THE LIBERATION OF THE GREEK PEOPLE IN TURKEY
An Appeal Issued by the London Committee of Unredeemed Greeks.
Norbury, Natzio & Co. Ltd.
Manchester and London, 1919.
An 11 page booklet compiled by The London Committee of Unredeemed Greeks who were calling for the liberation of Greeks in Ottoman Turkey using 22 points and the inclusion of 1912 population statistics of Greeks in Turkey.
From the booklet:
1. The appended summary of statistics, compiled by the Greek Bureau of Foreign Information, shows that in the year 1912 the unredeemed Greeks in Thrace, Constantinople, and Asia Minor numbered a litle more than 2.5 million.[...]
16. The pamphlet issued by the Greek Foreign Office, and mentioned on a preceeding page, contains official and other evidence which places beyond doubt the responsibility of Germany for the persecution endured by the Greeks during 1913-1914.[...]
22. It is on behalf of that part of the Greek race which is still under the Turkish yoke; it is on behalf of unredeemed Greeks in Constantinople, Thrace and Asia Minor that we venture to make an earnest appeal to Liberal public opinion in Europe, and more especially to the British public, the lover of freedom, and the champion of oppressed nationality and of the cause of civilisation throughout the world.
It is inconceivable that the end of a great war, which was fought and won for the cause of freedom and the principle of nationalities, should leave such a very large number of intelligent industrious, cultured and freedom-loving Christians under the brutal power of the Turk. We may also say that the deliverance of the unredeemed Greeks would be in accordance with one of Mr. Wilson's fourteen points, and that a lasting peace cannot be expected to reign in the East until that happy consummation has been attained.
