less Of the knowledge of what that has
done for those people there Is no evidence
of any immediate change. Armenia has
been battersd from one direction and then

reached an understandings With the Armen-
ians or secured control in such a way as
they desired there is no reason why they
should enter into negotiations looking to
the upsetting of mutual Understandings
Thus it is not as surprising to note that
there is feeling that the time is not
ripe for the negotiations as it is to ex-
pect that there is going to he any more
