TO THE PEOPLE OF AMERICA

Herbert c. Hoover, the great Amer

ican Commission for Relief in Belgium
did his work so we'll that the people
saw he more efficient than the Germans
themselves. President Wilson has
called him home to be head of the
American Food Board. He Is still in
London, but he sends a call from
there to tae Americanpeople to get
read, for starvation. This call every
patriotic American should hear-eater,
farmer and college student alike. The
man who plarts another acre acre OF
corn this spring, or the student who
helps him cultivate it is surely a
PATRIOT meeting our greatest need.
London, April 21.-The first and
most important duty of the American
people to their allies is to economize
on foodstuffs. This is the appeal OF
Herbert C. Hoover. "If We do It,"
declared today to the Associated Press
we stand a grave chance of losing
the war, because our allies cannot
wil, need to give in. American can
upset these calculations"
Mr.. Hoover's observations were
after three weeks consultation with
members of the British, French and
Italin cabinets. He also investigated
The food and shipping situation and
o;ans for American cooperation. The
net result he arrived at was that be-
tween now and the next harvest 1t
would require a supreme effort Dy

and death and not finger was raised or word said.
 "It is impolite to interfere, is the German watchword.
 "The German apathy, or sympathy, we can understand The difficult thing is to reconcile the atrocities with what we have seen of the Turk as fighter. There are very few British officers who will not bear witness that, win- ming or losing, he has fought cleanly on the whole. This Jekyll-and-Hyde quality in the nature of the Turk is a perpetual riddle.
 "The Armenian refugees who reached Bagdad during the Turkish occupation were often we'll treated. There were small children of four and five years who were adopted into Turkish families. Kindly Turks had picked them up, as one might small puppy or kitten, and taken them in. After year or so in their new en- vironment they have forgotten their own language. This is the Ottoman nature all over. The massacres are an unpleasant business. The less civi- lized elements of heterogeneous army are turned onto the dirty work, and the better class Turk shuts his eyes to it as much as possible. Ar menians within his household are often treated we'll. An Armenian mistress enjoys the privileges of the home. A servant is we'll cared for; children, when adopted, are treated kindly. It is good work for Allah to take an in- fant and make good Moslem of it."

Some women were pushed into the river; others thrust over precipices. Twelve hundred left the two villages near Erzerum; four hundred only reached Ras-el-Ain The survivors were all women and children, there was not man among them nor a male child over nine years old.
 "A man in nearby hostel was the sole survivor of group of refugees who disappeared between Ras-el-Ain and Nisibin. They were taken into the desert and formed up in line, as in s Chinese execution, to be dispatched by the sword. There was shortage of ammunition and the sword was am- ployed for reasons of economy. While waiting for his turn, it occurred to the Arn,rnians that bullet would be an easier death, so he broke from the line. In the confusion the gendarmes missed him; he hid in the brush, es- capped and made his way to Bagdad. "The main features of all the mas |sacres were much thesame. The eml- grants, if they were not killed on the road, were taken to some depot where they were kept few days. Here they found large camp where quickly the rationing became difficult question Then notice" came from "Constanti- ''nople" that refugees of certain dis trict had been allotted land for culti- ivation, and they are started on fresh journey. This, they knew, was prob- ably death sentence, but they nour- l ished a thin hope.
 "For the first half day they were generally safe, as murder on large
 scale is deprecated near a town. No
 body, for example, saw anyone killed in Trcbizond, but few days after the Rrmenians had left the city theil bodies came floating down the river The desert is on-conductor. What | is done there leaves only a vague ru- nor. l "The refugees, although unarmed

 "Few Armenian women were SC fortunate. Many were killed with a: little scruple as the men. Plainness and good looks were fatal in different ways.

 Bagdad, May 30.-"One of the best things that is being done in Bagdad just now is the relief of Armenian women and children who have survived the massacres and are now living n Mussulman families" writes the Brit ish official eyewitness with army m Mesopotania.

Take an Interest,

If parents would keep the confidence of theii children and understand them, they must take an interest in their play. This does not mean that it is enough to watch them play. We must get their viewpoint, understand what 1t means to them and, if possible. play with them sometimes. At one time there was no place in crowded city life for children. Now the community has recognized that they have some rights and playgrounds with kindly su- pervisors are growing more and more numerous. The nation will be richey in years to come for thus providing foy the play life of it's children.
