• ARMENIANS ARE
STARVING II
POORLY CLAD
3AN FRANCISCO, Jan. 29 (by As
sociated Press).—Herbert Hoover’s
^statement that conditions in the Near
East this winter are the most seridus
the world has ever known is support
ed by a letter received here from re
lief headquarters in Armenia calling
^ on America to “save the remnants of
the Armenian race.”
“This is the final struggle,” says the
letter, “to save a people that has been
fighting for life many centuries. If
America will only provide the food to
support the survivors of the Turk mas
sacres through the present winter,
these Armenians will be able to re
habilitate themselves with the spring
^ crops.
“They have returned to their homes
from exile, and these homes are deso
late and barren and ruined. They are
starving and dying of exposure, and
unless America does help them until
the fields are again productive, 250,000
of them will perish before summer.
“Five years ago the Armenians were
driven from their lands. Families were
torn apart and the members of the
households were scattered to the cor
ners of the Turkish dominions or
P slaughtered. Many of the men were
drafted into the Turkish army only to
be disarmed and murdered. Women
were placed in harems and children
were taken into Turkish homes to be
reared in the Moslem faith.
“It is pitiable to see the refugees re
turning. Gaunt, half-naked creatures,
£ hey swarm the streets, their claw-like
hands delving into heaps of refuse,
seeking something to eat. They
crowd stables and out-of-the-way cor
ners for a place to sleep.
“Thousands of girls who have been
imprisoned in Turkish houses were
set free by allied orders, and are now
hopelessly drifting, prey to the brutal
Turkish soldiers.”
