Shot-down Soviet 'Planes
"WE ARE RUSSIANS"
STOCKHOLM, Jan, 10. TWO Soviet 'planes shot down by the Finns at Viborg are re ported in Stockholm to have con- tnined three German airmen.
They were captured alive.
All stated that they were Ger- min-speaking members of the ancient German colony in the
·Volga basin.
The men were unable to answer any questions In Russian, and pecu- larities in their uniforms convinced the Finns that they belonged to the Reich Air Force.
Details of a new Soviet "tank aleigh" are given by Swedish news- paper correspondents describing the rout of the 44th Russion Division in the Suomussalmi sector.
Several of these, they say, have been captured on the network of frozen inkes south of Suomussalmi and also on Lake Ladoga,
They have a crew of three one man forward manning a quick-firing cannon, a machine-gunner amidships. and a driver at the rear.
The "tank sleigh" has a torpedo- shaped armoured body with an nero- plane propeller behind.
