(By Associated Press). lAmbassador Child, and the heads af the other delegations to the near east conference were asked to- day to lend their aid In providing a national homeland for tha Armen ians. Eev. Dr. George' It. Montgomery, director of the Armenla-Amerloan society, visited the delegations sep arately and presented a petition on behalf of those Americans who have given millions of dollars to help tha Armenians suffering as a result of the war. Br. Montgomery said the Ameri cans were anxious that the Lausanne oonferanca should Induce Turkey to designate a portion of its land where these refugees might be settled Into soma quarters and "provisions made for establishing permanently or phanages, hospitals, schools and oth er institutions for this miserable race whlofi,-repeatedly uprooted by mili tary operations, now has no place to go." Tha petition suggests that por-, tlon of Cillcla tributary, to the port of Alexandretta as tha most suit able looatlon. The territory Is trian gular In shape and of about the same area as the stata of Connecti cut. Tha memorandum recalls the promises made by Franoa and Eng land to provide a homeland for the Armenians, who were their allies In the great war. and mentions the' da olslon taken at the recent meeting of the league of nations assembly that provision for snch a homeland must be an essential feature of any treaty mads wlih Turkey. The national Asmenlan committee, wwlah to en oaarMtogwith Dr. Mont gomery's organlsatlonrexpr'els'ei ccm ftdenca that an Armenian national horn established Under the admin istrative control either of the league of nations or some European power Would soon become self-sustaining. In OreenBboro, Asheville and other North -Carolina towns, where hotter buildings were needed, but he added that it ws cxtremrly doubtful about rotting any building legislation on the statute books during this ses sion of Congress, as the admin Istra tioff is "set" agalhst allowing an appropriation for this purpose to be made, on the score of economy. Never thelesa, the committee Intends to put the problem up to Congress and the administration, tpr tha sooner a public buildings bill Is passed the more money will be saved to the treasury, In the opinion of Chair man Langley. He thinks for the government to allow Its public build ings to fall Into decay as many of them are doing, is a sheer wasta of money. Members of Congress have begun their annual distribution of seed for gardens and backyards and there Is not a congressman who does not qe- mand his quota of - 20,000 packets. The demand grows every year on the part of the people. Last year the government spent $880,000 for the nurohaae of seed, and the agricul tural department estimated that the American people produced with this seed 1182.000,000 wdrth of vegetables But the department la firmly op posed to spending tha above turn for free seed distribution. It wants this monev to buy rare and valuable seed from foreign countries, but so long as the people want the seed the department is not likely to have Its way. , , ' .
