Dr. Yonan. who is a native Assy rian and a leader among his people ana who knows the story of suffer ing and agony of his people from his own hard experience, is in Portland in the interests of near-east relief work, and was the principal speaker at the first annual conference of the Oregon Near-East Relief association. "I am here to-represent two races, of people who for 600 years have been suffering under the heel of the Turk." said Dr. Yonan, in addressing the business men "the Armenians and Assyrians of Turkey and north western Persia. "The Turk is a combination of Tar tar, brute and Mohammedan. The best class of Turk, the kindest and most refined. Is such a man as can take an Innocent babe by the hair and decapitate It with a smile. This ts the people that has been our enemy and master for 600 years. Hardships Are Told. "The Turk is the embodiment of ignorance. Ue is Mohammedan. The Armenian is enlightened and educated and through the work of the American missions for 100 years is American ized in thought. The Armenian is a Christian. This may explain, per haps, why the Turks have been bent upon the nassacre of the Armenian people." The work of the Armenians in the world war was portrayed by the speaker, who declared that the Ar menians, numbering only 2,500.000 people, gave 400,000 young men to the armies to fight with the allied cause, and that the war of the near east had been virtually won, when Russia collapsed and turned the tide in favor of the Turks. He described a eiege of eight months made against the little band, of which he was the leader, and how flight at last was necessary. After weeks of hardships, racked with disease and without food he and his band finally reached Bag dad, where they were cared for. 37,000 Die on Roadside. Of the 80,000 who began the flight but 43,000 reached safety, the others "dropping dead from exhaustion along the way or being murdered by the Turks. "But the suffering of our people is still far from ended," he said. "It Is pitiful to see so noble a people i starving, to see 400,000 orphans ragged and unclothed, when there Is so much in this noble and heaven-blessed land of yours. 1 am alive today because of Just one thing the American near east relief. The children are living today because America lives. You eaw us bleeding and starving and you took us by the hand and gave ua help and sympathy. Bread. Not Money. Wanted. "Don't think that money was what we needed. I was a rich man in my country. I had 75 tenants on my lands, I owned three office buildings Just li'.ie you have in Portland. Back in my home was a collection of 32 Persian rugs worth S5000 each or more. And yet I needed bread to live. "We ask but one thing further. Don't forget us yet. Give us a chance to gain back our lands and our homes. Let us establish ourselves as a nation, with Ideals and aspirations like your own, and then leave us If you will. I think the time has come when Amer ica can well say to the Turks: 'Thus far Shalt thou go and no farther." We revere the stars and stripes, and we crave its aid and support" John IV. Mace of New York, head of the near-east relief work, was also present, and was called upon to speak.
