Odessa, whore more than 60 big fac

year of idleness.
While the Communists appear to

observer expressed it, the bitter eco
nomic lesson of the past four years
has left its imprint on the industrial
Russia of old. Here are to be seen
many powerful examples of how easy
it, is to destroy and how difficult
it will be to build up.
Odessa once boosted two huge
sugar refineries Together they en-
ployed nearly 10000 persons, but to-
day they are idle and almost in ruins.
Another 2,C0A men were employed in
the big rope manufacturing plant on
the outskirts OF the city. The fac

There were once three shipbuild-

5000 men and turning out vessels OF
5000 tens and more. The Soviet
government now operates it, at one
eighth capacity. Three chemical fac
tories have not been operated since
1917, and a French factory for max

fate 1t once required eight big

Two jewelry factories have been

thousands of persons. Odessa also
had factories for the making of cloth

caying buildings are all that is left
