FRANCE AT

The French have sailed away,
not to Troy, but to the neighbour
hood of Smyrna, which may stand
where mythical Troy stood. The
French are not, however, seeking
a Helen, but ducats, and they
propose to get those ducats by
Selling and conducting the custom
houses of the island of Mitylene,
which lies off Smyrna, and off old
llium, too. According to some
scholars Mitylene is ear old
Ilium than Smyrna is. But the
Homeric story and city are not
involved in this case at all-its
ducats only that are at stake.
The Sultan of Turkey owes
various French citizens, not sub
jects, money that he will not pay,
and France proposes to do her
own collecting at Mitylene.
The customs Of that island will
soon yield the sum aiming
due to French citizsns, the big
Orlando claim having been ad.
justed. All the customs houses OF
the island have been or will be
seized.
The island contains the i'm.
portant city of Mitylene. The is.
land is sometimes called Lesbos
and it is the largest island in the
&gean sea, which is full Of Is
lands. In ancient times it helc

assist in the work of relieving the
famine. These reports detail the
progress Of the members of the relief
commission through Sansi. Near

eating tree leaves and apparently en-
joying them. Later they saw hungry
birds in the woods fighting for dead
bodies. In a large number of in
stances young girls who were being
sold were purchased by relief com
missioners and sent to relief head
quarters, their families being notified.
On one day siXty-seven girls were
rescued. Local authorities caught
six dealers in girls and put them to
death in an iron cage, but seemed
powerless to stop the traffic. De-
tailed reports of the native relief com
missioners show the famine is wide
spread and suffering extensive.
