Strengthening of two arms routes have increased shipments of Soviet munitions into China, while a third artery is nearing completion, a report reaching here from Suiyuan, capital of Suiyuan province, said today.
Larger quantities of Soviet arms and ammunition are coming throw Urga, capital of Outer Mongolia. Th: route, it was explained, starts from Uranude on the Siberian Railway line stern shore of Lake Baikal southward to Urga and gh the western section of Outer Mongolia. The other route goes through the Sinkiang province.
A much shorter route will be made available when the railway line from the Soviet Union-Outer, Mongolia frontier to Urga is completed by the end of this year. This route is ex pected further to increase arms traffic because of the geographical advantage over the one through Sinkiang. the report said.—Domei.
