RUSSIAN PAPER ON GERMAN YOUTH CAMPS
MOSCOW, Marell 28 (Rec. 8.15 pm).—Germany, just as she did after the Versailles Treaty, is now, with the help of the Anglo-American occupation authorities, “reconstructing her military forces,” said the Red Army newspaper, “Red Star.” It added that camps had been established in the Western zones ostensibly to educate German youth in the spirit of democracy “This finds expression in the learning of grenade throwing, bayonet fighting and similar aspects of military training." The newspaper asserted that the British and the Americans had formed a German Black Guard drafted from German unemployed and former war prisoners.
