Nothing Cheap
 About Whale Milk Expert Declares
CBy Associated Pressl

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 2S. - Five dollars a quart-not a cent less would be the price he would ask for whales's milk if he established a whale dairy, according to Captain J. B. Loop, a sea mammal expert of Long Beach, near here, who recently returned from a whale hunt in Mexi- can Pacific waters.
 Captain Loop has not determined, however, to establish a whale dairy; he merely made that announcement because Arthur de Ell, of COY North 18th street, Omaha, Nebraska, who had heard of the seaman's knowledge of whales and a small cargo of the lactea1 fluid of leviathans that he re- gently brought to Southern California, sent a request "reserving" a sample of the milk.
 Captain Loop said he would send a sample to de Ell
 He permitted members of the B. P. O. Elks to sample the whale milk he took to Long Beach. They declared it richer and more palatable than that of COWS.
 The captain, who has contributed much interesting information to the general knowledge of whales, says the first thing to do in order to ob- tain the milk of one is to catch the whale He has not made public how he does it.

FEAR OF TURKS DRIVES MANY
 ID REFUGE
(By Associated Press)

DIARBEKIR, Turkey, Dec. 29. - Fear of the further massacres is causing numbers of Christians in this region to abandon their homes and seek safety in the territory occupied by the British, whose nearest post is at Ourfa.
 For days there has been steady procession of carriages, containing families with all their possessions, on the road to the southward. Many of them are headed for Aleppo, which means hot, dusty journey of several hundred miles across the plain.
 The immediate cause of this exo- due of Christians is the attitude of their Moslem neighbors, coupled with the notorious reputation that Diar- bekir won for itself in the massacres and deportations few years ago, but back of it is feeling of restlessness because of the fact that months have passed since the armistice, and as yet nothing has been done to guarantee the security of the non-Moslem popu- lation.
 The Near East Relief, the American organization which is distributing aid to the survivors of the massacres through a station in Diarbekir, has succeeded in obtaining assurance from the authorities that the Christ ians will not be molested by the gov ernment, and that they may resume their occupations. This assurance. however, applies only to the authori- ties, and means that the Christians are only to consider that if disorders begin, they will not, at least, be at the open instigation of the government It does not entirely promise protec- ton, and therefore the Christians afraid that the Moslems may turn against them at any moment, are electing to seek safety in flight
 The situation is having its effect on the work of the relief organiza- ton in recovering the Christian girls who were carried off, during the de portations, to Moslem harems. This work has been going on for weeks the relief workers being undismayed by the thought of personal peril. Now however, the Moslems are threaten ing the girls with death if they per init themselves to be rescued, and many of them are afraid to leave their masters.
 Large numbers of these girls re- main to be recovered. In the early months of 1915 about 6S,O00 Christ ians were exiled from Diabekir, and from their ranks were taken hum dreds of the prettiest young women Even some of those who escaped, and remained hidden in the vicinity throughout the deportations, later sold themselves to the Turks. con frOnted as they were with the altern- ative of doing this or of starving to death. The condition of these Chris tian girls is one of the most tragic problems that confront the relief workers who state that many of the girls, in their shame, have killed the children of their Moslem fathers.
