SLAY PEOPLE’S ONE AMBITION NOW IS PEACE Early Return of Stable Economic Condition Aim, Says Britisher. HUNGARY WANTS RULER LONDON. Jan. SO.—Peace and tranquility rather than political questions are uppermost in the minds of tlhe people in the territory that was once the Austro-Hungarian empire, in the opinion of Sir William Goode, K. B. E„ director of British food relief in Europe. The chief yearning of the people, Sir William asserts, is for a return to stable, peace-time economic conditions that will relieve the precarious industrial situation that now obtains. The problem, Sir William believes, is an exceedingly grave one. A review of conditions he discovered during a recent visit to the former domain of the Hapsburgs and his opinions regarding the situation there was given by Sir William as follows: VIENNA IN CURIOUS POSITION NOW. “The position of Vienna is a very curious one today. Once one of the capitals of Europe, it still has a population of two and a half million people, but what can the tiny Austrian state, with only six and a half million Inhabitants in all, do to support so great a dty? From the economic point of view I fail to see how Vienna can remain as it was in the days of AustroHungarian empire. There will probably not be a convulsive process of depopulation, but the Viennese will go away from their birthplace in numbers in the course of time, and likewise many Austrians of the country districts. Some,

for instance, will go to South America. The emigration will be gradual and automatic. With regard to the existing Austrian government, its position is a very difficult one. No government is likely to be long-lived which can not supply the people with the basic necessities of life. I should not like to be the member of a government to go to the constituents without being able to offer them coal and with very little food in the land. “I did not notice a strong feeling for union with Germany among the Austrians. It must, however, be remembered that President Reisch and Chancellor Renner bare both publicly discussed the advantages of a political union with Germany. BACKS TO WALL IN ALL COUNTRIES. “In all the countries I visited the people have their backs to the wall, and are more concerned with the desire for peace and tranquility than with political questions, although in Hungary there is a' definite wish for a monarchy. In Czecho-Slovakia they are settling down, but there is a shortage there of coal and raw material. In Roumania they have a food surplus for export, yet no means of transport. It is the same in Jugo-Slavia. “The people of Belgrade feel very bitterly the doings of d’Annunzio at Flume and along the Dalmatian coast, but they exhibited much restraint, I thought. Everywhere the people need raw materials to work up. Credits abroad are required for them to obtain raw materials. England will be able to do more if the United States comes in The Jugo-Slavs are so immersed' in their own economic difficulties and desperate situation that they nave little time to think of anything else. Peace and credit are the things they need. Bolshevism is on the decline all through southern Europe, despite the privations the people have had to face. The Hungarians learned the lesson that bolshevism does not supply food. Iv there were no food and no coal, of course, there might be an outbreak o; complete anarchy. HUNGARIANS OPENLY FAVOR MONARCHY. “M. Huszar, the new head of the government of Hungary, openly favors the return of the monarchical system. He is approved by the allies, who oppose a Hapsburg restoration in Hungary, although anew dynasty might pass muster. They are much better off for food in Budapest than in Vienna. Lack of .coal and wood and the utter demoralization of the transport system form serious difficulties, nevertheless. The Roumanian occupation contributed very largely to the present shortcomings in the tiansport facilities of Hungary. “There is no likelihood of any great restoration movement in what was once the empire of the Hapsburgs. The Czeeho-Slovaks and the Jugo-Slavs hate the Austrians and the Austrians hate fhem. What has meant the making of £ne has meant the unmaking of the other. Certainly during the last two months all these countries have begun to realize their own interests by inaugurating freer economic intercourse among themselves. This was most urgently needed. The fundamental policy in central Europe must be the insistence on the interchange of the basic necessities of life (between all the states.”

Mrs. Pankhurst Sees Peril in Labor Laws NEW YORK, Jan 30.—Mrs Emmaline Pankhurst, English suffragist, In an interview, deprecated the proposed welfare legislation for women which Is to be introduced at Albany. In Mrs. Pankhurst’s statement, made through the Women’s Equal Opportunity league, she said, in part: “Restrictive legislation would destroy the freedom women have gained, would limit production and hamper national prosperity. Women everywhere are looking to the most powerful nations—America among them—to loose the shackles of tradition which have heretofore classed women with helpless children." Pershing- Gives Flag to Wellesley College WELLESLEY, Mass., Jan. 80.—Gen. Pershing’s four-starred flag of red with four white stars, together with his war helmet and the personal battle pennon of the German emperor, were presented to Wellesley college through the Azora society and a receiving committee from each class. The general’s ylfe was a member of Azora and he is now r an honorary member. The presentation was made by Countess de Tiedekerke, chairman of the Belgian Purple Cross, now visiting in this country.

Idaho Farmers in New Organization BOISE, Idaho, Jan. 30.—A new organization of farmers by the name of the United States American Federation of Farmers is being started in this state. While it announces that its object is the protection of the farmers as a business class and bettering market conditions, and that it will not enter into politics, yet. the very fact of its being a second organization of farmers makes it a rival of the Farmers Nonpartisan league. It is expected that the organization in Idaho will be one of the units of a national organization. The leaders of the federation state that the new society will not seek political positions nor be mixed up in politics. It will, however, strive to secure legislation favorable to the interests of its members. It is now organized in but one county in Idaho. Wants to Live Until Christ Comes Again MANSFIELD, O, Jan. 30.—Stephen C. Ackerman of this city has just celebrated his ninetieth birthday. He has expressed a desire to live until “Christ comes again,” although, he says, no one knows when this event will occur. Mr. Ackerman admits that he has one little vice. He has been chewing tobacco for seventy-five years. “I attribute my long life to regular habits,” said Mr. Ackerman. “I believe in a time to work, a time to eat and a time to rest. I think a man should work a little every day. I never had a doctor see me until last year. I didn’t take any of his nasty medicine then.” Each year Mr. Ackerman spades and cultivates a garden. He expects to do the same next summer. His great enjoyment is eating. .

INDIANA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, JANUARY 30, J 920.

This was anew and fearsome thing for a woman who had suffered through the years of war the indignities and tortures the Turks know so well how to heap upon their Armenian neighbors. But a surprise awaited Mrs. Kermanian, who came over on the steamer Black Arrow recently in search of her brother in New Jersey. A bright young girl of her own nationality came up to her on the deck and spoke her native tongue. She represented the Travelers’ Aid society aud was able to render many services to the nervewrecked traveler, who had almost forgotten what a personal kindness was. A doctor was found to help restore the

Well-being of the newcomer, and then the brother was found. Miss Angele Gulbeckjian, who speaks numerous languages, including several Slavish, and who has a bachelor of arts degree from two music schools, devotes much of her time to work in this society. And it was her knowledge of Armenian that aided her country woman. The story is like many others—the diference is that tragedy is multiplied here many times over. Haiganorish Kermanian—that is the traveler’s full* name—knew about five years ago, when the Turks ordered all

the men taken away from the village where she lived, that she would never see her husband again. She knew the Turks too well to even hope for that. Soon came the ordfer for the women and children to pack up and leave their homes in Tokat, in the province of Sivas; almost a thousand women made up this caravan. Mrs. Kermanian tied a baby boy on her back, held tight to her little girl of four, and with her sister-in-law nd old mother-in-law moved on. The long tale of how the old motherin law lagged behind, finally dying from starvation, the 4-year-old child sleeping

In her arms; of the little one’s cries moving the soldiers to put her in another caravan to be rid of her, and the desertion by their Turkish guards after seven months’ travel on the way to Syria, when they were met by wild mounted troops, was told to the Travelers* Aid. Mrs. Kermanian, with pride in her broken voice, told of how the bravest of the women seized guns from the soldiers, and, mounting horses, fled, shooting backward at their pursuers; of finally reaching a crevice in the mountains, over which two of the women, including her-

self, made a living bridge over which the others crossed, and of the trampling to death of the baby who was tied ta her back. These things and the story of the sis-ter-in-law, who with her baby Jumped off a cliff rather than enter a harem, comprised the sad story told to tha brother in East Orange, when he asked for his wife, whom he left behind when he came to this country, “But I said through it all: ‘I have my God!’” declared the brave woman, whosa faith has withstood tests that would have destroyed belief in mauy others.
