Sir Edward Carson will say to-mor-
row in 1.-THE Evening Telegram:
"Let no one minimize the cost Of
these successful actions in France. The
daily record of losses in officers and
men must at least put those of US who
are outside Of official circles on the in
quiry "a 20 the reserve man-power, and
whether il is sufficient, having regard
to our past experiences, to take us the
whole way until final victory is as
sured.
"This matter brooks no delay. No
one doubts, I think. that If we had had
compulsion in the early autumn of last
year, when il was proved that volun.
tary recruiting had failed, we should
now be witnessing in the West one
steady march to the final goal. Let US
not make the same mistake again. II
the military service acts have to be
extended. let us do il in good time and
let the nation know that the greater the
sacrifice the shorter the war.
Operations next spring probably will
be conclusive, and it ought to be our
most supreme effort TO make them So"
