Russia Is Not
Fortifying Kuriles
'By TOM LAMBERT»
TOKYO, April 15, (/P) — Four
American newspapermen, includ
ing myself, flew for an hour over
the southernmost Russian occu
pied Kuriles and saw nothing to
indicate that the Russians had
moved to strengthen or fortify the
islands.
At a low altitude we cruised
sixty miles over the five little is
lands of Suisho, Yuri, Shibotsu,
Taraku and Shikotan and saw not
a single person, although the pre
war population was around 1,000.
The Russians reported garrisoning
at least one of the five.
We saw some new construction,
apparently warehouses on Shiko
tan, the largest and most norther
ly of the five. We saw piles of
lumber, indicating construction
and continuing settlement on the
shores of the small and almost
land-locked harbor. We didn’t
sight any Russian planes.
