Turks Hear Of Revolt In Ukraine

Martin Angronsky, NBC correspondent in Ankara, reported on July 14th an attempted revolt in Ukraine, according to the New York PM daily. He said:

"An abortive attempt by Nazi fifth columnists and Ukraine Nationalists to provoke a separatist revolution in the Ukraine was reported in thoroughly reliable diplomatic circles here to have taken place last week. The revolt ... was carefully planned and one day of serious disorder resulted. But the outbreak was quickly suppressed. The great majority of the Ukraine population appears to have remained loyal to the Soviet ... the ringleaders of the revolt were in many cases turned over to the authorities by the local population. Similar outbreaks ... reported in White Russia ... were as quickly suppressed."
