The Honors of Atrocity.

The Sultan of Turkey has gra-

the diamond star of the Iftichar Or

the Sultan with the star and chain

amonds.
The honors are even-the hero of
the Belgain and Lusitania murders

of Armenian maSsacres. No one

honors or the respective fitness of
the mutual donors and recipients.
But to the intelligence and con-

the deportation of French families
