CAMOUFLAGED CAVALRY.
GERMANY’S HORSEMEN
LONDON, April 9
So-called “Societies of Equitation” that have sprung up in occupied Germany have led to correspondence between the Inter-Allied Rhineland Commission and the Reich’s Minister. Tire societies’ activities show remarkable finesse, in which, while developing horsemanship to the extent required of a cavalryman, outwardly do not infringe the occupation regulations.
The societies declare that they, have not detected any drilling, but it is difficult to divide “haute ecole” and# cavalry training. The societies declare that they are solely concerned with the improvement of horse breeding. Nevertheless (says the Cologne correspondent of the Times) it may he pointed ont that it only exists in the occupied territory, and also that such training has been increased beyond the requirements of horse breeding.
