Greek Refugees
Tell of Outrages

Salonikl.-Hlgh upon the hills of the
bustling Macedonian city Is n pic
turesque settlement where 3,OOO
Greek refugees, driven from Asia
Minor by the massacre Of 1914, make
their homes. Hundreds of other
Greeks who were interned by the Bull
garians in Dobrudja during the war
have Joined them recently. the
houses In this refugee camp were con.
structed by the Greek government. A
space equivalent to large New YORK
furnished room Is allotted to ram
lily of from FIVE to eight.
The settlement has been given the
pretentious name of 1.-THE Quarter OF
the Trlumvlrate" In honor Of Greece's
three great modern patriots-Premier
Venlzelos, Admiral Kountouriotis and
General Danglais, who, repudiatlng
King Constantine, espoused the cause
Of the allies when Germany sought to
win over the Greek army.
Many Of the people have been
helped by the American Red Cross

slowly up the steep mountain road.
The refugees had just come from
Dobrudja, to the south of Roumania,
where they were practically exiled by
the Bulgars. They had been nearly
two months on the way, and virtually

from the American Red Cross, which

what 1t was during that time to have
roof and shelter. Under the Bulgars
they were forced to live In the open
fields or in dugouts or stables. Eight
cen hours day at hard labor under
constant intimidation was the lot of
some of them. Three-fifths of
pound Of black bread day was the
pitiful recompense they received from
the Bulgars. Often those too weak to
work were beaten by their ruthless
masters.
One refugee declared to the CORE
spondent that at one time there were
more than sixty deaths a day among
the refugee colony In Dobrudja from
malnutrition, exhaustion and expos
ure. In certain sections. he said, the
Greeks were forced to live largely on
the rlnds of watermelons which the
Bulgarian soldiers threw in the
streets.
Tell Bitter Experience.
The older residents of this refugee
suburb" Of Saloniki. most Of whom
had fed from different parts Of Asia
Minor during the wholesale massacres
there in 1914. have bitter experiences
to relate about their treatment by the
Turks. Some Of these people lived in
the city of Phocis, where the whole
Christian population either had been
driven out or were killed by the Turks.

the outrages Of the Moslems. The
worst story was that told by an INTEL

that in butchershop opposite her
home in Phocis she saw the Turks
take a young girl who was considered
the most attractive In town and cut
her body into pieces. They hung the
pieces on meat hooks and offered
them for public sale. she said. to show
the Turks contempt for Greek Chris
tians.
What most impresses the eye of the

furrowed faces. They have been

until they have reached the. point al

DUBLIN. Dec. 90 UNITED Press
The attack yesterday upon NIscount
French. Lord Lieutenant Of Ireland,
failed because the field marshal's car
was two minutes ahead Of schedule
when It reached Ashtown Station, it
was learned today.
The Lord Lleutenant's automobile
was fired upon from ambush yesterday
afternoon as he was motoring from
the station to the vice regal lodge here.
The attackers. according to informa-
ton today, had planned to blockade
the road near Phoenix Park TO Lord
French's automobile.
They expected to draw cars across
the road Just before the vice regal
motor car arrived. This plan, 1t was
said. was frustrated by French's motor
being ahead Of time. There was per
slstent rumor French had been wound
ed, but this could not be verified.
The dead member Of the attacking
party was Identified as Martin Savage,
a grocer's assistant.
Police were working on several clues
as TO the identity Of the members Of
the attacking party.
NATURALIZATION Of Savage was con-
sldered an important step. From dOcu-
ments found on the dead mans body, 1t
was believed the authorities would be
able 10 round up the remainder OF the
party. The men were eaid to have 'es-
capped on bicycles.

attempted crime. The military has

The incident has stirred Dublin pro-
foundly. Observers differ as TO its prob
able effects. Many considered it likely
there will be a reaction against eX-
tremism which VIII make the govern
ments tasks simpler in the future.
All indications today point 10 a care
fully laid plot. The fact that many
persons must have known the act was
planned, II is believed, will simplify
the work Of police in rounding up sus-
poets and probably getting the guilty
persons.
