TURKEY PROCEEDED TO AT
TEND TO THE ARMENIANS.
(By William Howard Taft)

Now why the need of money fol-
the Armenians? You know their
story? Abdul Hamid was the Sultan
of Turkey. He was the sweet-scented
individual who in 1896 deliberately di-
rected the killing Of 100000 Arme-
Mans Who are the Armenians
They are one of the oldest Christian
peoples in the world. They lived in
a province that lies north of Mesopo-
tamia, east of Asia Minor, west of
Persia and south of the Black Sea.
1t is a province of mountains and val
leys-not only rich but fertile. 1,8O0,-
900 Armenians lived in that country,
cultivating the valleys and made
them blossom as the rose" The
Turks hated them because they were
Christians; hated them because they
were industrious, and enjoyed the
prosperity that comes from industry.
Later when Turkey entered the
great European war as the ally of
Germany, she invited German officers
into her army. Her army was shortly
differed by German officers, who d.
rected that army to go into Armenia
and deport 100000 Armenians,
which they did. 100000 escaped. The
other 100000 were driven by that
army to the desert of Mesopotamia
and Syria, and in the drive the army
deliberately killed men, women and
children, by rifle ball, by bayonet, by
knife, by driving them over precipices,
by driving them into deep running
men women and
children! Half of them were deport-
ed to Asia and half to Mesopotamia.
Out of those deported nearly 100000
died of starvation.
Then Germany turned the Caucasus
over to Turkey-in that kindly, faith
erly way! That is the story!
A friend of mine who was on the
border of Persia told me that he had
gone to a German officer and said
"For Gods sake, can't you stop the
butchery of these men, women and
and the German officer
clicked his heels together and said
'Stand back, the time for mercy has
passed"
This is the story of that unfortu-
nate people. The Syrians, Greeks
and Jews in Western Asia have suf- |
tered the same kind of barbaric treat
nent. The Armenian and Syrian re-
ief has been organized for some years

distressed people. 1t has received and
most efficiently expended more than

EXPERT TESTIMONY.

In the contagious diseases with
which the American public has here
tofore had acquaintance, no person
afflicted with a given disease could
'give" it to another until the progress
of the disease was well marked, and
in some cases not until recovery had
begun. In the influenza, the opposite
appears by all expert testimony to be
the case. A person who is just taking
the influenza and who has so little in
dication of illness that he himself does
not yet even feel indisposed, can pass
on the infection in a virulent form.
You may be sitting chatting this
evening with a friend who to all ap
pearance is in his usual health, and
tomorrow he may be violently i'll with
the disease and you may have con-
tracted it from him and also be laid
up. Just such instances are on record.
This being the case, the point of
quarantining houses instead of public
assemblages is considerably blunted.
1t may be of service to quarantine
man in his home, but if he is allowed
to gosabout until he is visibly i'll, the
damage he may already have done may
we'll be incalculable.
Influenza may be fear disease, but
it is also a germ disease, and the
germs appear to flourish and have
their being where they are little sus-
pected
With a practically new disease
among us, with the habits of the
germ not yet fully established except
for the fact that they act sooner and
more viciously than any others, it is
hardly safe for the layman to go up
against the practicing physician who
observes the germ every day and who
keeps himself informed by reading the
testimony of experts.

THE CASUALTY LISTS.

It will be with profound relief that
every American citizen will read the
statement that the last of the casualty
lists have finally reached Washington
and that thousand extra clerks have
been set at the task of issuing them
as promptly as possible.
Ever since the armistice was signed
those who have had members of their
family in the combat divisions in
Europe, have felt that their security
was perhaps false and that any day
the blow might fall upon the house
hold, telling of the death of son or
husband. There seems in some quar-
tiers to be feeling based on consider
Ible knowledge of the circumstance
that the whole matter of assembling
and transmitting casualty lists has
been handled in a laundering and in
efficient manner. To an outsider the
difficulties of gathering such lists and
sending them correctly across the
ocean seems almost insurmountable
But whether those in charge of this
tremendously hard job could have
done better than they did, or whether
they have in reality rendered remark
ably prompt and accurate service in
view of the obstacles they met, the
American family will be grateful to
know that the suspense will soon be
over and that when the present list
is completed, no new heartaches from
announcement of losses need be
feared.

AERIALPOLICE
 ARE ON DUTY AT VENICE

VENICE, Cal, April Is (by Asso- ciated Press).- A proposal made moro in jest than in earnest resulted in giving Otto Myerhoffer the distinction of being among the first few aerial police officers in the United States.
 City Trustee Edward A. Gerety at a recent meeting of the board pro posed that the office of aerial police be created, more as joke than any thing else When his fellow members on the board of trustees considered the help which an aerial policeman could give in settling disputes of fishermen off shore and experimenting speeding motorists, the proposal lost its comic aspect and the position was created by unanimous vote.
 Meyerhoffer will wear the reguia- ton uniform of the Venice police de" partmept and will be given regular shift ill which to work. He will ne paid for the time actually devoted to city work at rate to be recom- mended by the police commission.
