The general STAFF believes that Ger

now commanded by officers detailed
for that purpose by the German gem

1t is pointed out here that the
speedy mobilization of the Russian
army has been made possible by the
new system of light transport yehi-
cles Of every character, especially de-
signed for use in the loamy rural dis
tricts. These vehicles have proven
vastly superior to the heavy ones
