ORPHANS VS.. OIL.

A N Associated Press despatch from Adana
"A printed yesterday relays delayed message
from Hedjin, in Armenia, dated May 3, indicating
that "the American workers there" had been forced
to Surrender their compounds to the Turks" 1t
further states that "he fate of the Armenian orphans
at Hedjin is not known, although there are reports
that the boys were killed and the girls taken to
CaeSarea"
The delay in this message is unfortunate from
the standpoint of the historian Armenia was in
the public eye at that particular time. 1t would
have been convenient for the historian had this de-
spatch been read into the Congressional Record at
the time.
For it was on the following day that the Presi-
dents message asking power to accept an Armenian
mandate, commented on the Senates resolution of
sympathy with Armenia in which the Senate asked
the President to send warShip TO the great oil port
of Batum to protect American interests.
The paragraph dealing with the fate of the Ar
menan children might not have been effective, but
the forced surrender of rights by American workers
ar Hedjin might have stirred the same Senators who
later wrote into the Republican platform pledge
10 protect the rights of American citizens lawfully
in"-but the next word is "Mexico," not Armenia.
Perhaps after all the delay is immaterial The
fate of the Armenian orphans is of no consequence.
Sympathy is enough from the Senate and the
"workers" in Hedjn were only missionaries, not oil
operators at Blturn.

Do these writer's who show such
touching solicitude for the welfare Of
our beloved nation ever consider II
worth while TO give a serious thought
to the other side of the question?
Their first and last argument Is usu-
ally the state of Maine-look at what
the prohibltlonists did to her. DO they
ever stop to consider Kansas, also one
of the pioneer dry States? DO they
realize that there is more money per
capita in Kansas than in any other
Of the United States? Do they know
that 30 per cent of the State poor
farms" OF Kansas have not had an oc-
cupant in twenty years? Does II
mean anything TO state TO have the
jails OF more than half its counties
absolutely VACANT for ten consecu-
tive years?

IN JUSTICE TO THE LEGION.

IN recent editorial The Evening World laid stress
! on the damage certain to accrue to the American
Legion from reports that overseas veterans to drive
the trucks of the Citizens Transportation Committee
were being recruited with the aid of the Legion
through its employment Offices.
II is only fair to state that the news reports upon
which The Evening Worlds comment was based
were denied by Legion officers who not only dis
claimed official cooperation of any sort with the
Citizens Transportation Committee but also pointed
out that the American Legion Employment Office
went out Of existence on May I.
The error in the original news story was further
confirmed yesterday by Col Frederick A. Molitor,
formerly of the 22d Engineers who has been in
charge Of hiring men for the Citizens Transporta-
ton Committee. Col Molitor said
I'VE have employed no men with the aid Of
the American Legion through American
Legion employment offices. The Citizens Trans
portation Committee has its recruiting
Offices. We have employed several former army
officers and a considerable number OF former
service men, but they have all come to us as
individuals and not in any representative capac.
ity. Personally, my policy has been TO give pref.
erence to former service men in the matter Of
employment"
The Evening World gladly gives this prominence
to the facts of the case.
The sympathy of this newspaper with the
broader aims of the American Legion is a matter
Of record.
The warning-based in this instance on misnfor-
nation-of the dangers certain to overtake the
Legion If its leaders let it become involved in indus
trial disputes, was given solely in the interest of
sounder, ever charging and more influential future
for the Legion itself.

No. 95.-ADAM BEDE; By
GeOrne Eliot.

Hetty Sorrel and Dinah Morris we're
dear friends. And this was odd. For,
in all England, there were not two
girls more unlike. One point only did
they have in common; namely,
Dinah's secret love for big Adam
Bede, the carpenter, and Adams open
alteration for Hetty.
Dlnah was an evangelist a tair
Gospeller," who went apout preaching
In public. Hetty was dairymaid on
the great Donnlthorne estate.
Hetty was deaf to Adams love
pleas because her silly heart had been
wholly captured by handsome young
Capt. Arthur Donni.horne, heir to the
great estate on which she worked.
One evening as he returned to work.
Adam CHANGED to see Hetty and Ar
thur saying goodby in a forest glade
He saw Arthur kiss the girl, who ran
of in confusion at sight OF Adam,
Arthur came lazily forward to greet
Adam, but Adam would have none
Of his greeting, and called Donnl-
thorne a scoundrel for trihing with
Hetty Sorrers heart
Arthur resented such talk from
mere laborer, and struck the carpen-
ter in the face. Adam rushed In
on him and gave the gallant captain
the thrashing of his life.
Then he forced Arthur to write TO
Hetty, saying everything was over
between them. Arthur wrote the let
| ter and then went away TO reJoin his
regiment. And for months he did
not return TO his home neighborhood.
When at last Arthur came home, he
found a heap of letters awaiting him
Carelessly he opened one Of these let
! ters From the written page these
words flashed forth at him;
"Hetty Sorrel is in prison for the
crime Of child murder!"
Madly, Arthur galloped away to
the nearest authorities, to learn wha t
he could Of the case and to use all his
influence to save the girl whose life
he had ruined.
Deserted by Arthur. the unhappy
girl had gradually lost her mind.
When her baby was born she put It
to death, not realizing what she wa s
doing.
AS Hetty lay in Jail, awaiting death,
Dinah Morris was her faithful COM
panion, soothing the unhappy prison
er's terror and holding out hope Oh
Divine forgiveness.
ut makes no difference, Hetty," she
said, whether we live or die. We are
IN the presence OF God. Let US knee
together He Is here. Let us pray e
the God of all mercy!"
At the last moment Arthur was able
TO get Hetty's sentence ,commuted L
life transportation to the Australian
penal settlements.
Adam Bede went on with his work
believing his heart dead, but in time
he turned to the waiting Dlnah fol
consolation and for love.
Each of them was a fitting matt
for the other. And in time poor Hett,
became only a sad memory to then
both,
