! Declaring that he believed The
American people could not and would
mot permit the cradle of Christianity
TO perish, Henry MoreeHthau, for
liner United States ambassador to
Turkey, pointed out The dire need Of
the poyelty-strjcken and starving
,Armenians and others in the Near
East,
"Ihe condition Of the people is APP
lpalling, said MIR. Morgenthau. -Four
hundred thousand of the starving
hosts Of Armenia and Syria are chill

ished, while their mothers stood, pow
erless to help, while their dearest
treasures died before their eyes
their own children for whom they
would have given their lives.
upon thse children, helped back
TO normal childhood, let us hope, by
the generosity Of the American peo-
pie, must descend the perpetuation

a race that early accepted Christianity
IA race that has been most cruelty
prosecuted by the barbarous Turks
and has gone to Calvary for its be-
lief.
AT Teheran and other cities, men,
women and children are Frustrated
on the streets from exhaustion and
dying from starvation. People are
grazing in the fields like cattle.
Children come to the rest houses with
flesh hanging ON their bones like
rags, voices gone, but eyes pleading

people all over Persia are falling
dead as fast as autumn leaves from

persons have died In the
past year in TeheFan alone from
starvation and the diseases which
follow malnutriti0n
"From one Armenian village comes
a sole survivor who tells story that

son Or warning, fifty Of the leading
men Of their churches were thrown
into prison, and there for ten days
starved and tortured. AT last, bound
four together, the survivors were led
out on the journey which they we'll
knew would sooner or later end in
Heath. Even then, to deny their King
would have set their feet back on the
road to life.
