In one fight alone, 2,000 Russian were killed.
The Finnish authorities have evidence proving that the Russians are using "dum-dum" bullets and also that they are shooting their own men from behind.

In the fierce fighting at Saimni, many prisoners were taken.
In one engagement, eight out of ten Russian tanks were destroyed,
The prisoners taken said that they had been told that It would take Ave or six days to conquer Finland and that Finland was the aggressor.
Unfavourable Repert
It was because of one particularly unfavourable bacteriological report dated August 13, 1037 that on the advice of Dr. Pope I caused a notice to be published in the press an August 19 to 21 warning the public to boil "all milk" before drinking owing to the prevalence of Cholera" (8.0.37). In view of this statement coupled with the need for the intro- duction of the present amendment, the fact that notwithstanding pasteurisation is now compulsory and under direct Government supervision and in view of the reason given by and Director of Medical and Sanitary Services in its support that "in prac- tice difficulty has been experienced in ensuring that pasteurlsation has, in fact been carried out" and "hence' the need of a bacteriologicat stan- dord," the public would welcome an assurance from the Chairman that the process is being carried out efficiently and satisfactorily, and that! there is no danger of a feeling of false security being created.
