100000 sTAUN TO
DEATH IN TEAERAN
Persian Charge d'Affaires to
United States Appeals for
Stricken Country.

People all over Persia are falling
dead as fast as autumn leaves from the
trees. Twelve thousand persons have
died in the past year In Teheran alone
from starvation and the diseases which
follow malnutrition. Unless help on
a large scale is prompt the entire coun-
try will be threatened, Is the substance
of unofficial letters just received by
Mira All kuli Khan, n. D., Persian
charge d'affaires to the United States.
In making this information public,
Doctor Khan stated: 1.-THE Persian
government has not officially asked for
help. This Is not an official appeal
for help for my countrymen. As a hui
man being, however, my conscience
compels me to call to the attention of
the generous American public the fact
that my c%ountrymen are facing the
prospects of the winter with a shudder.
At the time the letters were written
thousands of dead awaited burial at
Teheran."
DIR. Harry Pratt Judson, is a repre-
sentative of the American committee
for relief in the near East, Is render
ing a great service with the 100000
a month which is sent him, but this
does not begin to meet the need.
Workers, food and medical supplies
must Immediately be sent to Persia on
a large scale If the cradle of the white
mans civilization is to be saved from
utter ruin.
In light OF the fact that Persia has
rendered great service to the allied
cause by remaining neutral, and that
now famine and plague threaten to
wipe her out of existence, Doctor
Khan was asked what part his coun-
try might take In the coming peace con-
ference. and he only said: 'That will
be settled later. Now, however, my
poor starving. plague-stricken country
must be helped. AS a consequence Of
the war, Persia's commerce has suf-
fered seriously. The government and
leading people have done their utmost
to relieve the situation, but without
further aid, food and medical supplies.
the winter will cut Off large sections Of
the surviving population"

BOY RAN AWAY TO WAR
Sent Home From the Battlefields by
General Pershing.

Glenn Hensen. fifteen years of age,
who, unlike the person who fights and
runs away. is a boy who runs to fight,
is back at his home in Hammond, Ind,
after having seen service on the bat
tlefields of France. The youth
brought with him the compliments of
General Pershing, who found the boy
after a long search and sent him back
to Mr.. and Mrs. William Hensen. his
parents.
When he was fourteen years old the
youth RAJ away and enlisted In the
American cavalry. He ate his Christ
mas dinner last year on shipboard,
he says, and has been In France ever
since. He boasts that he has been
over the top II times. The parents
have spent a large sum of money dur
ing the last nine months In an at
tempt to find him.

LIFE AGAIN BECOMES -
MORE VALUED THING
Change of Attitude Is Now Quite
Apparent--Fyers Take No
Risks.

One of the consequences of the ces-
sation Of hostilitles, which did not at
once manifest itself, is now becoming
apparent. 1t is the appreciation of the
value Of human life. The change Of
attitude, which necessarily is gradual,
already has become quite marked.
Less than a month ago thousands Of
men were being killed every day and
hundreds of thousands were exposing
themselves to death. Danger and
death were then the commonest things
In the world. The public had become
hardened by repetition to horrors and
suffering.
Men who ran the great risk, al
though they never were conscious of
their probable fate, could steel them
selves to their task because they re-
membered what hosts of others had
done. But SO quickly does nature re-
assert itself when given the chance
that there is a ~perceptible reaction to-
ward the normal. The wholesale
slaughter has stopped. the incentive
to expose ones self is gone, and life
has become a dearer and more valued
thing.
A mar who just conducted a party
of tourists to the old battlefiefds told
a writer that he had passed several
big aviation fields, and there was not a
single plane in the air. Almost no
flying Is being done there now.
Another sign of the returning sense
OF proportion Is the fact that a rail-
road wreck in which 6S were killed,
got a two-line head in the papers.

DAN CUPID LOSES CASE
Court Does Not Consider Call Of
Romance Strong Enough.

Court Does Not Consider Call Of
Romance Strong Enough.
Dan Cupid lost his case before
Judge Andy Calhoun In the city court
at Atlanta. Ga.
Just as the judge was about to pro-
nounce sentence on a young woman
who had been arraigned on a charge
of vagrancy. a soldier stepped forth
from the audience and announced
that he wished to marry the accused
young woman Mrs. Maybelle LAYER,
the defendant. smiled her assent, and
the court halted his sentence.
But Assistant Solicitor Ed Hill OBJ
jected. He remarked to the court
that nothing was known of the young
woman, and that she might be per-
mitted to commit bigamy; that she
might already have a husband.
Mrs. LAYER admitted that she had
been twice married. but insisted that
she is free now. She said she had
been married In Florida. but would
not give the name of the town In
which she had lived, nor any further
information.
Judge Calhoun did not consider the
call of n strong enough, and
declined the request OF the soldier.
He proceeded to sentence Mrs. LAYER
to spend six months In the county
home for girls.

British Reporter Thinks He Finds u
