PREDICTS i GREATEST MASSACRE IN
 WORLDS HISTORY

PARIS, July 12.-The greatest mas sacre in <history is forecast here by Dr. Mark Ward, head of the Near East Relief Hospital of Harpoot, Anatolia, who has recently been deported from Anatolia by Kemalists and today pass ed through Paris on his way to Wash ington to lay the case of the Christ ians of Asia Minor before the State Department.
 ''There are approximately 2,000,000, Turks and 100000 Christians in Asia Minor" Dr. Ward stated. 'Tndications are such as to leave no doubt that the Turks are planning the extermination of this Christian minority. have been warned that if we continued the work of helping the Armenians and succeed ed in putting them on their feet they would be forced to massacre the whole Armenian population. We have been too easy in the past We shall do a thorough job this time, an official de- clared.
 Official actions justify these decla- rations. Soon after coming into pow CT the Kemalists appointed laisoH officer to work with us at Harpoot and orders were sent to me that we could not admit any orphans or give the poor relief without his consent When we refused they ordered the de portation of all Near East officials in Harpoot who spoke Armenian.
 "The condition of the Greeks is as bad as that of the Armenians. There are approximately 500000 of these peo pie in Turkey. They have retained their religion. They are now being in directly massacred by the thousand, They are not permitted to leave the country and are being deported to theI interior from the coast under condi- tions which they cannot survive.
 The attitude of the Kemalists can be seen in the fact that in the Harpoot district with a population of appToxi- mately one hundred thousand there are one thousand Christians who haveI received passage money from relatives in America but are not permitted toI leave. There are also two hundred American citizens by marriage, natu- ralization, etc., who are being held. Two naturalized American citizens, carrying passports, were refused per mission to leave.
 "The situation is tending daily to- ward a general massacre which theI Turks have proved they are not averseI to and which can be prevented only by strong action by America and oth CT world powers"

Development &C styles in automobiles
has been as striking as the growth Of
the industry itself. II you have pic

instance, the first one that appeared In
whatever town you lived about two dec
ades ago and created such sensation.
YOU will be amused at the contrast IN
rs style as compared with the motor
car Of 1921. The old styles were pic
turesque to say the least. although it
can hardly be said that their lines
we're anything TO brag about by way q

often ere in the artistic environment of

beauty and Joy, if not forever for a
long. long time.
Thus photography indicates clearly
that the designs in automobiles have
gradually changed from the crude, un
calmly. wagonlike conveyance OF the
so-called good old days to the trim,
classic lines which grace the up to date
cars
But styles in automobiles have nor
changed so much within the last rev
.ears. It may, therefore, he concluded
have been produced BY these artists
whose business II has been to design
thc lines of automobile bodies. n
other words. it might be hintec tina,
the point of saturation in styles Q,
motor cars has been reached.
Styles Change Little
There are practical reasons why
styles in automobiles to-day are more
like the laws of the Medes and Per
unchangeabe. For one thing,
it costs the manufacturer a lot Of
money to make a change. New pat
terms that are expensive to produce
must be made adjustments must be ac-
complished in the factory where pro-
duction takes place and in the Office
where the sales and advertising poli-
cles are worked out.
Then, too, folks come to recognize
certain make Of car by the lines OF
is hodv. Thus, the style of such g
car comes to have value similar to Il
trade marx. To change the style is to
lose this asset in whole or part. de-
pending upon how great the change.
There are q few standard types Of
cars such as touring. runabout, coupe
and sedan. Not SO long ago it was
the style to ride in q touring car with
the top down. An attempt was made
to make riding under such conditions
more hearablo by tho use of linen
busters ard colored goggles. In those
days trip Of any cons iderable length

raw materials and labor. In other
words, although we could have sold
our cars for considerably more than
their list prices. we were all the while
thinking not only of 1919 and 1920, but
of the years to come.
Increase Was Slight
"As n result our cars at their high
est prices showed an amazingly small
increase over their lowest prices, and
III addition they Incorporated MANY
ments in design that made them really
worth more. Our sole object was to
retain and enhance the good will VIC
had built up
"In like manner. when prices began
to show n downward trend we kept
pace, lowering our prices IS fast az
lower costs of row materials and
greater efficiency Of labor permitted.
The cumulative effect Of this policy
was felt through the results achieved
in 1921, and will. | believe, be oven
more in evidence in 1922.
"lf wo rcapcd The harvest in 1921

~ 1922 and the years to come, the
answer, believe, is TO be found in
The ono fact That We preferred to
maintain our established ideals Of
quality and fair prices rather than
resort 10 any cxpodcncy that would
cause these ideals TO suffer.
"As | view The sitration, 1922 is
going to prove a keenly competitive
ycar, and the public is going to judge
cars more critically, with an eye TO
occurring the greatest value for each
dol ar invested. The days when any
thing on four wheels would sell for
almost any price asked have passed
In offering our cars for 1922 we .have
incorporated number Of features that
give thcm added beauty, completeness
and refinement, but orr ideals have
undergone no change whatever. We
are continuing, as in the past, to
pioneer along lness Of giving the high
csc quality at the lowest possible
price.

who is intoxicted with the new found use
of words to evoke old scenes" But he is
never garrulous. There is art-"fiat, flag

in the sense of fiction or invention, but in
the process of selection. The book is just
what 1t promises to be: an autobiography,
sketching the more interesting chapters of
life. from boyhood on a farm in Ireland,
through adventures afioat and ashore, to
the position OF a recognized author with a
wide vogue.
