Adding to this number those who have been brought in under the re- cent conscription act-somewhat less than a million-and those employed in the munitions and naval ship-building industries, the second anniversary of the war finds approximately eight million men and women directly en- gagged in war work or in other words, one person out of every six in the United Kingdom.
 This feat is all the more remark able When one considers that Britain was not military nation, in the sense that the others were.
 It was this deficiency of vision that caused the British public to pile upor one mans shoulders what eventually proved too gigantic a burden for him or any other man-to bear.

Granted enough powerful guns, with sufficient ammunition, concentrated upon au one sector, either may at any time clean up the intervening wire entanglemcuts, demoHsh the opposing front line trenches and occupy their ruius-oply to find further progress blocked by more intricate and more elaborate defences in the rear. Ypres, Loos. Hooge, and even Nerdun are no longer of especial consequence in the military sense. They are merely geographical pojnts-with much more geography. even more strongly de- tended spread out behind them,
 Great Britain sS7l is payins the penalty of lnrreparedness; or if you don't like it that way, Germany still is reapjug the fruits of preparedness
 That Sir Douglas Haig has failed seriously to dent the enemy's lines is no greater reflection upon his military skill than the failures of his prcJcccs- sor. General French, were upon his.
The Seward gateway., 1916-08-12

True, he has had more men, and, with in recent months, thanks to the or gauizng genius of Lloyd George, more mumtions-but he has had a longer line to cover. The British now occupy trenches extending from the Channel of Maricourt-with the eX- ception of very small sector held by the Bclgians-a total of more than 100 miles, or nearly one fourth of the entire Western front. Futher- more, he is maintaining heavy losses more, he is maintaining heavy re- serves, subject to any call for help from the French.
 But Haig's armies are suffering from the same defect as those of his predecessor; they are inadeQuately oficered, especially in the staff de- partment. In nearly every instance since the war started, where the British armies have met with revcrses or have failed to attain the immediate object of their offensive, this has been

Eng land lost many of her most capable and promising officers in the early days of the war. She has not only to fill their places, but to train others in sufficient numbers to supply an army that is now ten times the size of the one she had on August 4, 1914. Man ifestly this period has been much too short wherein to compete with the staff efficiency of a military machine of forty years' standing.
 But if Brtain's successes in the field have not been vorely brilliant, no one will dispute that her achievement in recruiting, organizing, training and euqipping an army of moye than five million men since the war begm-and on the voluntary principle, too.-aas been one of the marvels of military history.

THE BRITISH ARMY
By ED. L. KEEN


 CUnited Press Staff Correspondent
 LONDON, August 1. - Success in. modern warfare isn't measured in terms of real estate.
 If it were, Great Britain and her allies might point with considerable pride to the acquisition in the last two years of more than three times the acreage of the German Empire.
 The second anniversary of the war finds the Allies in possession of all the former great Teutonic colonies exceH German East Africa. Latest advices indicates that this particular parcel of land is about to fall into the hands of General Shuts and his Belgian and Portugese frieuds-a mere matter of some 5S4O79 square miles, ir in itself l75,299 square miles larger than Germany.
 But as Napoleon observed, the smashing of armies is the only thing that matters. Gemany's armies are today just as much unsmashed as they were two years ago. The out posts may be regarded as negligible. Of little more account, in their border aspects, have been the misfortuos of the Allies in GalHpoG, Mesopotamja, and the Balkans.
 The last year on the Western front has been one of stale-mate. There have been tremendous losses on both sides. but the lines of the opposing armies follow much the same course as they did in August of 1915. Each has bitten a few slices out of tFe others territory; certain important positions have been captured and some of them have been rccapUrcG but ,tc requires 8 large-s,aie map and fairly gooj cye-sight to d.''', the changes. Both armies, their losses recruited. remain uubrole0.
 Under the new style of intensive trench warfare which has been stead fly developing on this front during f1e two years, the defences of each have apparently become impregnable. The objective of the "big push" in these latter days is not so much to break through to the Rhine. or to the Cham mel ports, as it is to inaiet the great est possible damage upon the other side.
 "Attrition" has become the motto on the Western front for both armies.
