to voluntary soolotlea»-

I have to-day had c meeting with Ur. Harold

Hoxton or the "Lord Mayor's Fund". Ho says that bo

far ne he oan m- ke out the appeal for the Near Bast

Refugees is not going at all veil In Ungland, that the

Voluntary Organisations really hardly know whether

they are making an appeal or not, and thnt. In any

oaee, they have not brought home their appeal Sn the

minds of the publlo,

I suggest that, thin being bo, it le of great

importance to organise a supply of lnrormntlon at the

earliest possible moment, end to begin by penning to

all the voluntary orgf.nluatIons Dr. laneen* s world

appeal, and suoh other information whloh <re have

available, e.g. the lAtat- reports, rind perhrps Iso

the first reports from Colonel Jarvis and Mr. Saun­

ders from Salonla.

I wugTwst that Mice .ooket uhould perhaps get

thfcueready with the least pOielble delay and despatch

them at onoe to the "All 3rltlsh Fund", the "Lord

Mayor's Fund", the " Imperial War Fund", the "Save the

Children Fund", «to,

I uuggost that the appeal and the information

ou aooompiinled oy a letter explaining that the High

C o m l ’ uarlat lu .ending those in the hope that they

may )0 ueeiul to the voluntary organisations in their

I rm re:uestod by Mr. Baker to draw your attention

to Artlole 8 of the Russo-Turkish Treaty signed and

ratified in March I92I*

Thlo article runs e follo'-a:-

"lioth oontrcctlng parties f.gree not to : dmit the for- metIon or residence In their respective territories of organisations or groups pretending to the rôle of Government ovor either party, or ovor 0 part of Its terrltoty, os well as the residence of groups rhioh have for their ooject to conspire og; Inst either party. Russie t.nd Turkey take upon themselves the name obli­gation In regard to tho uovlet Republics of the Cau­casus, ou condition of nutuallty.

It Is ooneldered as established that under Turkish territory mentioned In this article if. understood the territory situated under j»he direct military fjid civil administration of tho Government of the Groat nation 1 " ueembiy of Turkey»"

This treaty vas nuollshed in the "Manchester Guardian" of

Wednesday, .September 27th, IV22.

Ux, Baker obcervee that the clause Is slightly ambi­

guous and might bear either Refets Interpretation of an

obligation to break up concentrations of refugees, or Hamiffe

interpretation directed against oertain individual revo-

lutlonory leaders*

Dear Dr. Mansen,

I have received yoar letter dated December 9th,

for Mr. Colline, and have concluded from the first para­

graph that you give me the authorization to aek Mr. Lodge

to p c y Colline the difference on the flour contract.

I had also nent copiée of Collins letter to Lodge

sal Baker, and enclose herewith a copy of Lodge'e reply*

Baker has also written to me In the came strain saying

that he docs not see fchw It was possible to get out of

the contract which has been signed on your authorisation.

Baker adds that he very much regrets not having realised

at the moment the risk we were running r a d that he feels that

he must also take part of the responsibility for this un­

fortunate result.

Believe me,

Messieurs,

J»ai l'av-ntage de voub remettre ol-Joint une lettre originale de M. . ghaeslan, ex-Dlreotour de 1' ::oole arménienne de .,mjrrne, qui ee trouve actuellement à .thènes.

Cette lettre,adressée en premier lieu à la Crolx-!:ouge suisse à Genève, a étd ensuite envoyée à l'-.otlon du Dr iluneen pour lo recours à 11. Kussle, laquelle noue l’a trunemiee.

Il nous semblerait pratique el voue vouliez bien faire parvenir cette demande à votre représentant à -.thtaee qui, sans doute, ont mieux qualifié pour examiner le oüb de : . ghaeelan et attirer l'ittentlon de quelque organisation lnterna- tlon le charitable our Sf,a beeolno.

Co- e vou b le aavek , le Dr Monsen a décidé de ne par distribuer de secours directs, nuis de ae borner entièrement à acsicter le Gouverne­ment grec dans b o b !» sures en vue d'empecher le développement do n.ludleB épldénlquee parmi les réfugiée; c’ost pourquoi il ee voit malheur use rient dans l'impv:sibllité d’acoorder à . .xghassiun les secours qu'il demande.

Veuille* agréer, enaleurs, l'expreusion de rave sentiments distinguée.
