Soviets To Rush
A Railroad Line
To The Far Fast
(By The Associated Press)
MOSCOW, July 19, Largely as a
measure of military defense against
Japan, the Soviet Union is in the
midst of a tremendous effort to
build a powerful Far Eastern in
dustrial state in the area just north
of Manchuria.
The central pattern in this new
military and industrial design will
be a new trunk line railroad from
Lake Baikal to the Pacific. It will
parallel the existing Trans-Siberian,
but wrill run several hundred kilo
meters north of it. Thus, it is hoped,
communication between Central As
ia and the Far East will not be en
tirely broken should an army ad
vancing from the south be able to
capture or destroy the Trans-Siber
ian.
New Water Routes
But the railroad is only a part of
the pattern. New water routes will
be opened. Sea and river ports will
be improved. New airplane bases
and landing fields will be laid out.
New mines and factories will be
started. In short, the Soviets hope
to build a powerful military and in
dustrial country where recently there
was wilderness.
Transportation has been the weak
est link in the Russian system of
military defense for a long time.
This is true under Stalin, just as it
was under the Tsars. The break

Strengthen ''Life Line''
Ever since the Japanese advanc
into Manchuria in 1931, Soviet off
c have been working to .strength
en their life line to the Far East
thc Trans-Siberian Railroad.
Clo-c t secrecy has been preserv
ed. but travelers say the line now i
d ible-tracked to a point just nortl
I Blaguveshenck, or about nine
tenth of the distance from Moscov
ti Vladivostok. Completion of thi
work is a part of the new Far East
ern program.
The new railroad, joining thi
Trans-Siberian at Lake Baikal, wil
traverse the northern continenta
p i! of the Far Eastern region, pass
mg on a rough line through thi
mrccs of the Zeia and Bureia riv
or and on to the new town of Kom
. otnolsk-on-Amur in the Maritimi
Pr evinces about 100 kilometer
no; th of Khabarovsk. A line be
tv .•■en Komsomolsk and Khabar
ov-k will connect the new railroac
ai ! the Trans-Siberian on the East
A! o a system of feeder lines wil
radiate from the Lake Baikal-Kom
• 'inol.sk route to industrial towns o
the Far East.
With the completion of this nev
I no the Soviet Union will be freei
• f its old fear of being completed:
cut off from the Pacific in case ai
enemy should capture the Trans
Siberian.
