Russian Language a Favorite.
London, July 5. (By mail) Tho
Russian language, hitherto almost un
used in Western Europe, promises to
become a well-known tongue of the
future. German, French and Spanish
were the three loading tongues taught
in Great (Britain before the war. Ger
man has been almost abandoned.
French and Spanish, respectively,
now rank second and third to Rus
sian, which is eagerly sought by per
sons looking to vast commercial in
tercourse between Russia and the Al
lies after the war. On the other hand,
Spanish leads in Germany, according
to reports here.
