The attitude Of Mustapha KemsI
Pasha, head of the National Party
in Turkey, is hostile to all Christian
peoples. Armenians and Greeks
alike are being deported or massa-
cred in large numbers, and the in
dignation of the civilized nations is
being aroused. At the urgent request
of the people Of the U. S. the
State Department at Washington has
declared its intention of making in
vestigations. 1t is to be hoped that
some kind of action will be taken to
stop such atrocities. Even Cilicia,
which was reported to be a safe
place Of refuge for the prosecuted
peoples, has not been excepted. The
U. S. is at disadvantage in its de-
sire to help these people because it

As the time of the election in Ire
land draws near, conditions have
again become serious. The outbreak
of disorder and killing along the
border Of Ulster has led the Eng
iish government to send an armed
force to suppress it. In compliance
with the act of settlement, England
had already, relying on the good
faith of the Irish, withdrawn most
Of her troops. 1t is believed that
the party Of DeValera have stirred
up the disturbance in order to make
it appear that the Free State is un-
able to preserve order and thus to
discredit it for the purpose Of infiu-
encing the elections. Everyone will
breath easier when the elections have
taken place and a government Of
greater authority is created. Tran
sition periods are always disturbing
