AS FRANCE SEES

ARMENIANS ASK INDEPENDENCE LONDON, Feb. 13. - Armenia's Fourth of July is January 31. On that day a year ago, her independence was proclaimed. It was a critical and anxious moment when Armenia took her memorable step. General Arsene Torcom, leader of the Armenian mission now here, told a representative of the Associated Press. Harassed on all sides by Turks, Kurds and other hostile tribesmen, with Turkish troops preparing a big offensive in which the Tartars and Georgians were making ready to participate, with all communications cut and no help expected, Armenia's plight seemed helpless. But with unshaken confidence in the power of the allies to triumph in the end, representatives of the population gathered at the ancient city of Garine, better known as Erzerum, and solemnly proclaimed the independence of Armenia, comprising the Great Armenia, Little Armenia and Cilicia, and formally put the country under the protection of England, the United States, France and Italy. Shortly before noon a procession formed and marched to military headquarters where it was received by General then Colonel Torcom, chief of the Erzerum garrison. The procession was composed of citizens, provincial delegates, members of the Armenian Council of Defense, clergymen, educators, representatives of various Armenian committees, delegates from the Mussulman population, a Russian army commander. Lieutenant General Odechelidze, his staff and the staff and line officers of the Armenian forces. The tri-colored Armenian flag, made and presented by orphans of the town of Vasporagan, was hoisted, and while the crowd was cheering, a salute of 101 guns was fired from the citadel. Colonel Torcom, seated on a horse in the middle of the square formed by Armenian soldiers, gave the command, "Present Arms." Then saluting the flag with his sabre, he read the Act of Independence. The proclamation sketched the early history of Armenia, recounting the country's struggles and sufferings at the hands of the Turks and declared: "Armenia has been waiting during 550 years, suffering and bathed in blood, for the hour of final deliverance. Today that hour has at last struck." General Torcom plans to Tlsit each of the principal allied nations and to go to the United States in the spring. To the correspondent he said: "It is, I hope, only a question of weeks, perhaps of days, before the independence of our country is recognized by the allied powers." dress, and a general discussion of the life of Lincoln,, by all-members,: followed. : The club will hold its next meeting. March 5 with Mrs. Laura Miller at her home southwest of the city.

Incidents of men stretching the truth considerably to get into the British army when England needed every man and then resorting virtually to mutiny to get out after the armistice was signed have been shown at Folkestone during investigation of the first demobilization demonstrations there. After several hundred men had declined to embark for France at the end of their. Christmas leave the military authorities began investigating each case separately. One man who might be judged anywhere from 38 to 50 years of age appeared before the examining officers. "On what ground do you think you should be released now?" he was asked. "I'm more than 41 years of age," he said relying upon the rule that men of that age or more should be released as soon as possible. . "But your army book shows you enlisted fifteen months ago at the age of 35." . "I gave that as my age to get in, sir. I am 50 years old now." "You will, have to prove that," came a quick reply, whereupon he turned to a middle aged woman spectator, his wife, who had anticipated the situation and produced a birth certificate. He will be released at once and the method by which he volunteered will be conveniently forgotten. During the last year of the war no miners were allowed to join the army. Their ranks already had been depleted until barely enough coal was being produced. Another demonstrator claimed he should be released because he was a miner. His record showed he represented himself as a fish-monger in oj;der to join the colors. When he proves he is a miner he will be released. City Statistics Deaths and Funerals. Coggshall Robert B.
