They have had their opportunity to
withdraw with honor from the field Of
famine and desolation. They have re-
fused to leave, because they know that
their departure would mean death for
tens Of thousands Of women and chill
dren whom their efforts have kept
alive and whom they are determined
to save for better future.
A dozen cables are on my desk from
various centers In Armenia, Anatolia,
Cilicia and Syria pleading piteously
for the lives Of hundreds of thousands
who are homeless: "Sixty-flve thou

Refugees flocking into Aleppo;"
Twenty thousand refugees at Ismid;"
"One hundred thousand people at
Alexandropol will starve unless relief
is provided :" Refugees arriving from
Caucasus, escaping persecution, naked,
destitute Urgent need to save most
Of them from DEATH" 1.-TWO hundred
thousand starving between Kars and
Alexandropoll Severe winter adding
to distress"
Above all towers the mute appeal Of
the more than 100000 little children,
orphaned, homeless, whom these Amer
lean relief workers have saved and
whom we here at home must sustain
not only through the winter and
spring, but through the summer and
autumn as well. II we do not provide,
they perish! And with them dies the
hope Of New Near East.
The Easter season Is here-the sea-

known.

oesuuction, wrought by O war that
has never ended and that today Is not

pestilence, and stalking hand In hand
with death from exposure, from vio-
lence or from disease.
In the mountains between Kafs
and Alexandropol there are PCS, 900
human beings without clothing, food or
shelter In the bitter winter, who are
wandering from place to place like
people In a nightmare. Unless they
are succored before the end Of an
other month, they will all be dead.
In southern Persia, the remnant Of the
ancient family Of Chaldean Christians
have been forced to renounce forever
all hope Of ever returning to the home

SAYS F0RDNEY BILL
| MEANS BIG BURDEN
Head of Fair Tariff League
Claims to Speak for the
Consumer.

An additional tax Of at least $4,000
100000 year would be imposed upon
the American public by enactment of
the Fordney tariff bill. II. f. Miles of
Racine, Wis, president of the Fair
Tariff League. declared in brief
which was filed today in the record
of the tariff hearings.
Mr. Miles appeared before the COM
mittee at the request of Senator La
Toilette, republican, Wisconsin. to
present his views in person, but he
was not heard, Chairman Penrose' re-
questing that he file his statement.
Mr.. Miles explained that he wanted to
discuss the tariff from the consumers
standpoint, and that his observa
tions were based upon a very careful
analysis whi.::, he said, the league
had made of twenty nine Industries
with the help of reliable experts.
The industries covered included
textiles, hosiery. collars and cuffs. cut
iery, clocks and watches. hardware.
china and glassware and other neces-
stiles.
Aim OF Fair Tariff League.
'The Fair Tariff League" Mr.. Miles
said in his brief. wants the graft and
overcharges taken out of the tariff
So that it will protect our standards
of living and wages without adding

In the twenty-ninc industries an
alyzed the so-called protection given
under the Underwood law in 1919 was
$2.66S 100000. which increased as it
passed through the hands of whole
salers. retailers, etc. until it cost the
consumers $4.741 100000.
THE government collected only
S95.000.000 in revenue on imports of
these rreducts in 1920 Was ther4
ever such Il terrible burden put upon
II great people with SO little benefit
SCing to the government:
'Even the Underwood law delivers
the American Iublic into the hands
of the manufacturers. To shut for
eign competition out of the American
market in the name OF protection
is: to sell the birthright of the Amer
lean people to a few manufacturers"
Charging that Congress has added
3.00O.O00.000 to the cost of living
on the twenty-nine industries re-
ferred to. Mr.. Miles said it could now
take this out of the cost of living.
