DasSador to 1urAen, memDer oI the pIe of the UnlIed States could only see the distress as 1 have seen It, Il Lney could see the gaunt figures O. children, the little orphans brought to ConstantnOpie by friendly 1urAlsA Oncers, the need of prompt aid wouiu be fully realized. If 1 dared repeat the tales 1 have heard, sworn to ana signed, they would make men and wo- men weep, and every one would see the need of sympathy and help" America is comfortable and rich. In contrast with the peace and quiet which are ours, let us think of the terror and the strife in Armenia. We have safe homes and the sweet com forts of the undesturbed comradeship of those we love. Their homes are in ruins; they are in lonely exile, and in place of family comfort there are only ruined or confiscated houses, starving bodies, stunned minds, shattered nerves, bruised hearts. With loneli- ness and pain and terror and uncer- tainty and hunger and cruelty and hate they keep constant vigil. The moan of a race moves across the heart of a stricken world. The latest cable grams say that the exiled. homeless Armenian survivors are eating grass and dying by the hundreds of starva- tion and exposure and disease. Many  of those who remain alive can be saved only by prompt and generous measures Of relief. Surely no more appropriate time for giving and giving liberally to this need can be found than when the nation is giving thanks for blessings received and misfortunes escaped. The various banks of the District will be glad to receive any sum of money for this relief work and on Thanksgiving Day at 10:3O a. m. in the Orpheum Theatre, the people will have a special opportunity in their National Thanksgiving service to ans and Syrians.
