Apathy as to Armenia and Macedonia

Denounces apathy as to Armenia and Macedonia

Speech by Anatole France

He Says 300,000 Armenians Have Fallen by the Sultan's Orders.

"M. France declared that 300.000 Armenians had fallen by order of the "Red Sultan" and that in Macedonia soldiers and officials slaughtered the peasants whose wifes and doughters they maltreated...

...In conclucion M. France demanded the full execution of the provisions of the Berlin treaty affecting Macedonia and Armenia."
