SOVIET RUSSIA.
(Australian & N.Z. Cable Association.) THE RED ARMY. LONDON, Jan. 25. Mr AV. Wei lock, Labour member of the Commons for Stourbridge, who was recently in Russia, makes remarkable disclosures of the methods adopted to increase the military spirit. He says: Girls as well as boys are learning to handle rifles, girls’ corps are being formed in trade union clubs for this purpose. Mi- Wei lock saw half a million young people march in the Red Square in Moscow in connection with the International Youth Movement. No capitalist Government in the world could put a army into the field with the modicum of the enthusiasm possessed bv young Russia.
