(By Main I The 1918 British army may be an nr ' mored army. ! The great casualty list that filters j through the war office every day ' from the front; the convalescent wounded and battered soldiers that are always on the streets and the ov erflowing hospitals are beginn'ng to I have their effect. I Many ask: "Isn't there a way to j minimize this appalling situation?" Somebody has answered: "Armor." I And It's beginning to look Uk ar inior for the British soldiers of 1916. j While the British war office Is considering whether It shall slip back to medieval methods of warfare so far as the protection of the soldier is concerned, well known Britishers are telling the war office through the press that armor is a natural neces sity In these days of machine guns and high-powered rifles. ; Scores of suggestions for modern 1916 armor emanating from scientists have narrowed down to the practica bility of a three piece suit of temper ed steel that would protect the fore head, breast and abdomen the three j vital spots of the body. The favor ed headpiece will, if authorised by the war office, take the form of the highly tempered steel skull cap-like protector now worn by the French to minimize the danger of shrapnel. The breastplate would be a thin leather covered hardened plate of steel, rurged to fit over the chest and held by straps that go over the shoulders and around the waist. The abdomena protector is suggested In! the form of another curved sheet of steel fitting over the lower ribs and extending down to the hones of the i hips. ! The British war office four years : ago experimented with a bullet proof breast plate at Aldershot where the!

One of firi tain's leading advocates : of armor' is Sir Arthur Conan Poyle, i the noted author of "Sherlock! Holmes." In a lengthy message from his home at Windiesham. Crowborough, Sussex, to a London daily. Sir Arthur. cited an action of the British In Northern France on May 9 when sev eral brigades were decimated In an effort to rush across 300 yards Inter vening between the British and Ger man trenches. He warned: "You must either abandon such at tacks or you must find artificial De tection for the men." Sir Arthur suggests three-piece suits of steel plates for the soldiers, but goes further in advocating a modern "testudo" a cover usd by the Roman soldiers In attacking a wall, former by overlapping their ob- i long shields above their head.". Sir Arthur's modern testudo, he would ! put on wheels to cover the men as ! thev charge the German trenches. He S "say: 5 j "These numerous armor plated ' bodies could rush with small loss j over a space which had already been : cleared as far as possible of 00' 5 ' stacles, and so have some chance of E ! reaching the enemy's line not as an ; exhausted fragment but as a vigorous stormine party with numbers Intact, 2 'Such apparatus would not necessitate S a great addition to the Impedimenta of an army.
