MORE ID DO YET BEFORE ARMENIA
 IS MADE STABLE
Can Care for Themselves Until MidWinter, After That Help or Oblivion, Says Vickrey,
 In Message

The latest first-hand information re- garding actual conditions as thex now are in Armenia, and the near eHstern countries. is told by Charles V. V 2krey, general secretary of the Neari East Relief Committee. who has just returned of that section. John J. Martin of Bir- mingham, Ala, state director for the Near East Relief, is in receipt of tele- gram from MT. vickrey, which reads as follows:
 Just returned from a thorough n- spection of conditions throughout Armenia. The premier, president, gover nors, mayors and all authorities agree that Armenia was saved last year by flour and other foodstuffs sent from America. Hundreds of thousands of lives today would be dead had it not been for American relief. They are not only devoutedly grateful, but are thrifty, hard working. industrious and, consider ing their handicaps, they have made re- markable progress towards self-support
 MANY REFUGEES
 Hundreds of thousands of the popa- lation are still refugees from Turkish Armenia, without homes or property rights, without modern agricultural lm- plements, with insufficient number or oxen and inadequate supply of seed wheat, they have succeeded in raising food supplies that will carry them until mdwinter. Supplementary supplies must be provided until the recently signed peace treaty with Turkey can be made effective and security given under which they can return to the site of their ruined homes and regain full self-sup- port.
 Everyone joins in high praise or Colonel Haskell in the flour distribution of last winter Since the withdrawal or Colonel Haskell and the American mill- tary mission, relief work continues un- der the civilian direction of Capt. A Narrow and a strong American civilian personnel
 THE ORPHANAGES
 The Near East Relief operates one orphanage at Alexandropol that con tains approximately 10000 Armenian war orphans. Another at Erivan and similar orphanages at other centers. These orphans, boys and girls constitute the hope of the future for the Near East
 American philanthropy, through the Near East Relief committee, is rendering jnestimable service in promoting good will and international friendship. A few million dollars today in the form of foot, education and industrial training for the orphans may save millions of collars to- morrow in warfare and international strife"

 The marking is being done with white paint to show twenty feet off and will not rust nor fade except after it has been continually stepped on for perhaps the period of a week, and then it will be renewed.
