SEEKS ARMY HERE
TO AVERTMURDER
General Torcom Wants Force
for Armenia to Replace
British Troops
WARNS OF IMPENDING CRIME
After taking steps for recruiting here
among Armenian workmen for an army
of flOOO or 10,000 to go to Armenia
when the British soldiers arc with
drawn, General Torcom, official repre
sentative of the Republic of Ararat will
lcae Philadelphia today for Washing
ton, to appear before the Senate foreign
relations committee. He has nppeared
before the committee before.
He explained hia plan to raise troops
for Armenia, at a meeting last night in
the I'arknny Building. Nearly half of
Philadelphia'!) 4000 Armenians crowded
the hnll to hear him. It was his first
address in his recruiting campaign and
the beginning of a tour of Amerlcn to
arouse Armenlnns in this country to
the dnnger of new massacres when the
British army is withdrawn from Ar
menia. General Torcom Is also asking Amer
ica to send troops and provisions to Ar
menin until ho can rnlsc his' troops here,
"The British nio gradually with
drawing the 00,000 men they have In
my country," he said, "and unless
the troops are replaced bv others, we
may expect a repetition of the whole
bale murders of our men. women and
children wo had during the war. We
lost 1,200,000 people through the mas
sacres nnd starvation and we cannot
afford to lose! more or we will be ex
terminated." "The Pence Conference has complete
ly decched the Armenians. Once more,
during a period of fortj years, the poli
ticians of the old world remnin immov
able before the tcmble tragedv of our
unfortunate countiy. Not only the Inrg.
est part of our territory, in which are
the graves of thousands of our martyrs,
but the cry existence of our new coun
try, is in danger.
"Ten months ago I appealed to my
countrymen in Europe and America for
aid in this crisis. I did not peimit
myself to be deceived by promises of
allied politicians," ho continued. "I
knew they had deceived us. Now we
must lme help from the Armenians in
America and America itself."
General Torcom will carry his cam
paign In every part of the country.
There Is a settlement of 100,000 Arme
nians In America.
While in this city General Torcom
was entertained by the local branch of
the Armenian National Democratic
Party.
