The Foreign Legion Mutiny
VIEWS OF AUCKLAND MAN. ADVANCES REASONS FOR CAUSE (Per Press Association). AUCKLAND, Last Night. With reference to the London cable regarding the Foreign Legion mutiny, an Auckland resident who was in the Legion 16 years ago, said that the mutiny might be caused by lack of water or food, too much continued active service, or perhaps the gaffard, the madness brought on by heat and monotofly. It seemed to him that the mutiny report was exaggerated, for it was unlikely that a whole battalion would mutiny. Since the ,war there had been a large influx of Russians and possibly Soviet propaganda had something to do with it.
