ALLENBY STOPS
CRAFT OF TURK
Persecution Of Armenians and
Confiscation of Property Pre-
vented by English Officer.


The most arbitrary city boss in the
world, it seems safe to say, as we'll as
the most INSCRIPTIONS politician of
modern times, has turned up in Aintab,
Armenia, to judge from an official re-
port recently made by Major Stephen
Trowbridge, under Gen. Edmund a. 81.
Allenby's orders.
He is Turk named Besim Bey. Until
the Near East Relief agents stopped
him, he practiced upon the terrified
Armenians such forms of super-graft
as might well make every other cor
rupt politician in the world green with
envy, and sucn cruelties as make all
other heartless rulers, from Nero
down, seem sweet and gentle char
acters. His office was that of Munic-
ipal Chief Accountant of Aintab; but.
as all dishonest office-hoIders know,
it isn't the job that matters, but the
sugar-plums that .go with it. Besim
Bey piucked sugar-plums with both
hands, night and day.
Even inspired city bosses have their
day. Besim Bey's came when the
Near East Relief agents found that no
thorough Armenian relief work could
be done in that city while such condi-
tons of terrorization existed. General
MacAndrew ordered the arrest and
removal of the six worst Turks in the
ring that ruled the city, and Besim
Bey qualified, as usual, for first place.

Convincing Testimony,

Given By Many Wauseon People
Experiences told by Wauseon peo-
ple-Those who have had weak kid
neys-
Who used Doan's Kidney Pills
Who found the remedy effective
Such statements prove merit.
You might doubt an utter stranger.
You must believe Wauseon people.
Here's Wauseon proof. Verify it.
Read. Investigate. Be convinced.
You'll find why Wauseon folks be-
lieve in Doan's.
Frank Bayes, N. Fulton St., says:
"I had backache so badly, I didn't
know what to do. I had sharp,
shooting pains through my loins and
when I bent over, it hurt me to
straighten up. My kidneys were in
bad shape and I felt tired. After I
had taken two boxes of Doan's Kid
ney Pills, I was cured of backache
and my kidneys were strengthened.
If I should ever be troubled again
with my kidneys, would use Doan's
Kidney Pills. They are an old reli-
able kidney remedy"
Price go cents at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy
get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same
that Mr.. Bayes had. Foster Milburn

Wounds From Rusty
Nails Dangerous

Serious results, through blood poi.
soning, often occur from scratches,
cuts or wounds from rusty nails or
other metal. Don't run this danger.
Protect yourself by having bottle
Of Houstonia always at hand.
Dean McKillip, well-known farmer
of Clark Co., Ohio, says: 81 stepped
on a rusty nail which extended half
way through my foot. 1 applied
Houstonia to the wound and ban
daged the foot. In short time the
pain got easier After five days
did not limp and the wound healed
nicely. People who use Houstonia
for such injuries do not need to fear
blood poisoning"

DEATH RATE DROPS
WHEN RELIEF ARRIVES

Lives of thousands of Armenian
children already have been saved by
the Near East Relief taking over the
Armenian 'orphanages, according to de-
tailed reports, which have just reached
the headquarters of that organization.
These institutions had been run by the
Armenians since the beginning of the
war to care for the children whose
parents had been murdered by the
Turks. Because Of. lack of food,
clothing and medicine, the death rate
among the children in these institu-
tions averaged as high as twenty or
thirty day in some cases.
When Armenian funds became in
adequate the Near East Relief took
charge of the sorphanage. Since that
time the death. rate has been greatly
reduced Given good food and care
the children are quickly returning to
normal physical and mental condition.
It is estimated by persons who have
made survey of Armenia that 10000
children will die during the next year
unless they are given food and care.
Near East Relief is the only organi-
zation now operating in Western Asia
and it is making an appeal to save
these Christian children.

That Fabulous Fable.

The fable about fabulous wages is
still being babbled by those in the
circles of the select.
Sometimes it is put up to the work
ers. Are they able to meet the false
hood and overcome it with the truth !?
The United States Shipping Board
Emergency Fleet Corporation says
there are approximately 386,Ooo en-
ployes in the shipyards. The weekly
payroll is $1o,5OO,oOO. Making proper
allowances for salaried o....cials this
figures out an average wage to work
men of about $4 day
Based on authoritative pre-war
comparative prices this $4 equals
about $2.70 before the war,
The relative wage of the workers
is not higher He does well to hold
to the average before-the-war wage.
In many cases, where rent profteer-
ing has been most relentless, the rela-
tive wage is lower.
Organized labor's job now is to see
that no attempt to lower wages OF
lengthen hours shall succeed and o. L

board, $4.6o for clothes and $s.S5 for
carfare, doctor and other expenses.
Practically 4Ae same result is reach
ed by taking the SO budget in 1914
and applying the cost of living at that
time
Thus the woman worker IN some
places is holding her relative wage
if she has good health and no bad luck
she is living. That is to say, she is
remaining above the subsistence line.
1t would be interesting to know
what per cent of these women are
under the protection of organized la
Dor and what steps they are prepared
to take to keep from slipping below
the line.

How are the women workers faring
in their new job? Have their wages
been kept on relative basis?
A look at some government statis-
tics may help to answer.
The cost of living in New York
state has increased 81 per cent since
1914. The weekly budget for work
ing woman which in. 1914 was SO is
now estimated to be SIS. The cost of
women's clothing has increased 112
per cent in the four-year period.

A Few Don'ts

|. Don't condemn the labor move
ment because you know of objection
able features" Every human insti-
tuition has some imperfections.
2. Don't forget that organization
increases wages and shortens the
working day, making work steadier.
3. Don't shirk the neral obliga-
tion to do all you can to uphold the
dignity of your trade-to elevate the
standard of living.
A. Don't forget that the vast ma
jority of your trade is organized.
What is good for the majority is
good enough for the minority.
5. Don't be blind to your own in
terests-unionism helps all working
men and society
6. Don't let so-called "indepen-
dence" prevent you from being un-
selfish and fraternal. We, are all
more or less dependent on some one
or something. mo man stands alone"
Get closer together.
7. Don't retard our progress by
remaining weapon in the hands of
the employer.
5. Don't forget that our interests
are identical. improvements in your
working conditions means improve
ment for all our crafts.
8. Don't say unions "can't accom-
plish their purpose" Over 100000
of unionists think different.
10. Don't think that having got
ten along without the union for five
or ffty-fye years that ''it is useless
to YOU. Organized labor has helped
you and is helping now-through bet
ter conditions and increased wages.
