“Lost Army” Of 70,000 Men In Siberia
(Received 10 a.m.» LONDON, December It).
The "Daily Mail" stales that, according to Paul Rudolf, an Austrian soldier who escaped from a Russian labour camp, a “lost army” of 70.000 men taken prisoner in the Great War, mostly Slavic or Austro-Hungarians, whose families years ago abandoned hope of seeing them again, still exists. “The men have scattered in remote parts of Siberia and Outer Mongolia. Many have married again and settled down after losing touch with their former associations.”
