 PROTEST TO PRESIDENT {
 Seventy-five bishops of the American Episcopal Church have protested to President Wilson against the tentative action of the peace conference in de- priving Armenians of an outlet to the sea, it was announced here tonight The teie- gram of collective protest which was signed by Bishop Burch of New York, and Bishop Rhinelander of Pennsylvania, sad;
 Eve learn with deep concern that, con- trary to assurance given by you and also on behalf of the American peace mission, the peace conference has tenta- tivelv decided on depriving Armenia or her rightful and essential outlet 10 the Mediterranean Proposed arrangement robs Armenia of what historically, pollti- cally and economically is hers, and makes of her a petty Asiatic sttae, surrounded on all sides by. MoElem races. To live, we believe Armenia must have means or direct contact with the western world We therefore respectfully urge that the United States government take necessary steps to prevent carrying out proposed act of injustice against Armenia.
 James w Gerard, chairman of the American committee for the independence of Armenia, in giving out the. telegram to the President, said: "Cilicia is the Medit- erranean coast of Armenia which IS now occupied by France, and where trance wishes to stay. Great Britain IS seek ing to get the central part of Armenia TOT a proposed Kurdish sttae, whicn VII serve as a means of access to the BiaeA seo far Persia and Mesopotamia These two regions are rich in mineral resources such as copper. iron and coal cilic'a mas mas considerable cotton fields.
