Kelsey,. of the Latin department, will discuss tonight at the Presbyterian church. Professor Kelsey has recently returned from the Near East and his lecture is based on actual conditions as observed by him. The lecture, which is illustrated, is to be given under the auspices of the Women's Missionary society of the Presbyterian church. There will be no admission charged but a silver offering will be taken and used for the relief commissions operating in the East. Had Unusual Opportunities Professor Kelsey and George Swain, who did the photgraphy work, went to the Near East in 1919, as soon as the state department in Washington would permit them to go. The oppor- tunities which Professor Kelsey and, Mr. Swain had for the study of condi- tions in the Balkans and Turkey were; unusual. . Bulgaria had not yet signed the peace treaty and negotiations with the, Turkish government in regard to peace terms were in an acute stage when Professor Kelsey and Mr. Swain left this country. But having both military and diplomatic support they were givenI every possible facility to go wherever it was considered safe for them to travel. They reached Constantinople in December 1919 after spending some time in Bucharest, capitol of Rumania, and Sofia, the capitol of Bulgaria. With Relief Committee At that time the Berlin-Bagdad rail- road which during the war had been completed nearly to the Euphrates, was being put in order and irregular train service was beginning. The United States High commissioner in Constantinople arranged to send them with the director of the Near East re- lief and a number of workers from the Dermide, :which during the war was a German naval base, to Aleppo in Upper Syria. Three freight cars were filled with bunks and a. fourth was used as a kitchen and diningroom. The four cars were sidetracked at Konieh, which is the Iconium of the New Testament. In this manner Professor Kelsey and Ms. Swain had an opportunity to make a first hand study of conditions and to make photographs of the many as- pects of the relief work. None of these pictures are of the particular harrow- ing kind, rather they show the vast number of orphans helped through this relief as well as the adults who must for a time depend upon outside charity or die of starvation. Death Rate Enormous In Syria during the war, 25 per cent of the entire population starved to death and in some parts of the country the mortality from starvation alone ran as high as 65 per cent of the population. This was the result, according to Professor Kelsey, of a deliberate policy on the part of the Turks to starve the Syrians out, es- pecially the Christian Syrians. The near East Relief work during the war was carried on by American missionaries who stayed at their posts throughout all of that period, and whose funds came from this country. Immediately after the war an ef- ficient organization was created which has disbursed more than $30,000,000 in a single year. At the present mo- ment massacres and deportations of Greeks in Turkey and of Armenians who survived the deportations and massacres of the war, are in progress. PROF. PhILLIPS WILL SPEAK BEFORE STUDENTS AT 0. S. U. "Contact Between r. aduate and Under-Graduate Courses," will be the subject of a lecture which Prof. Ul- rich D. Phillips, of the history depart- ment of the University, will deliver today before the staff and graduate students at Ohio State University. Athena to Organize New Society Votes were taken Tuesday evening at a meeting of Athena Literary so- ciety as to the advisability of forming a new society similar to the Athena society. This action was unanimously favored for the fact that there is a large number of students on the camp- us who would do good work in such a society but who can not be taken into Athena because of the limit set to membership. A committee has been appointed to work on the plans of or- ganization and formal action will take place within a short time. Patronize our Advertisers.-Adv.
