ARMEN|ANS FLEE
FOR SAFETY To
CONSTANT |NOPLE
Three Thousand Are Con-
centrated in Old Churches
and Other Buildings; Their
Fate Is Wretched.
(By The Associated Press.)

New York. Dec. 24-Three thou
sand Armenians, driven from their
homes in the ar-ravaged countries
south of the Black sea, are con-
centrated in old churches or other
refugee buildings in Constantine
pie. says report received here by
the Near East relief from one of
| its workers. Their fate is de-
scribed as wretched. Work is at
a premium in Constantinople be-
cause of the influx of 10000 Rus
sian refugees from the Crimea and
numerous Greeks from the fight
ing zone in Anatolia
The buildings in which the Ar
menian refugees have been herded
are characterized as unsuitable in
almost every conceivable way for
housing so many. There are five
of these refugee centers. called
camps.
Sanitary Conditions Poor.
The relief worker reports that
sanitary conditions in these camps
are almost indescribable. The
| buildings are crowded. dirty and
wet. The refugees, most of them
country people unused to the ways
of the city and stupefied by their
misfortunes, sit around, huddled
against the walls. The women
have dull. sad faces and the little
children are blue and pinched with
the cold and too miserably lifeless
| to cry.
The women make an effort to
keep clean, but it is hard to wash
either bodies or clothes when there
| is no soap, about one pan or kettle
| for ten families, and all the water
| from one we'll.
| Most OF the refugees have ar
Irived in Constantinople with almost
nothing except the clothes on their
backs. and many are barely COW
cred.
Great Need for Blankets.
Even greater need exists for
blankets than warm clothing. One
family of five for instance. sleeps
on a bare stone floor under one
thin, ragged, half cotton blanket.
/ At Haskuey camp. located in an
old Armenian church. 500 persons
from Cilicia are housed. 255 of
them women and children. They
are hungry most of the time. Every
two days the camp receives 1870
loaves of bread and one case of
milk from the central Armenian
committee. The milk is reserved
for the babies and the sick. They
cook over twig fires and with the
constant rain and mud. dry twigs
are hard to find.
Psamatia, special feeding
camp" where the weakest refugees
are sent, has $50 people. and con-
ditions are slightly better. Scutari,
another special camp for sick
refugees, consists of two old
churches in which $50 people are
massed.

she had brought it" and determi-
nation never again to waste an
other hour of her life, were avow-
ed late today by Clara Smith, en-
route to Ardmore, Okla. to answer

lasting nearly an hour she spoke
earnestly on religion, philosophy,
psychic research. art. fancy work,
and most earnestly of all her i'm
pressions of Mexico where she
stayed three weeks before giving
herself up to the custody of Sheriff
Buck Garrett of Ardmore, in
Juarez Wednesday night. She
sedulously avoided discussing the
charge against her and mentioned
lannon's name only once when she
referred to her opposition to his
retiring from active life.
During the interview she en-
phasized that her name was Mrs.
Clara Smith Hamon and not Miss
Smith, as she has many times been
referred to in published stories.

HOW We MADE GOOD
MONEY LAST YEAR
Hastings Declares That Southern
Farmers Can Repeat the Past
Years Prosperity, II
They VIII

Atlanta, .-(SpeciaD 1.-THE gen
erality OF Southern farmers made real
money out Of their farming operations
in 1919, more profit than most OF them
ever made before, despite boil weevil
unfaYora Bile seasons and labor short
age"
This statement was made recently
by H. g. Hastings, president of both
the Southeastern Fair Association and
the Georgia State Chamber of Com
merce. in discussing general farm
conditions In the South.
Very naturally most of this farm
prosperity Is credited to the high
price of cotton and, OF course, the high
price helped. but the real down.at-the
bottom reason was that most farmers
owned their cotton when 1t was made
instead OF owing it for food and
grain bought ON credit, as used to be
the case when the practice was to grow
all or nearly all cotton and buy on
credit all or nearly all food, grain, etc
Present farm prosperity is due
largely to what DIR. Bradford Knapp
head Of the demonstration work, has
SO APPLY termed Safe Farming which
10 nothing more or less tlaan growing
ON home acres every pound of foodA4
grain and forage needed for family
and live stock use. When this liz done
every other available acre can wisely
and safely be put In cotton or other
cash crop.
The expense OF making cotton or
other cash crop is, either directly or
indirectly, the cost of food for man
and beast that works the crop. Most
items OF food and grain can be pro- |
duced On southern farms at one.thigd
to onehalf what those same items
cost from supply merchants.
We made money last year by fol.
lowing the only way that insures per.
manent farm prosperity, home pro
duction OF home food and grain needs.
we can repeat this money making in
1870 by following the same common
sense way that put US right last year
ana will keep US right in 1920 and
every year, II we follow 1t up and not
gamble IN cotton planting.
It's great temptation to gamble
IN cotton in 1920-gamble In cotton
In the field, which is just as bad as
gambling In cotton on the New York
Or New Orleans exchanges. | know
some folks who are planning to
iouble cotton acreage this year. They
are headed for disaster sooner or
alter. The wise farmer will play safe
u lSzV-play safe by doing safe farm.
