You know lheir story ? Abdul Ham: . was the Sultan of Turkey. He was the sarrtairnlrd individual who in 1896 deliberately directed the killing of ioo,uoo Armc:naris Who arc the Ar menians? They arc one of the ol lest Christian peoples tn the world. They lived in a province that lies north of Mesopotamia, cal of Asia Minor, west of Persia and south of the Ti.i k Sea. It is a province of mountains and valleys not only rub but fertile. I,8ou,000 Armenians lived in that country, cultivating the valleys and made them “blossom as the rose”. The Tutks hated them be cause they were Christians; hated them because they were industrious, and enjoyed the prosperity that comes from industry. Later when Turkey entered the great Euro pean war as the ally of Germany, she invited German officers into her army. Her army was shortly officered by German officers, who directed that army to go into Armenia and depart ijioo,- ooo Armenians, which they did. tmo.ouo escaped. The other f,aa>.<x® were driven by that army to the desert of Mesopotamia and byria, and in the drive the army deliberately killed men, women and children, by rifle ball, by bayonet, by knife, by driving them over precipices, by driving them into deep running rivers—-600,000 m- n, women and children I llalf of them were deported to Asia and half to Mesopotamia. Out of those de ported nearly 400,000 died of starvation. Then Germany turned the Cau asus over to Turkey; Turkey proceeded to attend to th« Ar menians—in that kindly, fatherly way! That is the story I A friend of mine who was on the bonier of Persia told me that he had gone to a German officer and said “For God’s sake, can’t you stop the butchery of these men, women and children ?” and the German officer clicked his heels together and said “Stand back, the time for mercy has passed**. This is the story of that unfortunate people. The Syrians. Greeks and Jews in Western Asia have suffered the same kind of barbaric treat ment. The Armenian and Syrian Relief has been organised for some years to care for these unfor túnate, sorely distressed prop]» tunate, people. It has received and most efficiently expended more than $12,- 000,000. Each cent that you give will go for actual relief. Feeble, helpless, starving millions erv for food. I urge you to give generously of your bounty. .A » ; Amaricen Soldiers Not Responsible For Crime Wave In Parle. a«.» w'S3 Anil is enda ‘¿foliar ...... r Advertí,» ni l ha Scio Tribune and g- S reaulta. $ $ ? $ $ THE WAR ANOTHER JOB FOR THEIR UNvLf SAFf I « , •*'•*** *i**..^*r! -Tl PERSHING DENIES REPORTS Washington Haporta that Amari ran soldier» ar« raspou«lbl« for a crime wav« in Par's aro flatly denied by General Pers'. ng In a cablegram to A«. -rotary of War l aker • Shill r»fu Ukraine Prepare« attack on Rumana, tenon of the chargee cannot be put lacndcu. —ükralniati troops ara pro to > strongly I ■ for» iha American peo parto« to attack It-, i mania, which la pl. the American commander stated •aid to har« mobil.«ed Ila facon« to General I’e. : ng a cablegram waa . m-et th- assault. a cordin« to Copwo «•at tn rosponM tu Intuirle« by the hagen advices to the Mail • ar depart meut, foilowing sensational char«» * published in tho Parts Matin, that \n>»rlcati « tdmra war« responsi Tumulty Dentes will Run for Governor b’a tor «ti appai >g number of mur Jersey City, N J Joseph P Tu ió a and robberies In th® French capi multy. secretary t-> President Wilson, ta!
