Russia Offers Armenians Homes
(From the New York Hersld.)

The Armenian delegation at Lau-
4 same has accepted the offer made
by Soviet Russia Saturday OF a home
! for $50, 600 Armenian refugees, most
! OF whom had fed from the Armenian
provinces OF eastern Turkey to the
/ Syrian coast or had crossed the
Egean Sea to Greece and Bulgaria.
Russia already has a considerable
Armenian population centered in
and around the Republic OF Erivan,
which Moscow placed under Soviet
rule soon after it had been pro-
claimed a free State. The proposed
addition to its Armenian population
Moscow offers to settle in the Don
Cossack country north Of the Crimea
and the Sea OF Azov.
This proposal OF the Soviet Gov
ernment. II It Is carried out, offers
an asylum for these sorely oppressed
and fugitive people Moscow, how
ever, says that il is unable to fur
nish transportation for the-refugees

the Government offers IS large
tract between the Don and Kuban.
rivers, a fertile but more or less un-
developed region 10 which several
hundred Armenians fed after the
world war and made permanent set
Elements. This land as the Moscow
Government explains, is state land,
as is the case with all Soviet lands,
and what it offers is not ownership
Of the property but merely its use
for agricultural purposes.
These refugees. 1t must be remem-
bered. are only one of the remnants
OF a people whose kingdom extended
across Asia Minor at one time from
the Mediterranean Sea to the Black
Sea. They are part OF a Christian
people who suffered more than any
other OF the so-called minority races
OF Ottoman Turkey from Turkish
massacres and prosecutions. Before
the world war, according to their
own estimate. they numbered in the
Armenian provinces. Cilicia and
other regions of Turkey 1900 900
souls.
BY policy Of deportation and ex-
termination undertaken in 1914 by
the Young Turks and carried out
principally by Enver Pasha and Ia
laat Pasha, Armenians OF southeast
ern Turkey were deported to the
desert lands below the Mesopotamian
valley. Others OF the race further to
the north were massacred. BY the
execution OF the Young Turk policy
the Armenians lost 500, 900 OF their
number, according TO conservative

dangerous, the fact that the mali
ciously inclined are utilizing It for
their own purpose makes It doubly
so. Let all true patriots who have
been induced TO participate in these
extreme fascistic movements TAX

the golden scales OF real national
ism. lest they become the tools Of
those who. through folly or evil
intent, would undo the government
to which they owe allegiance.
To the extent that fascism means
nationalism. in its true sense, it is
worthy of adoption. To the extent
that It means extreme exercise OF
Individual or group power or the
practice of Ku Kluxism 1t is to be
banned by patriots.
The spread OF fascism through
the nations is simply the spread of
a term. It may mean one thing in
Italy, another in Germany. and still
another in America. Therefore IT
is not to be sweepingly condemned
or accepted. 1t is>for the nationals

Fascism is a new name for ma
tionalism. Under varying guises,
but at bottom much the same. from
earliest days 1t has from time TO
time and among divers nations man
ifested itself It is Theoretically a
form of patriotism. but. as so often
happens, 1t is subject TO a differ
ence between theory and practice
that sometlmes- carries IL to OBJ
noxious extremes. Natlonalism
qualified by reason is manifestly a
good thing for peoples. It is a nee
esssry anchor to windward against
disturbing and subverung forces,
like those loosed by bOleshvism. But
1t is also subject to abuse. 1t can
be carried TO Illogical lengths and
can be utilized for purposes that
are antagonistic to true patriotism.
/ At present, nationallsm under the
name of fascism seems to be rapidly
becoming more assertiye and Wide
spread. This is not confined to any
one country. Having become dom
inant in Italy, Il is cropping out in
Germany and Mexico and in other
countries, including America.
The. fascist OF Italy have a def
mite political aim that IS. with GER
tain qualifications, consistent with
nationslism In It's true sense. The
same may be said OF fascism in some
of the other countries But II is
also true that in some OF ths coun-
tries II is functioning as a subter-
fuge for the practice OF subersive
and dangerous doctrines. While
nationalism OF fascism Is TO a GER

I estimates. The Armenians suffered
heavy loss in young men. for they
fought with the French in Cllicia,
with the Allies in Europe and the
Russians and British in Turkey. Il
is estimated that not less than one
sixth Of the males OF the race per.
ished in warfare, in addition TO the
lose by deportation and massacre.
The census taken in 1916 put
the number OF Armenians in the
eastern Turkish provinces at about
100000. but how many have sur
vived the last six years OF massacre
and persecution It is difficult TO esti-
mate. The Turkish figures are as
inexact perhaps as the Armenian.
A recent European estimate. how
ever. put the whole number OF Ar
menian survivors in Turkey at less
than 100000. II that figure is to be
accepted the Turks wiped out more
than two-thlrds OF the Armenian
population.
The Armenians in the last century
have Jared comparatively well under
Russian rule Many OF them were
furnished with homes in the Cau-
casus region and to this region ned
large numbers from Turkey and Per-
sia. They fell under local displeas-
ure IN 1905 and thousands OF Arme-
mans were killed in riots and race
wars by Tartars Armenian writer's,
however, lay some OF tho response
bility for these massacres upon the
Armenisns themselves. It is yet to
be discovered how the Armenians
will in the first place. accept Soviet
rules and, in the next place. how they
get on with their wild Sossack
nelghbors.
Moscow by It's offer plays. It is
true, the role OF the Good Samaritan,
but at the same time It receives as
settlers for its untitled soil people
of an industrious and progressive
race. Russia apparently knows how
to rule the Armenians, for by the
last Russian census. taken Just be-
fore the world war, there were 96Q,-
600 OF the race in the empire. She
had no trouble with them as a peo-
pie. Europe may be thankful for
the present solution of the refugee
problem. but so long as the Turks
follow their policy of nationalism
Armenians will continue to be mas
sacred and deported. The solution
thus at the best becomes only a tenn
porary expedient. The civilized
world is not freed from its obligation
to bring to these prosecuted people
full measure OF protection for their
rights. property and lives.

AMERrTED REBUKE.

From the Columbus Record.
Great Britain had SO murders the
past year, while there were $500
murders in the United States for
the same period. From any stand
point. the figures. when placed side
by side, are a standing rebuke to the
people Of this country.
But when such an eminent law
yer as Sir Basil Thompson, of Lon
don. comes over 10 pay US n short

ers, it is enough to mahe lawyers
and citizens OF this country hang
their heads in shame.
OF the SO murders in England, all
but eight have been cleared up,
and the newspapers of England are
demanding why they were not.
OF the $500 murders in the Uni
ted States, it Is a good guess that
not more than one-thlrd Of them
have been cleared up.

had been around this city since last
August and was known as a man who
did not believe in working. Lately
he had been active here as an |. W.

picion of having been mixed up in
several shady deals. He pleaded
guilty to vagrancy in Judge Gordon's
court and was sentenced to 90 days
Imprisonment. Sentence was sus-
pended provided he left town at once.
Jake departed for Williston the
same evening of his arrest.
Now comes word from the chief
of police at Williston that Jake has
been arrested there IN a hold-up
charge. From reports at hand it
would appear that he vas caught red

VIM. Boyd left his ranch Sunday
in response to a message saying his
mother, Mrs. Jas. Boyd, was very
i'll. Later reports say Mrs. Boyd
died Monday evening at her home
in Poplar.
Mrs Murel Purdy has been con-
fined to her bed with a serious at
tack of rheumatism at their home
near Macon, but is again improving.
In answer to inquiries made by
Volt as to the location of Poverty
Flat, will say it is four miles east of
Wolf Point in the vicinity of Macon.
Poverty Flat is inhabited by a happy
go-lucky sort of people, the male sex
being of a dark bronz complexion
and the females are known as the
dusky maids with occasionally a
blond. Are socially inclined and
dance all the latest dances such as
coming through the rye; swing the
girl behind you and pop goes the
weasel. But it is rather inconvenient
or the girls when they go to dances
for there are only four pairs of dane
ing shoes in Poverty Flat. So their
floor manager is often heard calling
''ladies change shoes for the next
-quadrille."
We must admit to Volt. it is a
little out Of season for bull frogs.
That is the reason the lady had to
run so far to get the required amount
of hops. But come in Apri, and get
frog hops by the bushels and they
will be cheap then
