SAYS RESOLUTION
TO END THE WAR

Washington. July 17.-Harry A.
Mccartney, a Chicago lawyer in his
c%apacity as a taxpayer, today filed
suit in the district supreme court to
compel Secretary Of State Colby to
Immediately promulgate the Joint
resolution of congress declaring at
end the state of war with Germany.
Mr.. Mccartney based his suit on the
ground that the president has no veto
power over a joint resolution.
Some folks standardization proves
that there is no accounting for tastes.
1t is a jury trial indeed when the
twelve good men are compelled to
listen to long-winded lawyers.

 100 Per Cent Relief.
 "The aim of the organization is 100 per cent relief, the relief which puts those aided on self-supporting basis, which instills in them confidence for the future, places in their hands the means with which to begin life anew, and in their hearts the courage to go on. Work, that is the prescription subscribed and provided by those loyal men and women who have journeyed into perilous places for the sake of their fellow men; to make these peo- pie independent for the future, to en- courage the f1ickering fire of national pride.
 There are S2, ,2o1 workers employed in the industrial establishments of the Near East Relief where wool is fur nished for the women to spin and weave, and all the girls who are strong enough are washing wool, sewing beds, grinding and sitting wheat, tailoring and learning to make lace. The big problem is to make these women inde- pendent
 About 500 American men and wo- men, Near East Relief workers, are now in the field, including 36 eminent physicians and surgeons, 76 nurses, ' mechanics, 15 industrial experts, 16 agriculturists, IA bacteriologists, 197 iof port workers, 19 teachers, 20 adminfs- traitors, 34 secretaries. engineers and 45 army officers.
 Where Money Goes.
 Funds for relief purposes are dis tributed in two ways: First, the vari- ous relief centers are authorized by the Executive Committee to draw sight drafts on New York for specific amounts each month second, by SUD- plies purchased in America, the major portion of which are shipped to the committee warehouses at Derindje, and the remainder either to Beyrouth or Batoum.
 '"The relief is rapidly expanding and meeting the situation, but the future depends on the continuation of Ameri- can support"
 According to MT. Hemphill, the need for American help to see the destitute peoples of the Near East through the crisis of present conditions is greater now than ever before on account of the uncertainty as to the future, the trucu- lence Of the Turkish government and the danger of bolshevism from Russia, which threatens to engulf the whole of Armenia.

Haren Victim
 Tells Story

Stolen from her home on the night before her wedding and imprisoned for five years in Turkish harem, Aghavni William, a beautiful nineteen-year-old Armenian girl from Bitlis, has at last been discovered by her lover and through the assistance of the Near East Relief forcibly taken from her master and brought to one of the American Rescue Homes in Constanti- nople. Here she will stay until ar engagements can be made for her mar riage and her return to her old home.
 My story-it is like hundreds of others" Aghavni said simply. 'T was stolen from my home on the night that the massacres first began in Bitlis.

 NEAR EAST RELIEF
Prominent New York Banker Says Aim Is 1O0%o Relief

"Just what is the Near East Relief? is the question that many people are asking whose interests have been awakened to the terrible conditions existing in the Levant today" says Alexander J. Hemphill, President of the Guarantee Trust Company and we'll known New York banker and financier. "In prosaic facts, the Near East Relief is a body incorporated by act of Congress the object of which is 'to provide relief and to assist in the repatriation, rehabilitation and re-es- tablishment of suffering and dependent people of the Near East and adjacent areas; to provide for the care of or phans and widows and to promote the social. economic and industrial wei

It is my people, and their fu- lure that matters Somehow we must rebuild our nation and show to the Turks who tried to beat out our life and to the whole world that, despite what we have suffered, Armenia is still unconquerable."
 Aghavni Milan Is, as she says, only one of many. It is estimated that one hundred thousand girls are still held captive in Turkish harems The Near East Relief, Americas official agent in Armenia, is making this work of rescue one of the most important fea- lures of its program, and it is to them and the support they receive from the American people that Aghavni's unfortunate sisters, still captive, must look for their release.

Assyrian, Greek and Armenian, Jew and Christian-all rescued from the fear of the Turk and under the care Of American men and women.
 Most of the children are cared for in 229 American supported orphanages. The first ceremony in receiving these starved, almost naked children, is to clean them up. They are not only ema- ciated. but dirty with sores and yer min-69 hospitals and over 5000 beds are kept full of the little sufferers.
 But the children keep changing. Last year they were all thin and pitiful ; now it is the newcomers who are thin. The orphans who have been from six months to year in American care are we'll fed and we'll clothed.
 Best of all for a new Near East which surely must come out of all this distress, every child old enough is be- ing taught a trade which will make him self supporting.
 They are thrifty lot, these little parentless exiles. From their scant store of bread they always carry 8 portion in a small bag about their necks-they fear the day of another killing, another drive into the desert.
 They horde the shoes sent from America until snow fiies--they remem- Der their barefoot pain in the snows last spring.
 They cling to their new found friends. Every day other little waifs find a place in the orphanages and are told of the generous people of the United States. Soon the entrances will be crowded with children frozen out from their temporary summer quarters.
 Then the table of the Near East Re lief must be extended-many, many new leaves will be needed, and Amer ica is asked to set the table.
