1 vt Vt i V'' MEANS TO AIFF? T A TTAA mi in n i li i i iub iLiuuf-iiiniiuu SEEK 90 ' 8 H I yew York, Dec 6. A simple meth od to obliterate from the faces of thou sands of Armenian girls and women the brands and indelible ink tattoo marks placed upon them during the v.ar by Turks, Kurds and Arabs is SA ieht by Dr. Wilfred , M. Post of Princeton University, who has just returned from a trip through the near east. -.. : ; : The victims of the branding and tattooing, in every case were Chris tians and their captors thus marked them as Mohammedans. Freed from ( nsiavement they sought at once to remove the evidence of their bondage, employing disfigiring acids for the purpose. Many of them flocked to relief hospitals, Dr. Post said, to be treated for the self-inflicted burns. Dr. Post, who was born in Turkey and served as a medical missionary in that country before the war, said D'.r tattooed women were among nun ,;;iHl.s of thousands of destitute per sons in that country who are being cared for by the near east relief work ers from America. "While removal of tatoo marks can not be classed with the urgent neces sity of providing food and clothing for 800,000 starving Armenian women and children," says Dr. Post, "the wearing of this brand which shows that the woman has been an inmate of a harem, seriously .interferes with the work of reconstruction and re habilitation among such persons. Dur ing the four years that Turkey at tempted to exterminate the Armenian people by a system of slaughter and deportation, practically every, young woman in that country was at the mercy of the Mohammedans." Removal of tattoo marks has never been given serious 'attention, accord ing to prominent dermatologists. Oc casionally a request has come from a former sailor to have some design removed from . his arm or a society woman who wishes to have the initials moved, but the known processes of re moval have. been so dangerous and their success so questionable that physi cians have considered the marks to be practically irremoveable. ' Several prominent dermatologists have offered their services to Dr. Post to assist him in his" research; work for the benefit of marked ; Armenian women. Among those who are aid ing in the work is Dr. George H. Wash burn of Harvard, who served In the medical corps of the United -States army as a specialist in restoring the faces of soldiers who were disfigured by wounds.
