Phone riuiing 23 IFe are here to serve you with anything in the line of priJited i President Wilson, in Message to Russian Soviets, Issues Defi to Kaiser American Troops in Many Raids. Announcement that German troops have occupied Odessa is one of the most significant of recent developments. Thin action by Germany, in spite of the conclusion of the peace with Russia, was expected ultimately, tiut it came somewhat as a surprise because of the fact that little had been ltenrtl of llte Germans and Austrians in tiiat region. The occupation of Odessa, the greatest Russian port on the Rlack sea, is of the greatest importance for several reasons. First, It gives the Germans control of the center of a great agricultural section, the products of which are desired to feed the hungry peoples of the central empires. With Odessa safely In their hands, the Teutons will hnve access to vast stores of wheat which can be transported overland or by sea to points where it can be readily shipped into Austria ml Germany. Rut the capture of Odessa will mean something more an advance over the route to Persia and Afghanistan, and possibly India, which is to be followed now that the British have severed the famous Berlin and Bagdad route to the East. The passing of Odessa Into German control will make possible the completion of the German milltnry line across Russia from the Baltic at Narva (81 miles from Petrograd) to the Black sea. It gives the Germans control not only of the resourres of the Ukraine, but of the bulk of Russias grain stores anil of the vast export trade of Russias southern provinces. Control of this territory opens a route for a German land drive into the far East, by way of Battitn, in (which was taken from Russia at and given to Turkey), Baku, across the nspian sea to Krasnovodsk, In Turke-an- , and through Merv to the border of Afghanistan, thus threatening the Indian empire. Another route Is through Tobernn. across central Persia to Ispahan and thence to Shiraz, to the Indian frontier. spelling equal menace to Britain's far Eastern possessions. d dotn.
