RIVALRY AGAINST
AMERICAN PARTLY
DOWNED IN BRAZIL
Newspapers Are Taking Firm
Stand Against Elements
Fostering Anti-TaIk.

BY United Press:
RIO JANEIRo. May Il. CBy
Gable TO New York. THE newspa-
Pc Razao today took issue with the
elements that are fosterning anti
Americanism agitation in Brazil.
Referring to the speech OF Dep
uty Mauricio Lacerda in the cham
Der yesterday, the Razao said:
I'VE do not approve Of Lacerda' S
support of agitation against the
United States. which was begun by
Madeiros Albuquerque, who. using
his journalistic prerogatives. launch
ed accusations against that nation
which has always been friend Of
Brazil.
New York Has Lonodn Business.
Albuquerque is private citizen
and is unable to create difficulties.
However, the deputys opposition to
Frances transfer of her Brazilian
loans to the United States changes
the aspect Of the case. 1t is absurd
to deny the right of England and
France TO transfer their loans. The
war has changed financial dominion
from London to New York. Trans
fer Of the loan is TO our advantage
because il is against the interests of
the United States TO lower the value
Of Brazilian money. since we would
be obliged TO overpay for ours.
knowing the critical financial con-
ditions in Europe, transfer of the
Brazilian loans to the United States
is wise and reflects credit on Brazils
financial standing.
Ridicules Anu-Amcricans
The Razao ridiculed the charges
OF American imperialism, declaring
that Brazil lis not threatened with
conquest"
Among other things. Lacerda de-
cared in his speech that sincerity Of
the Monroe Doctrine must COM
mence with cancellation Of interna-
tionsl expansion and restoration Of
California and Texas TO Mexico.
IF the doctrine defends America
from Europe. who will defend
America from America ?" he asked.
American capital is aggressive and
the dollar has always been guarded
by cannons. This is proven in MeXi-
where dollar expansion has un-
dermined the government, system
aticaliy destroying autonomy.
Transfer of our debts TO the United
States would place Brazil under the
threat OF aggressive protection"

LIMERICK, ireland. May 81
This sleepy old city has resumed the
even tenor of its way after an excit-
ing experience with a government OF
strike leaders which seized the adj
ministration of the cOmmunitys af-
fairs and for a period of IL days reg
ulated the gOings and comings OF
some $4,000 persons in the face of
British soldiers and Irish constables.
The statement of one of the lead
ers that the British can now see
we do possess the ability 10 govern
ourselves may be taken as the real
motive for their action. The con-
trolling power in the leading Irish
organizations desired TO prove 10 the
government the falsity of the repeat
ed statement. that "Irishmen can
not govern themselves.
The Limerick experiment origin
ated in an incident dating back TO
last year when members Of the
Royal Irish Consta bulary searched
the house Of Limerick postal clerk
and found a revolver. For this he
was sentenced to a term in prison.
There he refused food and soon it
was necessary TO remove him to the
Clare workhouse to save his life.
There a party Of his friends enter
ed the hospital and clashed with the
guard. One constable was shot dead,
several others wounded, and the
clerk also hit He died within a few
hours.
Forbid Military Funeral.
The military authorities learned
that the dead clerks friends were
arranging TO give him a military fu-
neral at which all Limerick and
Clare men were TO appear in the
uniform of their military organiza-
ton. the Irish Volunteers" Orders
were issued from the military head
quarters in Limerick forbidding a
military funeral. The Irish leaders
decided to attend the funeral, in
their ordinary attire.
The funeral will never be forgot

WASHINGTON. May 5l.-Amer-

The war department at present is

NO SAND DANCES,
RULE IN CHICAGO
Egyptians Did, but 1t Was Diff

Authorities.
By Associated Press

By Associated Press:
CHICAGO, May C1.-The Egyp-
tianS danced in the sands when the
world was new and the fad even
gained great popularity in Chicago
last summer but it mas now oeen
officially barred.
With the approach of the bathing
season the city authorities have
issued an order against beach dane
ing in bathing suits.
1--WE have been liberal in beach
modesty as the half million persons
who frequented the beaches last
year viii testify" said Walter
Wright, secretary of the bureau of
beach supervision. I'VE even let
the women and girls of Chicago do
away with stockings. Indeed. We
have been more liberal than At
lantic City But there must be no
more dancing in the sand in bath
ing suits. It's positively i'm
modest"
Many Freak steps.
The dancing masters admit that
many OF the freak steps that
gained popularity in the big public
halls and Cabarets here last winter
originated in the sands OF Lake
Michigan. where thousands of bath
ers paired on and fox trotted 10 the
rolhcking music OF brass bands.
But the masters further say that
there really was no art in the sand
dances. The beach steps became
popular in the public halls prin
cipally because they were daring,
they declare.

OF the tragic chapters OF the war.
They were not isolated cases but in
some instances the experiences of as
many as 5000 refugees who had been
driven from their homes and forced
on journeys OF hundreds OF miles
from fertile Armenia into the borders
Of the Syrian desert. on the way hun
dreds at a time we're separate and
massacred often in the most isboli-
cal way.
Hundreds OF girls were torn from
the other members OF their family
and taken none knows where by the
Turks. Kurds or Circassians. Scores
were compelled to live in captivity
naked for months and suffering from
-blisters and beatings. Armenian
girls who escaped death were barter
ed like cattle. After their fathers or
relatives had vainly paid ransom for
them. Some saw their fathers or
friends murdered. In the tents OF the
Arabs in the Syrian desert many
were bound and forcibly tatooed on
the forehead. lips and chin TO mark
them as Moslem women.
TELD OF AWFUL
JOURNEY INTO DESERT.
Generally, the stories indicate that
the captives were moved sometimes
in large groups from Armenia south
ward toward the desert OF Syria. The
stories told by at least three Armen-
ian Christian girls deal with the
movement OF one OF these great
groups consisting OF . 900 families or
5000 persons. one story OF this aw-
ful Journey into the desert was told
by Takouhi Guezekuchukian, a girl
Of IS who with her father. mother,
four sisters and a brother was de-
ported from Hadjin. in Adana prov
inCe. in May. 1915. They were moved
southwark TO AleppO and thence fur
Their on toward the Syrian desert I'M
til the party numbered about 1000
families. At Sivaria, she said, they
were told that on payment Of 5000
Turkish liras they would be allow
ed 10 return.
The refugees said they could not
give this amount" the Armenian girl
told DR.. Kennedy. Then the Circas-
slams OF the tribe of Chechens who
nau COuAIoi OF lucIl separated out
100 OF the poorer families and took
them away. The same evening some
OF these people returned and said
they had escaped and that four
hours after they left, the Chechens
had begun TO kill them with iron
studded clubs. The remaining famil-
les raised 1900 pounds and sent
deputation OF % men with it TO buy
their security. The amount was re-
fused and the men were beaten and
sent back.
They raised an additional 500
liras and took 1000 Turkish pounds
in gold to the Circassiau Beys who
took the money and tried TO force
them 10 sign a paper saying the Ar
menians had paid no money TO them
The deputation refused 10 do this
and the 80 men were bound and
taken away"
