. REFUGEES ARE
DYING OFF AT
RAPID RATE
LOS ANGELES, July 22 (by Asso
ciated Press).—Conditions in the Rus
sian Caucasus were characterized as
“indescribable” in a cablegram re
ceived here from Dr. H. J. F. Main,
commissioner to that district of Rus
sia for the American committee for
Armenian and Syrian relief.
“On the streets of Alexandropol on
the day of my arrival 192 corpses were
picked up,” cabled Dr. Main. “This
is far below the average per day. One
seventh of the refugees are dying each
month. The total number of refugees
is 320,000.”
Another season of famine, said Dr.
Main, is inevitable unless there is im
mediate action by some compelling
/ power. He continued:
“The world appears to be uncon
scious of the overwhelming human
tragedy that is being enacted in the
Caucasus. The Turk and his radical
confederates are carrying forward
with growing efficiency the policy of
extermination developed during the
war by the method of starvation. Star
vation is aided by typhus and already
cholera is developing.
“Alexandropol, a large center, and
Etchmiadzin, a small one, are typical.
In the one are 68,000 refugees by ac
tual census at our bread and soup
rations; in the other are 7,000. A
winter of exile in the Caucasus has
produced a condition of horror unpar
alleled among the horrors of the war.”
“The question of political expedi
ency,” concluded Dr. Main, “should be
forgotten in the presence of this ca
tastrophe. These people look to Amer
ica. Our government is under moral
obligations to respond.”
EXPRESS RUNS DOWN
• AUTO, AND MINISTER IS
DECLARED RESPONSIBLE
SEOUL, Korea, June 4 (by mail).—
The Rev. Eugene Bell of Shelbyville,
Ky., has appealed from t^ie judgment
of the local court whereby he was
fined the equivalent of $25 for crimi
nal carelessness in accidentally caus
ing the death of his wife and a friend
in an automobile accident. The judg
ment stipulated that in default of pay
ment Mr. Bell must serve ten days’ im
prisonment.
It is understood that the friends of
Mr. Bell, who is engaged in missionary
work, urged him to fight the case.
The accident occurred March 26 at
an unguarded grade crossing, when the
Seoul express ran down . the automo
bile which Mr. Bell was driving. Mrs.
Bell and the Rev. Paul S. Crane of
Yazoo City, Miss., were instantly killed
and the Rev. Robert Knox of Galves
ton, Texas, a third passenger, was in
jured, finally losing an eye as a result.
