SPLENDID ORGANIZATION
Red Cross Says Armenian and Syrian
Relief Campaign Is Necessary.

The question has been asked why
the Red Cross does not undertake the
relief work in the Near East that is
being done by the American Commit
tee for Armenian and Syrian Relief.
The Red Cross found the machinery
Of relief already at work in the Near
East-the missionaries. who know the
people and speak their languages, and
all official representatives of the Unit
ed States had been organized by the
American Committee for Armenian
and Syrian Relief.
Channels of distribution were well
established. And the Red Cross asked
the committee to carry on all relief
work in the Near East territory, in
order that there be neither duplication
nor lost motion. The territory is Asia
Minor, the Caucasus. Armenia, Per
STA, and Northern Egypt.
The campaign to raise $50, 900 in
America begins Feb. 3. The quota for
Eastern Missouri is 100000 and the
amount asked of this county is so
small that it will likely be raised on
the first day of the campaign.

HOSPITALS FOR
THE PROSECUTED
U, s. Government Sells Equipment
For Nominal Sum For Worthy
Charity.

Fifteen hospitals, of 100 beds each,
including complete equipment and
200 motor trucks, were purchased by
the Armenian and Syrian Relief Com
mittee from the United States Govern
ment since the armistice was signed,
for a nominal sum. Buildings are al
ready available in Armenia. Syria and
Turkey for this equipment, and 1t Ia
now being moved from France.
More than two million Christian Ar
menians, Greeks and Syrians, who are
In distress because of persecution
from the Turks, will thus be provided
for. The money derived from the Ar
menian and Syrian Relief Campaign,
Feb. $40, will cause these hospitals to
be available for the use of those af-
1icted peoples.
The quota for the Eastern District,
outside of St Louis. is only $3.50, 900.
The United States will raise $3O,000,-
900 for the relief Of these stricken
peoples.

WHAT ARMENIA

HATED BY TURK
BEING CHRISTIANS AND PROS
Porous BASIS FOR FEELING
CENTURIES OLD.
DEATH CLAIMS MILLIONS
Driven Into Burning Desert and Into
Sea, Many Massacred, They Had
No Chance.

Where is Armenia and who are the
Armenians and why should America
give to an Armenian and Syrian Re,
lief Fund?
One of the oldest OF all the Chris
tian peoples Of the earth. That is the
Armenians. They live in province
that lies to the eastward Of Asia
Minor, west Of Persia and to the south
Of the Black Sea.
1t is, or would be, beautiful coun-
try, one of earth's Oldest regions. 1t
has been under the domination of the
Turk for very long time and what
the Turk touches he pollutes and de-
stroys. Despite the Turkish rule and
the constantly recurring massacres
and prosecutions Armenia was one of
the fairest parts of the Turkish EN-
pire. The Armenians made Of it a
wonderful agricultural country, a gar
den of the Near East. The land was
fertile and the sheltered valleys have
wonderful climate.
Armenians have been hated by the
Turks from the beginning. The Mos.
lem hated them because they we're in.
dustrious and prosperous and he hated
with n hatred that occasionally famed
into murder, loot and rape. When
the Great War came and Turkey
threw in her lot with the Germans. the
Tnrly a fhannn m fnrnunr. rid hip
empire of the Armenians.
It was an order that 100000 Ar.
menians be deported. OF these COO,
900 escaped in one way and another
The remaining 100000 were driven
into the deserts or Mesopotamia and
| Syria. AS they went they were killed
by bayonet, rife, club, knife and dag
ger. Some were driven over noun
tain precipices, thousands of Others
were driven into deep rivers, others
were driven into the heart Of the des
ert to die. With the Syrians, the
Greeks, and the Jews Of Western Asia
the Turks followed the same plan
Millions of people died.
II the survivors are not to perish
utterly from the earth America mus
give to keep them alive. That is VIII!
America is being asked to give fol
their aid. That is who the ArmenianI
are and that is something Of good.
The campaign for the relief of these
stricken people begins in Missouri

CORN SHOW WILL BRING
OUT THE BEST SEED

Corn and small grain are arriving
for the Liberty Corn Show which will
be held in connection with Farmers
Week at the University Of Missouri
College of Agriculture January 1924.
This, the sixteenth annual show of
the Missouri State Corn Growers AS
ISOLATION, promises to exceed the pros
poets of few weeks ago. The fact
that practically no corn shows have
been held in the State seems now to be
reacting favorably and many new ex-
hibitors are becoming interested in
the State show.
These shows annually call out the
best the State has produced, and the
fact that many sections are short of
good corn is going to mean that those
sections where corn escaped the
drouths and hot winds will be well
represented this year.
Farmers who have seed corn, or
good seed wheat, oats, soybeans or
oowpeas should make it point to
have the grain at this show not only
for their own benefit, but in order to
place it before those farmers who are
in need of good seed.

TONGUES OF CHILDREN
HANG OUT LIKE DOGS
Letter Received BY St. Louisan From
a kinsman in Syria Describes the
Awful Conditions That Exist.

Evidence as to the horrible condi-
lions that exist in che Near East is
supplied in letter that has recently
been receievd by Josef r. Stay, 1105
Chouteau avenue, St. Louis, from his
brother-in-law, teacher in the schools
at Hadchet, Mt. Lebanon, Syria
This letter was more than two
months en- route, and was the first
that had been received since Turkey
entered the World War, and practical
ly closed Syria to intercourse with the
outside world.
I'VE have had no help from the out
side,"- writes the Syrian, land what
little we received from the crops was
seized by the Turks. There are no
doctors or nurses and If you do not die
OF starvation you die Of disease
1.-THE tongues of my children and
those of my neighbors hang out like
those of dogs. l feed them little
bite at time in an effort to sustain
them.
an our little village of 900, 100 men
from 16 to &c died in one day. There
is no one to bury the dead. We lay
| the bodies on boards and the dogs
drag them to the graveyards.
Money is scarce If you borrow
So you pay 10 cents per day interest,
and for one bushel of wheat you re-
turn five bushels. Wheat flour is sell
ing at 50 cents per pound, and is
scarce at that"
This letter. written without view
to its publication, in small way
shows the conditions in the far-off
Holy Land. conditions that the Ar
menian and Syrian Relief Campaign
Is designed to relieve. Already much
has been done to provide relief. But
The work is so large, and the distress
so great, that America is called on to
contribute $30,000000 to save these
peoples.
The campaign to raise this fund has
been fixed to begin Feb. 8 and ehd
Feb. 10. Missouri has quota of
100000 to raise and in each county
an organization has been effected
ander the leadership Of James r..
Dunn, immigration Commissioner, Of
st. Louis. and there is no doubt that
Missouri will do Its share in the great
york.

The world was ablaze. France and

PRESIDENT ASKS
AMERICA To AID
IN RELIEF WORK
SAYS NATION SHOULD ADVANCE
HUNDRED MILLION TO SAVE
SMALL COUNTRIES.
DISTRESS IN HOLY LAND
Armenian and Syrian Relief Only Or
gsnIzation That Can Reach Peo-
Piles Who Suffer Most.

The proclamation issued by Presl
dent Wilson, endorsing the Armenian
and Syrian Relief Campaign, that will
begin In Missouri Feb. 3 and end Feb
10. has been accentuated by the Pres.
hdents recommendation, made since
he began his travels abroad, that this
Government provide a fund Of $780,.
100000 to loan to the stricken and dy
ing peoples Of the small neutral coun
tries that have been devastated by the
war.
Governmental aid cannot be extend
ed to the people of the lands Of which
the Armenian and Syrian Relief Cam.
paign will relieve. There are more
than four millions Of these Christian
peoples. driven from their homes by
the Turks and Kurds mainly because
they were Christians, who have no Ma.
tonal Governments.
The Armenians lived In Turkish ter.
ritory, and were prosperous before the
war gave the Turks an opportunity ia
massacre and torture them because of
their religious views, and at a time
when Christian America could scarce
ly join other Christian countries in ex.
tending the protection that in the past
had in measure deferred the Turks.
But the Armenian and Syrian Relief,
with its organization through the mis-.
sionaries, were able to maintain a sys.
nf hnI
lief. The Red Cross was unable to
give this relief, because of it's inability
to get into the country where the suf.
fering was the greatest.
Since the armistice was signed 9th.
er places hitherto inaccessible even to
the Armenian and Syrian Relief, are
now open, and the sums demanded are
much larger. Every cent of money
contributed in this campaign will &c
to relieve the distress of the stricken
people.
Every penny of the expense is pro
vided for in another fund, supplied for
that purpose, so that not one cent Of
the contributions is to wasted.
The "a eastern counties OF Missouri
organized under the direction of James
r. Dunn Of st. Louis. is asked to raise
quota Of 100000. The City of St
Louis will raise s450,000 of this
amount. leaving but s25O,0O0 for the
counties. This amount is divided w
into small quotas, so that each county
can do the work asked without much
effort, and without financial strain.
Missouri has met every call on hei
generosity in the past and as this will
in all probability be the last Of the
calls growing out of the great war. and
Missouri's resources have not been Sc
verely taxed, there is no reason to feal
that the response will fail, and it Ii
anticipated that large oVersubscrip
ton will result.

CATTLE.-The brisk tone of the
trade for the past several weeks was
instrumental in soliciting liberal ship
ping, and as a result the present
weeks supply is somewhat larger
than could be conveniently handled at
last weeks high basis. AS result,
barring very few exceptions, the trade
closes lower on all varieties. The on
~ kinds escaping the decline were the
strictly good beef steers, which,
through their scarcity, held steady.
Common to medium killing steers are
closing fully 15c to 25c lower than
last weeks best time, and while
stocker and feeder steers showed a
light decline, yet there is considerable
activity for them at the prices. Can
ners, mixed stuff and butcher cattle
also selling slowly, due to the fact
that the majority of the receipts en-
brace these varieties, and current
prices average 25c to Soc lower than
last weeks close.
HOGS.-In this department supply
is also somewhat excessive with a
general decline on all grades, The
strictly fat good weight hogs, how
ever, at the outside, will not aver
age more than 25c lower than a week
ago today, today's top being $17.7O;
but the worst feature Of the trade has
been light pig stuff, and light mixed
hogs or poor grade, which have been
very plentiful, these ranging from 81
to $3.50 lower than last weeks best
time on the best selection, and 81 to
So lower on the hghtest and unfinished
grades. This decline is only in line
with what we mentioned in our let

are as encouraging as they possibly
