UNDERGROUND FORTS
RUSSIAN MAGINOT LINE
MOSCOW, February 24.
Newspapers reveal that Russia's entire western frontier, extending for a thousand miles from the Arctic Ocean to the Black Sea, is fortified with underground steel concrete forts claimed to be invulnerable even from the air. Similar fortifications have been built in the Far East.
