The British army has undergone changes of a far-rcaChing character since the outbreak of the war in 1914, and it now possesses many branches unhcalH of in pre-war days. Every re- source afforded by the manifold capa- city of this great industrial community has been hanesscd to the war chariot, says a British statement from official sources.
 There are certain respects in which the problem by which the British army is faced is unique; and one of the most striking of these is that it must be capable of campaigning in any part of the world and in any climate. In the case of armies like that of Germany, on the other hand. the problem of pre- paration for war was relatively simple. The ground on which the army was destined to fight was known it was an army designated to do battle in a particular theatre Europe. In consc- quencc everything could be. and was planned along certain well-dcfined lines.

France and Belgium was mak" trenches everywhere" In fact all the Continental powers had in addition to their corps of engineers, very large numbers of trained pioneers organized in battalions, and suitable for use either as fighting troops of in the con- struction and maintenance of field works and communications The ab- solutc importance of the laSt-namcd can perhaps only be realized by on" who has seen the roads during an ad- vance.
 But. while the Continent was to this extent prepared for trench warfare as was natural in the circumstances it was otherwise with Great Britain. In the British Service only the Indian army possessed pioneer regiments, there troops being always necessary in conducting campaigns in the hill country. When the need for this class of troops became evident steps were taken to form pioneer battalicns for the F,Xpcditionary Force. From the first they proved their value.
 Pioneers are prepared to fight or work as may be required. They perform such services @s the co"struc- ton and repair of communication trenches, fire trenches and duG-outs, the digging of trenches and wiring. Their duties are manifold and there is no form of usefulness at the front

ment for his confessed bigamy.

cent recruiting campaign, and his mar
riage to Miss Beatrice f. Caswell a

Navy League Urges
Anti-U-Boat Board
Could Cooperate with British
in Planning Attack on Bases,
Saws Statement

Washington, July 25.-Establishment
of an anti-submarine division in the
Navy Department, to be charged with
the formulation of plans and study of
the use of inventions to combat the
submarine menace, is urged in state
ment issued at the headquarters of the
Navy League of the United States here
to-day.
"The recommendation" says the
statement, sis that the anti-submarine
division Of the United States Navy De-
partment should cooperate with the
corresponding division of the British
Admiralty for the purpose Of deciding
upon effective methods OF offence
against the whole submarine power as
well as to perfect the present pallia-
tives employed in defence against sub
marine attack.
Tn making this proposal the league
only reflects expert opinion, which now
seems agreed that offensive operations
against the whole power Of the sub
marines, in the vicinity OF their bases,
as feasible, provided adequate prepare
tions are made.
reconsideration Of plans for offensive
operations against submarines is being
given to-day by the General Board OF
the navy, while preparations for and
the ultimate execution of such plans
would be directed by the chief Of naval
operations. But the General Board is
necessarily employed with other prob
lens as well, and the work of prep;ar-
ing for and carrying out any plan
would constitute but part Of the work
az the Office of naval operations.
