PROPOSE TO ADMIT
CERTAIN ALIENS

Washington, Dec. 19.-Colorful
stories Of the privations and per-
secutions suffered by Christians in
Turkey were told before the House
immigration committee today in
support of the White Bill propos-
ing to admit certain calsses of rear
East refugees into the United Stat tcs
One of those who testified was
Eliza Shakinian, herself refugee
whose flight was stopped at Ellis
Island. Released on bond by the
immigration authorities, she came
to Washington and, between sobs, re-
lated how. she had been carried into
captivity by the Turks, how her near
one, and how she had made her way
to America only to find the door clos
ed in her face.
Horton Favors Bill
George Horton, who was Ameri-
can consul at Smyrna during the re-
cent Greco-Turkish hostilities in that
region, corroborated many of the as
sertions made by other witnesses re-
garding the tribulations of the Chris
tian minorities in Turkey. He said he
was speaking wholly for himself and
not as representative Of the State
Department but could not refrain from
saying a word for those who had
suffered SO patiently in the Near
East. When one committee mem
Der suggested that the refugees
had occupied district fertile in
natural resources and should be
sent beck there to work out their
own salvation, Mr.. Horton replied;
"For Gods sake don't do that
You would be sending them to their
| DEATH"
Representatives Of the Near East
relief, the Federal Council of Churches
the Y. M. G. A. and the Young Wo-
mems Christian Association, were
among others who appeared to ask
| for passage of the bill which would
admit only near relatives of American
citizens among the refugees and
whose provisions would extend only
until June 80, 1924.
