S. Dwight, a Near East Relief worker,
who has been Instrumental in helping
to save hundreds of thousands of their
people from death by starvation. Miss
Dwight, who is not given to exagger

are facing death by starvation Id Ar

aids.
Herself an eyewitness t the slaugh
ter of hundreds of helpless .women
and children by the Turk and a vic

there is untold suffering la Armenia
and Syria. She praises the efforts of
rhe Near East Relief, formerly the
American Committee for Armenian and
Syrian Relief, to save as tunny of
these people as possible. At Erivan,
the iapital.of the Armenian republic,
one hot meal is given out daily, and by
this relief alone the city's death rate
has been cut from a thousand daily to
an average of twenty. At Alexandro

situation Is appalling, Miss Dakesian

completely lost their moral sense when
they finally found refuge In the Neai

take care of clothes. This was a tragedj

Then the boys were organized ai

They began to be careful of theli

had come to steal without compunc
