Let $G$ be a locally soluble-by-finite group in which every non-subnormal subgroup has finite rank. It is proved that either $G$ has finite rank or $G$ is soluble and locally nilpotent (and even a Baer group). On the other hand, a group $G$ is constructed that has infinite rank and satisfies the given hypothesis, but does not have every subgroup subnormal.
