The American cpmmi..cc has given
clothing and bedding to $4,000 OF the most
needy refugees and has also provided
large quantities of tea, sugar, kerosene
and fuel where most needed. Daring the
summer of 1916 the work of repatriation
was undertaken and hundreds of farmers
were returned to their homes in the pro-
vince 81 Van and supplied with oxen, pIows
and seed and 50 forth. This mos; promis-
my work, however, was interrupted BY the
evacuation of that region BY the Russians
IN August, 1916, and the COMMITTEES has
decided that the time for repatriation on
a large scale viii be only after final VIE
tory over the Turks has been won.
Among the refugees arc comparatively
few men as more Of them than Of women
and children fell in the massacrcs. As n
result there arc in the Caucasus today
20 600 iathCrleSs children in need of i'm
mediate aid. OF these the American com
mite is already helping 5000 by giving
them q small monthly grant for food in
their homes.

"Of the 100000 refugees in the eau
.caSus and the conquered provinces of Tur-
Key, 100000 are without employment and
dependent on charity. The committee has

the fact remains that the picketing
