the Allies are responsible for a re-

The story was circulated after the

RED CROSS GIVES
100000 FOR RELIEF
WORK IN NEAR EAST

The Red Cross war council has ap-
propriated 100000. TO be expended
in July for relief work in the Near
East, through the American commit
tee for Armenian and syrian relief
The Red Cross will appropriate a like
amount for each of the five remain
ing months of this year II the work
Of the committee is not sufficiently
hampered by the Turkish govern
ment to make further grants mad
visable.
The American committee Is the
only organization outside Of the Red
Crescent controlled by the Turkish
governmentD. which is allowed to adj
minister relief in certain portions Of
tn Turkish empire. Its field of oper-
ations includes not only Asia Minor
and those portions of Armenia ana
Syria that are in the ottoman en-
pire. but It also includes a large sec
ton of Armenia now dominated by
the Russian army. as well as the
Russian Caucasus, Persia, Mesopota-
mia and portions of Egypt and Ma
cedonia, into which refugees. Armen-
ian. Syrian. and Greek have fled in
large numbers. With the exception
of the work being done by the Jew
ish relief committee, the American
committee is the only agency organ
ized for affording relief in this great
area
Cooperating With Relief Agencies.
TIL making of this appropriation by
the Red Cross is in accord with the
policy Of the Red Cross to cooperate
with relief agencies in the theater of
war to the end that there shall be the
utmost aid afforded. while overlap
ping of effort is as far as possible
avoided. The appropr alton is made
upon application of James l.. Rarton,

tary. respectively. OF the American
