SOVIET SPLIT
INTERVENTION FEARED ARE ARMY AND NAVY DISAFFECTED? CRUX OF THE SITUATION (By Telegraph—Press Assn. —Copyright.) (Rec. 7.30 p.m.) London, October 14. The Times’ Riga correspondent reports that interest in the forthcoming Communist struggle centres on the question of whethet the Red army and the fleet is disaffected. The new naval Commander-in-Chief, Muklevich, aroused considerable comment by a speech declaring the situation was most serious owing to the likelihood of a new intervention in Russia under the leadership of Britain, while Communists are engaged in a party struggle. The speech is interpreted to indicate anxiety regarding the fleet’s loyalty, especially as Zoff, the former Commander-in-Chief, who was recently dismissed, has joined the oppositionists.—Times Service.
