To wiring confessions from the Ar

SUBSEQUENT massacres. the Turks re-
sorted to wholesale and systematic
torture. Ambassador Henry Morgen-
THAI, in an article just published in
the Worlds Work, repeats a CONVEX
sation he had with a Turkish official
which reveals the incredible ferocity
of that government in its deliberate
campaign to exterminate the Arme-
nian roce:
"One day I was discussing these
proceedings with a responsible Turk
ish official. who was describing the
tortures inflicted" says Mr.. Morgen-
than. HE made no secret of the fact
that the government had instigated
them, and, like all Turks of the Off
cial classes, he enthusiastically ap-
proved this treatment of the detested
race. This official told me that all
these details were matters of nightly
discussion at the headquarters of the
Union and Progress Committee. Each
new method of inflicting pain was
hailed as a splendid discovery, and
the regular attendants We're constant
lily ransacking their brains in the eff
fort to devise some new torment. He
told me that they even delved into
the records Of the Spanish Inquisition

to build ships. They shall be encour-

to build ships. They shall be encour-
aged to do so. There will be plenty
of work for every official yard.
ION the other hand the government
expects to continue to supply the ma
terial and direct the vast energies
now devoted to shipbuilding. To take
advantage of this established industry
and restore to the world its lost ton
mage is a natural business like pro-
cedure It offers America the chance
now to serve humanity by putting
ships on the high seas to carry ma
terials for destruction and to be of
service to our own people and the
allies. We will look to the West Coast
to continue the place it has main
tanned and to the yards in the East
and South and i'm the Great Lakes
region to increase their output"
Mr.. Schwab then commenting on
the program said:
1.-THE present program calls for
100000 tons of merchant ships, re-
presenting something like 5000 YES
sells Today we have built only about
2,5O0,000 tons, ard we will not have
completed our program until about
six times more work has been done"

reason for this decision was not only,
a natural expression of feeling against
the enemies of the nation, but prac-
teal trade boycott as we'll, as the di-
rectors of the Philharmonic Society
and its distinguished conductor, Josef
Stransky, saw the playing of the COM
positions by living Germans meant an
actual payment of American money to
individual enemies.
In accord with the best patriotic
thought Of allied Europe, however, it
was also decided to retain on Phil
harmonic programs the works of the
dead German masters, since - aside
from the fact that Germany could de-
rive no possible benefit from their per-
formance-the Teuton musicians of
other days were entirely unaffected by
modern Prussianism. In the case OF
those who lived when the modern
Prussian spirit was in the bud, they
were actively in revolt against Junk
erism - like Richard Wagner, who
Waged an open war against imperial
ism.
In fact, the art of Bach, Beethoven,
Brahms, and Wagner is acknowledged
the world over. 1t Is hardly too much
to say that Wagner's greatness was
not recognized by Germany until the
rest of the world had acclaimed him.
1t has generally been decided in Eu-
rope today that to refuse to acknowl-
edge the music of universally recog-
nized masters of the past is in way,
only a sort of useless artistic annihi-
lation.

RUSSIAN MUST
WORK OR he
CANNOT EAT
Constitution of New Soviet
Republic Has Some Dras-
tic Provisions.

Moscow, Aug. 1-(Correspondence
Of the Associated Press)-"He who
does not work does not eat" is the
chief motto of the Soviet republic
embodied in the constitution approved
by the Fifth All-Russian Soviet Con-
gress and just printed and put into
general circulation.
The right of holding office and vot-
ing for officials is confined exclusively
to men and women over Is obtaining
their livelihood by productive and
publicly beneficial labor, as we'll as
those persons engaged in domestic
economy which affords to the former
the possibility of productive labor.
For eXample-workmen and employees
of all categories, enga ged in industry,
trade, agriculture, ETC., peasants and
Cossack farmers who do not engage
hired labor for profit"
Soldiers of the Soviet army and
navy and citizens who have been
workmen or soldiers but are incapaci-
tated are also permitted to enjoy
franchise. Foreigners residing in
Russia who fall within the soviet's
definition of workmen and soldiers
are also granted the ballot.
The right of franchise is specifically
denied to all persons, regardless of
whether they fall within the category
of workmen and soldiers, if they hire
labor for profit, live on unearned in
come, such as interest from capital or
income from property or enterprises.
Monks and elergymen are also denied
the right of franchise, together with
officials and agents of the former po-
lice, members of the former reigning
house, insane persons and convicts.
Absolute prevention of the exploita-
ton of one man by another is the
chief avowed purpose of the Soviet
constitution. Consequently it abo1-
ishes all class distinctions, confscates
all real estate, including that Of the
church, nationalizes all woods, min
erals, waterways and live stock and
authorizes labor control of all indus
tries, such as mills, mines and rail-
ways for the purpose of 'insuring the
authority Of the working people over

The statements made by Edward

fears expressed in some quarters that
the signing of peace terms might
bring a sudden slump in business and
result in losses to shipbuilding con-
Germs and shipyard workers.
The statements were made through
the medium of the Emergency Fleet
News published by the Government
in the interest of the shipyard indus
try The statements forcefully set
forth in unmistakable language the
determination of the United States
to put forth every endeavor toward
the commissioning of one of the
greatest merchant fleets the world
has ever known.
Mr.. Hurley said:
1.-THE United States Government is
building a great fleet of merchant
ships for permanency, fleet to serve
the world in years to come, to carry
American trade and to represent truly
the ideals and greatness of the Amer
lean nation. The project to build the
fleet was conceived in the emergency
of war, but it has never been intend
ed, nor is it intended now, that this
great movement shall lease when the
war is ended.
1--WE are only now beginning our
progress Of ship construction. We
shall continue to use all facilities OF
shipbuilding that business economy
will permit. I mean by that that all
ship builders who live up to the ex-
pectations placed in them by the gov
eminent will be expected to continue
