patched achievements OF troops from

causes are d~eep-rooted I'm the long-con-
tinued general disorder which has reigned
In the region owing solely TO rivalry
among the races.
a prominent oil man explained that the
loss would be more far-reaching than the
mere hnancIal value OF the oil and naph-
ira consumed. or that OF the tanks. build
ings and machinery destroyed. because
the supply OF oil for purposes Of fuel
could not be replaced inside OF a year and
that the transportation industry Of Rus
