BOY SCOUTS ARE FOUND IN GREECE AND NEAR EAST Introduced by Relief Workers, Scout Movement Taks Firm Hold on Refugee Boys. New York, July 29. The propor tion of boy scouts amgng the youth ful populaiton of Russian Armenia is higher than in any other nation of the world, according to John R. Voris, a Near East Relief official who has just returned from an inspection of the American schools and insti tutions in Armenia. "Americans are familiar with the Boy Scout movement in the United States," said Mr. Voris, "but few of them realize the hold which the movement has taken in other parts of the world. It was introduced in the Near East by American relief workers, who regarded it as a highly useful fetaure in the training of 100,- 000 orphan children. 'American travelers marvel to find that in the Near East today, where hunger, sickness and persecution have worn down the vitality of whole nations to the vanishing point, the younger generation is taking up scouting just as enthusiastically and conscientiously as the boys of more favored nations. "In the six countries of the Near East which I visited, I found the movement organised by different agencies, according to conditions. In Russian Armenia, it has the direct backing of the government. In Greece it receives direct financial support from the state treasury and boy scouts have half-fare on all state railways. When boy scouts enter the Greek army, as all boys must do un der the compulsory service law, they are automatically given the rank of corporal, and are demobilized six; months earlier than others in the same military class, "The Greek government maintains a national school of scouting, and periodically national scout festivals are held in the Stadium at Athens. At the last such event, most of the athletic and drilling honors went to the boy students of the Near East Relief orphanages in Greece, whose American training showed its super iority very emphatically.

"When Smyrna was burned, and thousands of starving, injured and almost naked refug.es were landed at Salonika and other Greek ports, the Greek boy scouts were among the Arst to meet them, render first aid and assist in the task of rinding food and shelter." In Russian Armenia, Dr. Voris said, the first boy scouts were organised by American relief workers. This organization now has 6,000 orphan boys in one of its largest orphanages, all under Scout control and disci pline. A group of 600 uniformed scouts guard the warehouses and grounds of the organisation at Ales andropol, Armenia. Not long ago, Dr. Voris added, a Boy Scout troop from the American orphanage at Jubeil, Syria, while hik ing 25 miles north of that place, discovered the foundations of a Ro man temple, hitherto unknown. In the same district they found relics of Babylonia and Phoenicia which had been buried in the sands for many centuries. A museum was started at the Orphanage to preserve these treasures.

It happens to ue in this coun try very seldom; say once in a gen eration. But homicide goes on, ev ery year, and every day in the year: with a cumulative effect threatening to outrival that of war. Note current records. New York boasts of having a lower homicide rate than at least any other large city. Yet it had last year no fewer than sixty-four homicides to the mil lion. At that rate the number in the whole United States would have been 7,040. Chicago, on the other hand, had a rate of 175 to the million, which would have meant 19,250 in the whole country. And the city of Jacksonville, Fla., had no fewer than 688 to the million, which would have rolled up a national total of 64,680 homicides a year. The average rate for seventy-seven of the largest cities of the country was ninety-nine to the million. Adopting this as the presumptive rate for the whole country, we have a total homicide roll of 10,890 a year. We may reckon our wars as at the average of thrity years apart. Then in the thirty years of peace interven- Announcement I wish to announce that I have added to my stock The Florsheim Shoe THE FLORSHEIM SHOE is a shoe made for the man who wants style and service.

Not the least ominoui feature of the ease is that the hom icide rate throughout the country shows a general inclination to in crease; that of last year being- the highest on record. It is desirable to use all legitimate means for the avoidance of war. But it is equally certain thit there is no less urgent need of effecting an abate ment of retail as well as of whole sale manslaughter. There have been more persons killed in this country in murdeds, brawls and acts of crim inal carelessness than in all the wars we have fought.
