Presidents Aid Plea for Armenian Peace Concert
A broad European petition urges President Roosevelt to convene a concert of powers and seek Armenia’s protection. Framed by M Berthelot and signed by French, Belgian, Italian, and English figures, the appeal asks for Berlin treaty action and a special conference to resolve the Armenian question. James B Reynolds delivers the plea to Roosevelt, who offered no immediate response. Seaboard Florida Limited advertises its luxury Pullman service from Washington to St. Augustine.

Preachers Hear Printers Over Eight Hour Strike
New York clergy from the Methodist Episcopal Church met a committee of striking printers from the Methodist Book Concern in January. The printers argued the eight hour day was just and say they were locked out to push better conditions. Rev. Dr. R. G. Cook urged that the Book Concern, though not a commercial entity, aids widows and orphans and worn‑out ministers and should not be treated as a closed shop. The church would consider remedies for the printers.
