~ Elistment Of Soldiers.

LONDON, May 14.-Viscount Hal
dane, lord high chancellor, in the
house OF lords today intimated that
the government was considering the
necessity of departing from the volun-
tary sysem of military enlistment and
resorting to universal service through
out the kingdom. For the present, he
said, hands of the war Office were
filled with men they possessed, but
it might be necessary to reconsider
the situation in the light of the ire
mendous necessities with which the
nation was confronted.
This appears to confirm the idea
prevalent here that, while recruiting
has been satisfactory the heavy fight
ing in Flanders shows that many
more men will be required if victory
is to be attained.
Thus far British troops, according
to Field Marshal Sir John French,
have withstood all the German on
slaughts, and while at times they
have been compelled to give some
ground their counter attacks have
brought them back to the position
from which they started However,
this has been costly, for the German
artillery bombardment has been Sc.

followed by heavy casualty lists.
In their attempt last fall to reach
Calais the Germans continued their
attacks for six weeks, but the allied
force was much weaker then, and the
Germans did not meet the counter Of
fensives they now meet in the west.
OF these the most important is that
in which the French are carrying out
from Arras to the point where their
line joins the British and in which
they continue to meet with unvarying
success. They report again today the
capture-which the Germans admit

The Austro-German offensive con-
tinues in western Galicia, where the
Russians have been driven forty
miles back from their old positions
and to within twenty-five miles of
Przemysl. The fighting, however, has
become less intense. The Germanic
allies estimate their captures at some
10000 men, So guns and 255 machine
guns.
