CONDITIONS AMONG
ARMENIANS EQUAL
WAR ATROCITIES
lBy Associated Press)

NEW YORK, April 23.-Horrors
among 100000 Armenian refugees on
the border between Russian and Turk
ish Armenia, unparalleled among the
atrocities Of the great war;" were de-
scribed in a cablegram from DR.. A. W..
Halsey, commissioner of the Caucasus
and Of the American committee for
Armchair and Syrian relief, made pub
lie today by the Presbyterian board
Of foreign missions.
DR.. Halsey asserted that famine and
disease were killing the refugees at
the rate of one-seventh of the entire
number each month, and added that
typhus had begun to make Its ap-
pearance among the sufferers.
ION the streets of Alexandropol on
the day Of my arrival" said the mes
sage, 1892 corpses were picked up.
This is far below the average per
day. At Ejchmaidzin, / looked for
time at a refugee burial. Seven bod
les were thrown indiscriminately tito
a square pit as carrion and covered
with earth without any suggestion OF
care or pity. The workmen told me
that the seven in this pit were the
first load Of 35 to be brought out of
the village that morning. The cart
had gone back for another load.
1.-THE refugees dare not go forward.
They halt on the border land OF their
home. The Turk, the Kurd and the
Tartar have taken possession of their
land and will hold it by force of arms.
A line almost like a battle line, from
the Black sea region where is located
the southwestern republic, with Kars
as it's capital to the Caspian sea where
Baku is the capital Of the AzerbaiJan
republic, together with a line of Turks,
Kurds and Tartars between these two
extremes, holds the refugees where
they are. The total number is more
than 10000. To these must be added
the local inhabitants also suffering In
Gescribable hardships.
Should our government delay in
reaching out helping hand to these
suffering people? The question OF po-
litical expediency ought to be forgot
ten in the presence of this catastro.
phe. These people look to America.
Our government is under moral obi
cations to respond"

Figure Eight is
German ''Hoodoo' .
tBy Associated Press)

BERLIN April ga student of
history has discovered that the figure
eight has played dramatic role in
the lives of the Hohenzollerns. Two
German emperors died in 1883. Two
attempts were made on the kaiser's
life in 1873. Frederick William Tvs
mental disease compelled him to
make way for regency in 1858.
The year 1848 brought revolutions
and a terrible humiliation for the
king. Frederick the Great suffered
his severest defeat in 1853 at Roch-
kirch. The thirty years war began in
1913 and brought unspeakable misery
to the lands of the Hohenzollerns. The
Great Elector died In 1888. Elector
Johann Sigismund in 1903 and Elector
Johann Georg in 1898. The browning
disaster to the Hohenzollerns came in
1918.
