WASHINGTON. April 1L-Hou- A W.
Terrell, United States minister to
Turkey, has left Washington To visit
his aged mother. who resides in Lynch
burg, Va In speaking of American
interests in Turkey. and particularly
of our missionaries. MIR. Terrell said:
After you get away from the sea-
coast into the country there are three
American lives that might be endan-
gered To one Of all other natioualities
that have missionaries at work over
there. This Is fact that per
haps is not generally known in
the United States. and then We
have school buildings and college
property to the extent OF several mil
lions Of dollars. The responsibility in
watching over the safety Of ones eoun-
trymen in foreign land in times OF
peril does not add 10 the fascination of
a diplomats post, and I confess that
was glad to get away for awhile
