This was the declaration of Mrs.
Lucia Ames Mead of Boston. i'm an
address at the woman's session of the
National Peace congress here today
She spoke on Five Dangerous Fal-
lacies." and continued:
Human nature is changing but
whether it changes or not the busi-
ness of the world will not much long
er tolerate two nations making a cock
Pit OF the peoples highways and drag
ging neutral nations into commercial
loss. A comparatively few influential
persons in a few influential countries
can and will end international war. 1t
is chiefly a question of statesman
ship"
Discussion of the commercial and
industrial aspects OF universal and
permanent peace was the feature OF
today's session. Special sessions we're
set apart for consideration of wom-
ans work in the interests of peace,
and for the part which universities and
colleges have played in the great prob
lem.
In explaining the attitude of busi-
ness men, Marcus M. Marks, presi-
dent of the National Association of
Clothiers of New York, said:
THE merchants OF the world have
done much indirectly to bring about
the improved relations between the
various nations. Let them now help
finance the peace movements, and add
unsclfish, practical cooperation in a
great cause,
THE terrible power of destruction
now possible through modern war ag
cncics and the still undeyelopcd air
warships, force upon all men the abb

culties by mutual annihilation.

sus with sickening abundance. The
worst particulars OF these narratives
cannot be mentioned, but they set

slaughter was unsparing. Even Greeks
and SyrianS were struck down with

dreds OF girls and women were NAL
treated and carried off TO the harems

many cases they went TO death with
their women clinging TO them. trying
10 save their lives. A large number of
women were wounded because of their
persistence.
Sixty men, who were brought down
into this district from Hadjin, are now
held as slaves.
Young Turks around Tarsus are to-
day trading Armenian girls for horses
and modern repeating rifles.
The entire ten days seem to have
been an ORGY OF lust and violence in
the name Of race and religion.
In the massacres of fourteen years
ago there was no such desire TO kill
women and children as has been evi-
denced in the last ten DAYS There
have been numerous instances of the
numbering OF women and children with
dcliberation and there are other in
stances where women were brought
ont one by one and shot down, the
bystanders clapplng their hands ut
each fresh execution.
