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. This meet-

is f shirt sleeved affair as the picture shows.
inf was held on the very spot where
the first Marathon was run, end it
was here that the ancient Olympic
games were held.
"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.

CAIN OUTRIVALS MARS.
War Is not the only life-destroying
evil. 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-

int between the last war and the
next there will be 326,700 homicides;
equal to the death roll of several
years of war. 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. It is well to shackle
