Odessa Dec. Is "Wednesday. by the

there has been house to house fighting
between opposing Russian forces in
which a French contingent has taken
part The French, aided by volun-
teer Russian army, had been enabled
to extend the French zone on the wa
ter front to over one-third of the city,
including the business section. Hun
dreds of the opposing Russians still
are hidden in houses from which they
keep UP continuous fusillade.
The extent of the casualties or the
exact situation throughout the city is
uncertain.
Two days ago the republicans an
nounced that they would permit the
French to land, but evidently their
soldiers got beyond their control when
the French landed this morning. The
French General Bordus is in COM

Almazoff is in command of the Rus
sian volunteers assisting the French

French have no relations with the re-

republicans at Kiey, where they have
been in control four days.

any way in his determination to re-

duced by Berger to become a soldier,
the witness said:
Berger is too slow a bird; he is
not fast enough to travel in my com

Berger refused to print several of
his articles because they were too
radical.

tBy Morning Journal Special Leased wlre)

German army denuded Poland not
only of foodstuffs but carried off all
horses and 90 per cent of the cattle,
so that 1t is impossible to cultivate
the land. In addition, all wool and
cotton were taken and the people are
destitute for clothing, which is cost
ing at the rate of 800 marks for a
suit principally of cotton.
The latest official news received
from Poland was received by Lieut..
Hempel ten days ago, when the country
was standing firmly for the newly es-
tablished democracy, despite the ef-
forts N the German and Russian
Bolshevists to win adherents and
threats made by hostile forces along
the Polish frontiers.
II assure you that all that has been
said about the Polish army massa-

Hempel declared
"The Ukrainians when Withdrawing
from Lemberg massacred 200 Jews and
also 3, 900 Poles AS forty nine out Of

TO find the growing and prevailing in
terest in the subject of the league of

lightful that members of the govern
ment which brought this nation into
the war because of the moral obliga-
tons based upon a treaty should be-
among those who have brought me
this paper, because on the other side
of the water we have greatly admired
the motives and subscribed to the
principles which aGtuated the govern
ment of Great Britain in obeying that
moral dictate.
you have shown that we must orr
ganize, namely that same force and
sense Of obligation and unless we or
ganize it, the thing that we do now
will not stand.

London Dec. 2S-The broad fea-

the pacifists and the women candi-

of all. the victory of the Sim Fein-

That the coalition government

would command completely an over
whelming majority in the new house
in the proportion of almost five to
one had never been contemplated
even by the most sanguine coalition
lists. And since coalition as it now

been agreed upon between America
and England would prove Of the
greatest assistance in the work of the

An understanding virtually had
been reached already between the en-
tente powers regarding the admission
of the various nations to the peace

certain that America and England
will be found working in complete

At the close of his address am
swerlng a question as to when he ex-
