London, Sept. 11

Colonel Repington, writing from France, urges that the recent great improvement in our position in Franco demands reconsideration of our plans for 1919. He says that France is preparing for a maximum effort to seeiire victory in 1919, but he cannot find that --Britain is doing the same. He declares that, vast arrays of tanks and aeroplanes are not substitutes for infantry, which must be kept up to strength. If we really intend to go all out for victory in 1919 we must secure the utmost' possible increase of infantry strength. /
