France King Ilcadlce Re turns to Tacoma After 2 Years in Torn Countries. ' TACOMA. "Wash., Dec. 18. (Spe cial.) Mrs. Frances King Headlee, ex-secretary of the state industrial welfare commission, who served for two years as a member of the United States commission for relief In the near east, has returned to Tacoma from the revolt-torn countries of Ar menia, Turkey and Greece. The destitution, of the Armenians tinder the long continued Turkish domination, the arrogance of the Turks and their growing confidence that their national identity will be acknowledged by the allies, the polit ical shake-up In Greece that has re sulted in the repudiation of Vcnizelos and the proposed return of ex-King Constantine to his throne, all passed under Mrs. Hcadlee's personal obser vation during her sojourn, in those countries. .trmrnlii Girls N'nraed. Mrs. Headlee was in charge of a erhool In Smyrna, to which Armenian jrirls. taken away from the Turks, were brought and harbored until they could either be returned to their rel atives or taught a vocation and placed. Here their torn, bruised, dis eased bodies were nursed back .to health and their shocked minds given peace after their horrible experiences to prepare them for re-entry into tho normal world. "When I first went to Armenia, i wo years ago, America's help was the hope of these people." said Mrs. Headlee. "But today this hope has dwindled into utter discouragement and despair as the months have gone by and nothing has been done. Many of the Armenians have turned bolshevik, but it is no fault of theirs, for they are their last hope. The allies have done nothing for them of late. If the allies had put Turkey in her place two years ago she would not have resisted nor raised a hand, but the delay has encouraged her to believe she is to be kept as one of the ruling powers, and her arrogance lias grown accordingly. Condition Declared Bad. "I do not believe America or any ether single country should take a mandate over Armenia, but a combi nation of the leading nations should fee that something was done for these people. "Conditions in the near east now are far worse than they were two years ago and' no place Is in sight yet. for they have never stopped fighting there." Mrs. Headee contin ued. 'The task of settling the dis putes of these countries is one of hard work, but until they are settled by the stronger nations harmony will not reign among them. Their na tional hatreds are so bitter it is un thinkable. 1- "The condition of the children is most terrible. I never went into a shop to buy food but what a little bony hand was raised to snatch the parcel from me as I took it. Hun dreds of them implored for food, if you offered to help one. Ten million dollars could not begin to feed thos Ftarvintr children." Portland and the North west's finest hostelry.
