AMERICAN JEWS
 ARE HELD CAPTIVE BY TURKISH ARMY

The cable from the Swedish Am bassador at Constantinople that SAP American citizens are now in the hands of Turks in Damascus and oth- CT cities in Galilee, confirms the state ment issued by the Zionist Organiza- ton on March 14th last. At that time the Zionists reported that they had received from one of their conti- dentiaI correspondents in Palestine that the rapid approach toward Jer- usalem of General Allenby's army had made the American Jews resi- dent in the Holy City special objects of Turkish wrath. The Zionist cor respondent cabled as follows:
 Twelve days before the entry into the Holy City of Gen. Allenby, an or der was issued for the arrest of the Americans and their deportation to northern Palestine. But, when the raids began only a few helpless wom- en and children were found, all the rest having succeeded in hiding. The women and cTnldren were arrested, and according to this report, cruelty beaten in a vain attempt to compel them to reveal the hiding places of their husbands and fathers.
 These extreme measures falling the women and children were re- leased, and the leading men of the community summoned before the Turkish military governor who de- nounced all the Jews; and especially the Americans as disloyal to the Ot- toman government, and threatened dire things including the firing squad, unless the latter were handed over. As a result of these threats, seventy men emerged from their hiding places and surrendered to the military au- thorities and were deported. En- couraged by this surrender, the au- thorities instituted a reign of terror, which lasted for four days when the rest of the American Jews, sixty-twu in number, also gave themselves up in order to save their women and children from Turkish brutality. But on the following day there rang through the city the glad shout: The English are coming The terroriz- Ing Turks became panic-stricken and fled pell-mell, carrying their prison CTS with them, and their fate Is un- known"
