HUGE BRITISH FORCE ORGANISED
1,200,000 MEN UNDER ARMS
( I London, October 18. The military correspondent of "The Times," in respoiiso to Gorman allegations of failure of the BritWi recruiting, says: "Wo have 1,200,000 men in organised form, and Britain at the present moment lias so many men.offering that Lord Kitchener has been compelled to raise the standard above- any existing in Europe—otherwise ho would bo overwhelmed with recruits. All our men aro of military ag°.' There arc no children or greybeards, who aro so common in the German armies. It stands to reason that an Empire with 400,000,000 of people can never lack men. The Dominions overseas have come to manhood, and now seek to establish their claim 'to recognition of each for his own Dominion and all for all. It will go hard with Germany that this is so. Her misdeeds will never be forgotten by the Dominions."
