CALLS D. c. TYRANNY
WORSE Than RUSSIAN
Senator Pomerene Files Report in Sup
port of District Delegate Bill.
Urges Suffrage.

Declaring that the political tyranny OF
Russia is not greater than that under
which residents Of the District live. Sen
ator Atlee Pomerene. of Ohio, chairman
Of the Subcommittee on judiciary OF
the Senate District Committee, yesterday
filed his report in support Of the District
delegate bill. Senator Pomerene an
nounced that in his opinion the bill did
not go far enough in granting the Dis
trict only an elective delegate in the
House
The report says in part:
while sound governmental policy
would seem 10 suggest that the national
government should have control OF the
District rather than that the District
should have control of the government
buildings and property within the Dis
trict, We believe there is no valid rea son
why the people Of the District should
not have some voice in the national gov
ernment, as well as those who are living
outside Of the District and in other sec
uons OF the country. The United States
is a representative government
The pending measure. II passed. gives
to the citizens of the District only the
right TO elect a delegate to the House Of
Representatives., who may, on the floor
represent its citizens and present their
cause without the right to vote It gives
them only the same right in national leg
islation that the people living in the
Territory Of Alaska now have. II the
people OF Alaska have the right to be
thus represented, by what process of
reasoning can the people Of the District
be denied the right? Are they less patri-
otto or less intelligent than the people
or Alaska or the people Of our own
Statee?
The majority of the committee believe
that 1t (sufrage) should he granted to
both men and women alike who have
continuously resided in the District for n
period OF ore year, and who have con-
tnuously resided in the precincts in which
they vote for thirty days and who meet
the following qualifications: That they
may be able to read the Constitution OF
the United States in English and write
their own names"

PLEADS FOR AID

Henry Morgenthau, Former
U. S. Envoy to Turkey, Ad-.
dresses Audience.
TELLS OF GREAT NEEDS
Paints Pictures of Distress Among the
Persecuted-Urges Funds for
Immediate Relief.

Avoiding the narrowing details OF the
massaCres and the persecution Armenlans
have been subjected to by the Turks.
Henry Morganthau former United States
Ambassador to Turkey, yesterday at
Rauschers made an earnest appeal to
Americans for monetary aid to relieve
the suffering caused by deportation Of
Armenians from their former homes in
Turkey He pictured the destitute peo-
pie wandering around in deserts and
mountains, homeless foodless and almost
Clotheless.
Mr. Morganthau made the appeal in
the name Of the American committee for
Armenian and Syrian Relief.
The Armenians were living Just as
quietly and peacefully as possible in
friendship and close contact with their
Turkish associates, when suddenly they
were picked out to be deported." he said
Il do not want to give you too many har-
rowing pictures; I think It wiser not to
go too much into detail but ! will say
that I have been requested 10 state that
most OF the stories If not all, that have
reached here are founded on facts
You can see the need, when 7 tell
you these people are now exposed to the
cold with scanty clothing ard nothing to
cat. With disease rife among them. dying
from starvation. We are the only peO-
ple to whom they can appeal for help.
The people OF other nations are afraid,
or are unable to do It. The United States.
with its hundred million inhabitants, has
contributed the irs s.gnihCant sum Of $50.
10000 TO al! tho suffering humanity
abroad. We ought to hang our heads in
shame.
II you folk could only see the dis
tress as have seen it: II you could see
those gaunt little figures OF children:
II YOU could have seen those little or
Hhans brought in by Turkish officers 70
Constantinoplc. and I want to say that
the Turks as class are not bad peo-
pie. YOU would see the need OF aid. Il
you could have seen the two little chill
dren who had lost their parents and
everything, mere skeletons covered over
by skin, or the women I have seen come
into Constantinople, who in order 10
reach there had to become MosIemsi II
you could have heard the tales I have
heard. sworn TO and signed, that would
make you weep If ! dared repeat them
to you, YOU would see the need Of sym
pathy and help"
