WAR TALK.
SOVIET SHOUTINGS
TO COVER FEARS,
AIOSCOW, July 11. As “Our Reply to Chamberlain,” funds are being collected throughout Russia to build an air flotilla.
“Defence Week” started yesterday, representing, according to M. Rykoff, the head of the Union Council of Commissaries, the beginning of persistent work to assume the defence of the country. The Riga correspondent of the Times telegraphs that the Soviet has broadcast to workers everywhere, from Minsk to Vladivostock, shouting defiance to the capitalist world. M. Rykoff declares: “Let them: all come. Victory is ours, whatever war is forced on us 4 because we have true allies working behind the front in every country.” SOVIET’S WORRIES. The Moscow correspondent of the Times says that there is unusual Governmental nervousness and anxiety following the cessation of British relations and the reverses in China, while there are fears of a poor harvest, as recent storms have destroyed many crops. Avar scares and the open resumption of “Red terror” have merely been arranged to divert the public mind from the failures of the Soviet in diplomacy abroad and from the chaos at home.
