The new Turkish government, avow edly pro-ally, apparently has ' made good its promise' of, several weeks ago' that' it would spare the " peace confer ence the trouble of punishing the lead ers who were : responsible for the Ar menian massacres and other, interna tional crimes. Kemal Bey, one of Enver's , associates, . was recently tried and hanged for complicity in these outrages.
