GERMANY'S WORLD-POWER SCHEMES
HER ACCESS TO THE EAST
DIRECT ROUTE TO PERSIA AND AFGHANISTAN
(Received March 11, 8,30 a.m.)
NEW YORK, 10th March. The New York Times gives prominence to a despatch from German sources stating that the Germans claim, to have acquired a direct free route, via Russia, to Persia and Afghanistan. The Times points out that if the despatch is true it has an important bearing on the situation in Western Asia, and possibly in India. A passage through Persia would probably meet with only nominal opposition.
