Adv. f Editor Statesman: Dear Sir: It was with a great deal of surprise that 1 read the words of Col. Haskell, head of the American -Red Cross in Asia Minor, alleged to have been given in an interview to one of the east ern papers that "It's about time for the Greeks and the Armenians to go back to : Asia Minor and swear allegiance to Turkey, ac cept military service, and become good Turks. Strange words! I i wonder how long Col. Has kell has been in Asia Minor and whether he has been so affected by the oily, smooth, bamboozling Turks that he can make! such a statement? i 1 The Turks have played one European nation against another for several hundred years. These European nations have allied themselves with Turkey, not be cause they did not recognize the treachery of the "Sick Man of Europe," but because they were not willing to play fair with each other. Is it possible that the Turks are using their wiles on some Americans? "Become good Turks!" It will take many, many" years before the Turks learn the meaning ot the word "goodness," as civilized na-i tions and enlightened Amerlct understand it.

However, I shall be lax in my duties toward America and Americans if I do not make a protest against such absurd and sinister suggestions. I write: as an American and a Christian who has seen the ,Turk as he is, and not as some of the representatives of various nations, or organizations see him sauve, smooth, polite, as Mephistopheles himself, and with the lust, treach ery, cunning and the cruelty of a sleak' tiger or a hyena.

I am afraid the good Colonel does not understand nian nor the Turk. "Become good Turks!" "Serve in the Turkish Army!" The Armenian is no coward: Thank God for that. He has giv en a good account of himself In the French, British and the Am erican armies. During the vari ous troubles between Turkey and Russia, the Armenians not only- have fought bravely but won the wars of ungrateful Russia, but to serve in the Turkish army.

' Our boys and the men In. the allied armies did not treat wo men and children and noncomba tants the way Turks have done' for generations. Perhaps 1 repre sentatives of various organizations have not seen what4 1 have seem and many Armenians have seen! I have seen women disemboweled; children transfixed on bayonets. men tortured; 1 have had oil poured on my shoulders, being prepared for burning; and only allied and American warships saved us. - Armenians would not show very much sense if they should go back; it would be walking into the butcher's pen.
