Anti-Zionist Idea Hit

Louis Marshall, president of the
American Jewish Committee, has re-
piled to the suggestion for an anti
Zionist conference, made by Dr. David
Phillipson of Cincinnati. Ohio, saying:
"The Jews should be united with their
minds intent upon but one thing and
that Is. the winning of the war. am
afraid that you do not give due weight
to the ideas which underlie the Balfour
declaration. To combat Zionsm at this
time is to combat the governments of
England, France and Italy and. to
some extent. our government"
The following cable has been re
ceived by the Zionist Organization Of
America from the Copenhagen Zionist
Bureau: "BBritish Embassy at Copen-
hagen has written US as follows: We
should be obliged if you would inform
us what is the attitude among Zion
lists here and in the neighboring coun-
tries as to the proposal for league Of
nations. 1t would be of interest to
consider, the relation which should
exist between the Zionist state and the
league"

Help of American
Women Sought for
Oppressed Greeks
Representative Here Says
Allies Must Save 3,OOO,-
900 People From Turks

One million women in Asia Minor.
Thrace and Macedonia, where they live
in constant dread of the Turk and
Bulgar. spurred on by German "Kul-
tur" to the grossest crimes and out
RACES, have placed all their hopes for
freedom in the United States.
This is the message brought to New
York by Nicholas G. Kyriakides and
Christie Vassilakaki, from Athens. They
represent the "Unredeemed Greeks" as
Turk and Bulgar are called. These
unfortunates total more than three
million men. women and children.
NJ. Kyriakides is wealthy ship
owner of Mamora Island NJ Vassil-
akaki is q newspaper publisher. for.
mer member Of the Greek Parliament
and once a Governor in Greece.
u bespeak the interest of the women
of America in their unfortunate sisters
far across the sea- said NJ. Kyriakides
yesterday at the Hotel Netherland.
Here the women are on an equality
with the men, ard are appreciated ac-
cording to their ability and attain
ments.
"What a contrast is the position Of
their sisters in Asia Minor, Thrace
and Macedonia. There. for five CEN
turies, they have been ground under
the heel of the Turk. Yet, these
women and girls are. like the sisters
here, women of attainment. They are
educated refined and accustomed to TIE
Yefnements of civilization.
But the Turk will not let them be.
For centuries, as the world knows, there
have been sporadic outbreaks in Turk
ish centres against the Christians
Like the Armenians. the unredeemed
Greeks have suffered hardships at the
hands of the Moslems.
And the women have suffered mos
in the expressions Of the Turk and
Bulgar. who are only too willing to
wreck vengeance on the defenceless.
Hundreds have been carried off to
death, or TO conditions far worse than
death. Others have been starved and
many have been slain outright-by far
the most preferable fate

City Will Curtail
Work of Eye Clinics
AS a War Economy
Fitting of Glasses Will Not
Be Done Until Peace
Is Declared

The city Department Of Health will
soon curtail its clinical work on the
eyes of children to the extent OF sus-
pending the fitting Of glasses. This is
war measure and - only "A policy 10

This does not mean " says Health
Commissioner Copeland. that the de
rartment is to give any less attention
to the really necessary branches OF
TINS work. The clinics taxing care Of
the infectious and contagious diseases
of the eyes IN children will pe CON
tinued. 1t only means that we propose
to cut ouJ the luxuries. and it must be
understood that the fitting OF glasses
IS only d very minor part Of the de
partment's work. Last year OF The
hundreds of thousands Of children with
whom we deal only 5000 pairs Of
glasses were dispensed by the depart
ment.
"We have found thas 1000 Of
New York's physicians have already
gone into the Federal service. In the
forthcoming drafts 1000 more will un-
doubtedly be called This means tnat
the city viii lose. for TIE period of the
war, 90 per cent Of its doctors and sur
geons. The department. along with the
pubic, must do with fewer physicians.
and very material reduction in i.s
staff is anticipated
with this reduction some cuts must
necessarily be made IN the work which
we are able to do under normal cordi
tons. 50 far the elimination OF the
glass fitting feature Is the only one
upon which we have reached a definite
conclusion.

Immediately removed to .hat institu-

the infection was brought into the

The term "Spanish influenza seems
to have the effect of causing unneces-
sary alarm. The health authorities say
that the so-called "new disease" is
none other than the old enemy "la
grippe" which has had victims here, as
elsewhere, every year. The fact that
it has been given new name does not
add to its dangerous qualities. The
symptoms are the same and the results
are the same. according to the care
that the patient takes and treatment
pursued.
1t was said at the office of the
Health Commissioner yesterday that

Of the disease reported here, but as
"la grippe it was looked upon more

temporary misery to those who are.
