FOREIGN MISSIONS
 WILL APPEAL FOR
 ARMENIAN RELIEF

Washington, September 23.-Information from Ambassador Morganthau at Con- stantinopie to the American board of commissioners for foreign missions con cerning the plight of Armenians in Tur- key banished to isolated towns for al- legged hostility to the Turkish govern ment, will be the basis of nationwide appeal to the American people for assist ance similar to that made for home- less Belgians.
 This appeal. it was learned tonight, will be issued from New York after the re- port of Charles R. Crane and James l.. Barton, representing the board, who con- ferred today with state department offi- cials.
 The plan for sending help to the Arr menians will be carried out without any official participation by the United States government, for 1t is understood that the Turkish foreign office has let 1t be known that it will brook no interference with its policy from any foreign power. The joint committee interested in lauching the appeal is composed of the commissioners and representatives of American and Eng fish colleges in Turkey.
 It was revealed at the state department today that since Ambassador Morgan thau's protest to the foreign office in Constantinople against reported i'll treat ment of Armenians. nothing further had been done by this government. Minor CO., sessions from the Turkish government re- suited from Amba ssador Morganthau's &C., tion Turkish officials claim steps taken against the Armenians were necessary as a war measure to prevent rebellion and plotting against the government.

 Most of the steel works are located outside of the big centers of popula- ton and often the town nearby is com posed entirely of men employed in the steel works. When times are dull and the works are shut down this com- munity is very badly off many men do rot have means of subsistence and the storekeepers although they might be willing to advance credit to their GUS
