Death, Now In Turkish Harems.
Thirty thousand Armenian girls,
spared from death during the Turkish
massacre In the Van and Bitlis regions
and now leading lives of slavery in
Turkish harems, have appealed to the
American Red Cross for aid In obtain
ing their freedom.
Nothing was heard from these girls
for months after their capture and 1t
was believed they had been slain by
the Turks. Recently pitiful appeals
for liberation from harems in Anatolia
and European Turkey indicate their
plight.
Colonel Haskell, high commander for
the allies to Armenia, has appealed for
military aid as background for diplo-
matte negotiations. The American Red
Cross is asked for financial backing
necessary for the work Of liberating
the women.

FRANCE WANTS LUMBER
Purchase Of American Timber Advo
Gated by French Interests.

Cdteo Uy rTcUSU sHecTSoD
The purchase of American lumber
by France is advocated by certain
French interests, In order to supply an
estimated need of IA. 900 board feet
annually for several years, according
to information secured by the bureau
of markets of the United States de-
partment Of agriculture. The species
recommended are Douglas fir and
Southern pine. At present the tariff
and freight rates in France on Amer
lean lumber are much higher than on
lumber coming from European coun-
tries, and American measurements are
different from those employed in Eu-
rope. These difficulties are not con-
sidered insurmountable, however, and
an effort will probably be made to
overcome them.
