amour. Sept. 30 - (Reuters) - An estimated 26.000 German officers are "on the soviet pay- roll." the British-licensed weekly newspaper Berliner Montags Echo charges.

The paper says the group in- cludes 80 generals and 1U admirals.

In a review of the use by Russia of former German army and navy officers "for military and political aims." the newspaper nays that, it in a well-known fact in the ennt- nrn e of Germany that. highly qual led fighting members of the German army disappeared quickly after returning home from pris- oner-of-war camps in Russia.

"The explanation, of course. is that they are taken away sin to bn schooled," the _ new per says. ‘Then. after long training, they reappear in Soviet- army un- its. an has been proved b! the
