A Country

Stockholm, Mar. 1.
Estonia, incorporated into the Soviet Union since the war, has become a country of “rackets” under Soviet rule, according to reports brought by a group of refugees who reached Sweden recently.
Many of the "rackets", the refugees say, and their reports have been checked against other sources, are run by Russian officers stationed in Estonia since the incorporation. They and the Estonian Communist party officials working with them in Tallinn, the capital, have made the "Laine"

Australia's rabbits are threatening to defeat scientists in the battle to exterminate the pest by means of the myxomatosis virus.
