER ARMY
Insistent Demand for More Fighters.
$4,000 Men Already I'm
der Arms.
,ndence Of the Associated Press.

Correspondence of the Associated Press.
i MELBOURNE, Australia. August r.
Everything possible Is now being done
| to get more recruits in Australia
everything short of CONSUMPTION itself.
There are. after a year of the war,
80, 900 Australians under arms, either
In the firing line at the Dardanelles or
in training camps, but instead of
there being any let up in the call for
men the demand for them grows more
and more insistent.
Although the ministry of defense
denies that it looks to conscrip-
ton, a census of unmarried men has
just been taken by the police of the
various states to determine the fight
ing strength. The result of this has
not been made public. The campaign
to enlist volunteers, however, takes
on new vigor each day.
Appeals Made for Volunteers.
There are speeches by civil and
military authorities: there are news
paper appeals; there are huge adver-
Using posters; there are parades, and
there is even the display of wounded
soldierS-all to the same end. In this
state (Victoria) recruiting campaign
covering the last three weeks OF July
ments, a number which, 1t Is pointed
out, equals the strength of the entire
Australian force which was sent to
Egypt last November. The fact that
things a rival of Victorian some
ways jealousy so-hgures to certain
extent in a recruiting campaign which
is now in progress there.
Business houses all over Australia
are making it easier for young men in
their employ to enlist by either keep
ing up their pay or promising them
their old places if they return. and to
join the colors, the press is by request
of the military authorities printing al
most daily the liberal rates of pay for
Australians on active service and the
abled and the relatives of such officers
and privates as may be killed.
Plea for Patriotism.
But the chief appeal is to patriotism,
and never have the antipodes seen
such a widespread and ardent use as
nowadays of the union jack of the en-
pire and the southern cross of the
young Australian federation. The gov
eminent will have comparatively little
trouble in clothing the greatly aug
mented number of volunteers, but 1t
will have considerable difficulty in
arming them. 1t is not improbable that
it will have to have the assistance of
the imperial government in this re-
spect-
Meanwhile wounded men are begin
ming to be brought back all the way
from the Gallipoli peninsula in fair
numbers. By November it is likely that
with cooler weather in the Red sea
many more will be returned home.
Elaborate preparations have been made
for the care and treatment of these
soldiers. In order to raise funds for
this July 80 was chosen as Australia
day" and every conceivable method
of obtaining and soliciting contribu-
tons was employed on that date from
one end of the commonwealth to the
other. The result of the patriotic
charity was sum which at this writ
ing-with the returns not yet In from
1000, 900.
