GREATEST HOAX
SCARED Off U-BOATS

read of n new and wonderful subma-
rine barrage in the Straits of Dover.
There were details of contact mines
and electrically operated devices cal
culated to be impregnable.
The finder showed German sympa-
thies by getting in touch at once with
German authorities and sold the
papers for $4,000.
The hun ships thereafter kept away
from the. Straits Of Dover and went
around the north of Scotland.
But the wreckage, the charred
papers. the pro-German finder, all
were a plant. There was no such
barrage as was described and the
Germans were misled by a bluff.

BRITISH DRAFT LAWS OF WAR
hlSo Prepare Program for In
ternational Action in
the Air

\. =. a. Special to EVENING NEWS
LONDON, England, Jan. 21:-Eng-
land is working out an air
which viii place her in the front
ranks in aviation.
ord Wcir. secretary Of the air
ministry, outlines the scheme as fol-
lows:
Development of navigational in
structiou by sound and severe train
ing.
creation of an energetic meterolog-
zeal service.
Adoption of improved systems OF
wireless telephone and telegraph.
Marking of air routes, landing
places and airdromcs so they will be
plenty visible by day and night.
State encouragement of private en-
tcrprisc in the aviation field.
In furtherance of this program 4
bill has been prepared for parliament.
Cntil il is adopted the field of aviation
remains the monopoly of the govcro-
mont. War regulations still rule The
air.
Aside from the home program. ar
ticlcs have been drafted for submits
sion to Ga International convention
which it is hoped Will be called with
IN four or five months and whic1 viii
adopt regulations for flying from one
country to another.
Lord Weir would have the govern
ment acquire permanent control of
the military airdromes and lease
sheds to private operating companies,
charging a landing fee. This would
relieve private enterprise of the heavy
charge of constructing airdromes and
keep aviation still under the control
Of the government.
He would also have the govern
uient train and license pilots, that
pablo confidence may be ecurc
from the start in the safety of avia-
tioa.
Where there was n field for air
service and private enterprise was
lacking. he would have the govern
ment prepared to install mail, ex-
press and passenger service.

BRUTALITY OF THE TURKS.
.Armenians and Syrians Were Murder
ed by Thousands.

Verified stories of the dreadful
treatment of Armenians by the Turks
and Arabs were contained in a state
ment issued from New York by the
American committee for Armenian
and Syrian relief. These stories OBJ
tanned by Dr.. Loyal l.. Writ, member
aof the expedition sent to Turkey by
the commission who holds numerous
agfidavits from numerous narrators.
These tales constitute tragic chap
ter of the war. They were not isolat-
ed cases but, in some instances, were
the experiences of as many as o.
900 refugees who had been torn from
their homes.
Hundreds of girls were torn from
the other members of their iamitE
and taken none knows where by the
Turks Kurds or CirClssians. Scores
were compelled to live in captlVlt!
naked for months and suffering from
sunblisters and beatings. Armenian
girls who escaped death were barter
cd like cattle. After their fathers or
relatives had vainly paid ransom for
them some saw their fathers or
friends murdered. In the tents ol INC
Arabs in the Syrian desert many were
bound and forcibly tatooed on the
Torehead, lips and chin to marx tnem

stories told by at least three Armen-

One story of this awful journey in
TO the desert was told by Tkoukl
,GreueZekuchuhian, a girl OF eighteen
who Wi n her father, mother, four SIS
ters and a brother were deported
from Hadjin, Adana province, in May

A GREAT NEGRO.
SAYS the Monroe Jorunal:


"Oh, yes, there are great negroes
sometimes, and this one is Robert Il.
Motion, president of Tuskegee Insti-
tute of Alabama created and made
world famous by Booker Washing
ton.
'Dr. Motion is a coal black negro
and is not ashamed OF it. He has
been making some speeches in North
Carolina this week, and Governor
Beckett, who introduced him on one
occasion, says that he is great be-
cause he is speaking from the heart
and so sincerely, that there can be
no mistake. He says that he is L
good looking negro but would make
poor looking white man. He is
bubbling over with negro wit and
good humor and full of sense as
sound as any white man. He is at
home before any audience and
speaks with perfect good taste to
white, black, or mixed audiences.
His whole plea to the negroes is
to make themselves honest indus
trious and trustworthy, tu appreciate
the white people and to learn all
they can from them. They must
learn, he says, to cease trying to be
anything else but negroes as God
made them and to win confidence
and respect by deserving it. He
breaches at all times good will, kind
illness, good citizenship, manliness
and womanliness. He says their
salvation lies in industry and econ
omy and in obeying the law and
staying on good terms with the
white people. And he gives the
same counsel of patient forbear-
ance and kindliness to the white
people,

in gold to the Circassian Beys, who
took the money and tried to force
them to sign a paper saying the Ar
menians had paid no money to them.
The deputation refused TO do this
and the fifty-two men were bound
and taken away"
\ few days later according to the
girls story, the remaining families
were deported from Sivaria and after
eight days arrived at Shedadieh, Oh
the river Habour each of Deir-Es-
Zor.
"On the way. the girls story went
on. $50 men were separated and
taken away and soon after the Cir
cassians returned and divided among
themselves some of the clothing
which she recognized as belonging to
some of the men whom they had
taken away. The next day 800 more
men were taken away and killed. ,"
AS the refugees resumed their jour
ney on the following morning she
knew. They had been dubbed to
death.
Stripped by Arabs.
"a few days after this" reads the
narrative, "they were told that for
safety each family of women and
children was to go to the house of an
Arab. The Arabs robbed them and
stripped them of their clothing and
sent them back to the Circassians
who began at once to kill them with
knives, women and children, about
$50 in all. Twenty-Five boys and elev-
en- girls were saved and taken to the
tents of the Circassians. Takhouhi
was taken with her sister to the vii
lage of Gerbelleh, where she was
beaten because she did give them
gold they believed she had"
After having been kept a while by
a Circassian she and her sister were
sent to another Chechen and then to
the house of another Circassian in
Shegrush. She is now in the orphan-
age at Aleqqo and her sister is in an
Armenian house in Nusebin.
Other incidents, evidently dealing
with this terrible journey of the Ar
menians to Shededieh, were related
to Dr.. Kennedy by Araxa BarutiJlan,
e. girl Of seventeen who was a pupil
in the American girls school house
at Ada Baraar. in the western por-
lion of Asia Minor near Constantl-
NOBLE. She spoke English.
AT Shedadieh," the narrative says
"she saw a party of 500 men, women
and children all naked. 1t was in July
and their backs had been blstered
by the sun any many of them mad
bruises all over their limbs and bodies
and sores caused by the beating they
had received. During the heat OF the
day they would lie covered in the
water, as the pain of the sun was un-
bearable."
Before she arrived at Shedadieh
two of her brothers died at Bah and
her father at another place. AS the
Arabs were taking only unmarried
girls from among the refugees, her
mother told them she was married.
At Shedadieh her mother was sold
to one Arabs and she to another and
te girl lived in his house for a year,
