SOVIET HELPS GERMANY
SECRET TUITION PACT FOR AIR PILOTS FACTORIES IN RUSSIA LONDON, Wednesday. The existence of a secret arrangement between the German Reichswehr and the Soviet army for the training of German military airmen in Russia is confirmed by a former officer of the Russian Air Force, who escaped from Poland by air. Writing in Kerensky’s newspaper this officer says: “A special school of training for German officers has existed at Eipetzk since 1925. It is directed by a German Communist. “German and Hungarian instructors are employed and 150 pupils pass through the school every summer. “German experts attached to the Soviet’s airplane works have completely modernised the equipment of the Russian Air Force.”
