EMPLOYED TO MURDER ARMENIANS Brutality of Turks Described by Anatoliz College President New York, Oct. 2.—The slaughter with axes of all the Armenian facul- ty members of Anatolia College, Mar- sovan, Northern Asia Minor, together with 1,200 others by Turkish peasants whose pay for the work was the priv- ilege of stripping the clothing off their victims' bodies, was described here to- day by the Rev. George E. White, president of the college, recently re- turned to this country. The massa- cres were committee at night by or- der of the Turkish government, he said, the Armenians being sent out in lots of a hundred or two to their doom and their bodies rolled into prepared burial trenches. “One group of our college hoys asked permission to sing before they died and they sang ‘Nearer My God to Thee', then they were struck down” Dr. White said. “The situation for Armenia became excessively acute in the Spring of 1915 when the Turks determined to elim- inate the Armenian question by elim- inating the Armenians. The Armen- fan questions arises from political and religious causes. “On the pretext of searching for deserting soldlers, concealed bombs, weapons, seditious literature or revo- lutionists, the Turkish officers arrested about 1,200 Armenian men at Marso- van, accompanying their investigations by horrible brutalities. There was no revolutionary actlvity in our region whatcver. Called Out to Slaughter. “The men were sent out in lots of one or two hundred in night ‘depor- tations’ to mountains where trench- es had been prepared. Coarse peas- ants, who were employed to do what wag done, sald it was a ‘pity to waste bullets’ and they used axes. “Then tho Turks turned on the wo- men and children, the old men and the little boys. Scores of oxcarts were gathered and in the early dawn as they passed, the squeaking of their wheels left memories that make the blood curdle even now. Thousands of women and children were swept away. Where? Nowhere. No destination was stated or intended. Why? Simply because they were Armenians and Christians and were in the hands of the Turks. “Girls and young women were snatched away at every turn on the journey. The girls sold at Marsovan for from $2 to $4 each. I know be- cause I heard the conversation of men engaged in the traffic. I know because I was able to ransom three girls at the price of $4.40. “The misery, the agony, the suffer- ing were beyond power of words to express—almost beyond the power of hearts to conceive. In bereavement, thirst, hunger, loneliness, hopelessness, the groups were swept on and on along roads which had no destination. “I received word from Ambassador Morgenthau that our premises would not be interfered with. Next morn- ing the chief of police came with armed men and demanded surrender of all Armenians connected with the College, Girls' School and Hospital. ‘We claimed the right to control our grounds as American citizens. f “More than two hours we held them at bay. They brought more armed men. They again demanded surrender of the Armenians. I refused. They challenged me for resisting the Turk- ish government. They saild any one who did so was liable to immediate execution. “They broke open our gates, brought in oxcarts and asked where the Ar- menians were. I refused to tell. They went through the building smashing down the doors. Then our Armenian friends feeling that further attempt on our part to save them would bring more harm probably than good, came forth, professed themselves loyal Tur- kish subjects and offered to do what was required. “An oxcart was assigned each fam- ily with a meager supply of food, bed- ding and clothing. The mother sat on the load with her childron about her, the father prepared to walk beside the cart. I offered prayer and then the sad procession carrying 72 persons from the college and hospital moved away. Men of Refinement Slain, “These teachers were men of char- acter, education, ability and useful- ness, several of them representing the fine typo of graduates from American or European universities. The com- | pany went in safety for about ffty miles. Then the men were separated from the women. Their hands were bound behind their backs and they were led away.

Leep Hortiok' Anatolia College were among the slain. The women and children were moved on and on. No one knows where and no one knows how many of them are 3till living. “The government officers plowed the Armenian cemetery in Marsovan and sowed 1t with grain as a symbol that no Armenian should live or die to be buried there. No Armenian stu- dent or teacher was left to Anatolia College and of the Protestant congre- gation in the city of 950 souls, more than 900 with their pastors were swept away. It was a government move- ment throughout--a movement against the Armenian people. “Theso things are typical of what took place through the six provinces ¢f the Turkish Empire known as Ar- menia. The Armenians are the Yan- kees of the East—the merchants, manufacturers, capitalists, artisans and among the best of the farmers. One-quarter of a million reople suc- ceeded In escaping into Russian Cau- casus and among them American rep- resentatives have done wonderful work in caring for the sick, giving pread to the hungry, clothing the nak- ed, caring for orphans. Probably a million more went to Syria and Me- copmamia whre tner neve veen 4+ | DECOR ATION PRESENTED TO AN AMERICAN AMBULANCE CORPS IN THE MARNE DISTRICT is helping this worthy pecple to pull through alive.” The numbor of Armenians who have been massacred, said Dr. White, is es- timated v the American Committee for Armenian and Syrian Relief in New York city at from 500,000 to 1,- 000,000 while there are a million still living in need of immediate aid, for which $5,000,000 a month is urgently needed, without which thousands will perish in destitution and suffering. The committee is so conducted, he said, that every dollar collected goes for relief purposes. Dr. White, now living in Minneapolis wag ordered to jeave Marsovan by the Turkish government. He was former- ly pastor of the Congregational church in Waverly, Ia. Among Childhood Scencs. (Albany Times-Union). He had asked an unsuspecting friend to take a cross country walk and had picked a route that ran through the long-unvisited scenes of his childhood. His fond recollection presented every last one of them to view—the orchard, the meadow, the deep tangled wildwood, and every loved spot which his infancy knew. Finally he pointed to a very small mud pond. “Would you believe it, when I was a boy, I used to bathe in that mud hole?" “Yes,” answered hls friend wearily, “and it doesn't look as though they had changed the water since.” French officials decorating the flag of an American ambulance sec-tion at Mingen, in the Marne district, and red and h ,&\ WY N\ I ) from scratching. liching Biisters OnBaby's Head And Face.
