THE BRITISH ARMY
TO BE KEPT AT FULL STRENGTH By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright (Rec. May 21, 11.10 p.m.) London, May 21. Air. A. Henderson (Labour), in a letter to his agent at Barnard Castle, says the Government does ndt intend fe form fresh divisions, out intends to keep the existing divisions up to full strength, with sufficient' reserves in the rear. Experience shows that losses even in a successful attack are very heavy, •and unless the .armies are adequately provided with reserves, tho time must come when they will have neither the material strength nor the moral confidence required for a successful offensive. They must bo strong enough not only vo strike, But to strike again ana again.
