By J. W. T. Mason. * x (United Press Staff x * Correspohdent.) * HEEKKKEKKKKKKKK KKK A victory of large importance has been gained by the Brit- ish in Mesopotamia, toward the. very heart of the district which Germany has marked on the maps as the site of her future colonial ex- pansion in Asia. By capturing Kut- el-Amara, the Brit- ish place themselves well on the road to ~ JW.TMas Bagdad and make it probable that the Arabian Nights city will fall into their position before the end of the winter. With Bagdad lost, Ger- many’s ambitions for colonial devel- opment in the most fruitful region of Mesopotamia must disappear un- less the Germans are prepared to make important concessions in the peace conference after the war. Kut-el-Amara is midway between Bagdad and the town of Amara it- self, the entire distance being 190 miles. The British reached Amara on June 1. They have spent about: four months, therefore, covering half the journey to Bagdad and early next year they should be in the capi- tal city. The Turks are unquestion- ably demoralized and are badly in need of munitions. The British are largely outnum- bered, but the Ottomans are conduct- ing their retreat as they themselves were the inferiors. The entire Mesopotamia campaign is permitting the British to demonstrate the truth of the German theory of warfare, that inferiority in numbers must not be accepted as a necessary handicap. The Germans at Constantinople are undoubtedly debarred from giv- ing any help to the Mesopotamia trocps or reinforcements would have been dispatched long ago. Only once, so far as is known, have the Turks sent a fresh army into the Mesopotamia campaign. That was after the British had crossed into the legendary site of the Garden of Eden at Kurna, which is at the junc- tion of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. The Turks then attempted a flank attack from the west, but were driv- en off and eventually routed last July, when their ammunition gave out. As long as shortage of ammu- nition prevails in Turkey, the Ger- mans must thus continue powerless to prevent the last and most valuable of Teutonic colonial projects from being held up for ransom at the peace conference. CITY OF FARGO IS AFTER NORWEGIAN CONSULATE; DR. FJELDE IS WANTED Fargo, N. D., Oct. tion has been passed by the board of city commissioners here requesting the Norwegian government to make Fargo the headquarters of the vice consul for this territory and request- ing that Dr. L.
