DRUSE ATROCITIES
IN TOWN REVEALED
Christian Village Ravaged
After Pledge of Peace Is
Given by Sheik.
By 4. r. DECKER.

By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News.
BEIRUT. Syria. November 16.-The
600-year hatred between the Druses
and Maronites had another chance TO
show the horrible extremes of religious
fanaticisim when the Druses treacher-
ously occupied Kaoukaba, locality of
500 souls near Hasbaya.
A band of 500 Druses, led by Sheil<
HAMA. were seen passing the village
in small groups early in the morning.
Villagers. led by the Christian Sheik
Khalil Khoury Rizk, took positions in
numbered 10 youths with arms, and
80 other able-bodied men.
Soon Sheik Hanna returned and
drove straight to the heart of the viii
lage and announced that he was the
guest of the village. The Druses' sheik
told the local sheik that the villa gers
need not be alarmed as the Druses
wanted nothing from the villagers. eX-
planning that they were headed for
one of the few bridges which cross a
difficult gorge. He said the vtllage
should not be frightened If his ex-
uberant men fired a few shots in the
air.
Villagers Slain First.
Several shots were fired, but not in
the air. and they killed d few of the
villag The men of the Druses'
sheik had demanded from the vii
layers rifles and $500 gold as tribute
showed fight. but we're outnumbered
and beaten, although even the priests
took rifles and fought until they saw
II was useless. The village was evac-
uated.
The whole family Of Sheik Khalil
was in the fight and his uncle was
wounded.
Priest Joseph Rizk, son of the
sheik, fought until the village burned.
He told the correspondent that he re-
gretted that he did not remain in
the plllaged church to fight until he
was killed.
The Druses shot the villagers,
slashed them with wicked, curved
knives, and set fire to their houses.
1t is thought that the losses in killed
were about 40.
Saw Woman Killed.
The Christian sheik told the writer
that he saw the DruseS cut a baby
In two and run a bayonet through
q woman. The sheik fed with his
niece. he was met Dy a band or
five Druses, who robbed him and even
wanted to take the clothes off his
back The whole town of $50 houses
was burned.
The villagers Of Abou Kamha had
a similar experience. They lost four
or five killed.
1t is thought that the Moslems of
Hasbaya joined the Druses in order
to vent their hate on the Maronite VIII
lage of kaoukaba. The villagers of
other localities fed to the coast, many
coming to Saida, where the French
have a destroyer. Saida is a Moslem
town and 1t did not conceal it's de-
light at the arrival Of the refugees.
The Moslems are. friendly to the
