GREEKS SUFFER
IK
(By Associated Press)
NEW YORK, Oct 16.—Not satisfied
by the slaughter of hundreds of thou
sands of Armenians and Syrians, the
Turk has also turned against the
Greek Christians In his dominions and
jnore than 700,000 have fallen a victim
to persecution in the form of death,
suffering or deportation; It was de
clared here today by Frank W. Jack
son. of this city, chairman of the re
lief committee for Greeks of Asia Min
or. He said the real details of these
new Turki^i atrocities were Just be
ginning to leak out.
“The story of the Greek deportation
Is not yet generally known,” said Mr.
Jackson. “Quietly and gradually the
same treatment is being meted out to
the Greeks as to the Armenians. Al
though closely guarded, certain echoes
of these horrors come out from time
to time.
“There were some two or three mil
lion Greeks in Asia Minor at the out
break of the war in 1914, subject to
Turkish rule. According to the latest
reliable and authoritative accounts,
some seven to eight hundred thousand
have been deported, mainly from the
coast regions into the interior of Asia
Minor.
"The Greeks of Asia Minor always
have been law-abiding and perfectly
loyal to the Turkish government. Un
der Abdul Hamid they were well treat
ed, but his successors adopted a pro
gram to crush them.
“At the declaration of the present
war all persecutions were stopped, but
the spring of 1915 brought to the stage
a tragic, novel drama, unique in the
history of the world as to its horrors
and destructiveness, tl)at is the Ar
menian deportation: under that Inno
cent name the extermination of a
Christian race was started.
"Along with the Armenians most of
the Greeks of the Marmora regions
and Thrace have been deported on the
pretext that they gave information
to the enemy. Along the Aegean coast
Xlvhllk stands ouf as fhe worst suf
ferer. According to one report some
70,000 Greeks there have been de
----
ported toward Korla and beyond. At
last 7,000 have been slaughtered. The
Greek bishop of Alvallk committed
suicide in despair.
"The latest account from Trebizond
shows the towns along the Black sea
are being emptied of their Greek popu
lation. From Lyndon 8. Crawford
missionary of the American board at
Trebizond. we have a letter, dat&J
July 14. 1917, in which he says the
following order came from Turkish
army headquarters at Sheishehie: By
12:26 o’clock July let no Greek man
over 16 and under 50 be found In Or
dou. Send all such on into the Inter
ior. As for the families, we will send
further orders later.'
"Mr. Crawford also wrote: ‘First
let us express once more our thank
fulness to God for the deliverance He
has sent us by the great, grand Rus
sian army and people. We are more
and more appreciating what the Rus
sians have done for this region. Tm
mediately after the Russian occupa
tion of this province in April. 1916.
hundreds of Armenians began to come
jut of their hiding places.'
‘From the Greek minister to the
Cnlted States, Georges Rousse.s, i
have a letter of September 21, 1917, in
which he says:
“ ‘Backed by the Germans the Turks
have put into execution and even or
ganized their wildness. They have
lecided to exterminate the Greek rle
ment, which Is the most important
ind most numerous in Asia Minor
" ‘Under pretext of necessities of
war entire populations have been de
ported. Members ofK families have
been separated. The old. the men un
fit for military service, and the wo
men were sent into the interior coun
try, abandoned without the slightest
help and exposed to all sorts of de
privations. The men fit for military
service were taken by force Into the
army despite the fact of having pail
for exemption; some of the wealthiest
have been called on to pay tills exemp
tion fee three times over.' ”
The relief committee for Greeks of
Asia Minor, Mr. Jacks,>n said, has been
organized for non-p-uiilcul and purely
humanitarian purposes, and aims at
securing means „o aid these, Greeks
reduced by sudden persecutions to a
state of want.
