    LOS ANGELES, MAY 8, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. The Armenian Memory
    Center published American Armenian attorney Vartkes Yeghiayan's
    book which presents the report about the ethnic annihilations in
    Anatolia prepared by one of subdivisions of the British Government,
    the Armenian-Greek department, in 1919-1922.

    The report is addressed to the British Foreign Ministry and involves
    87 documents which tell how Turk nationalists, headed by founder of
    the modern Republic of Turkey and slaughterer Mustafa Kemal Ataturk,
    annihilated in Anatolia the Armenian and Greek ethnic elements and how
    they mopped up churches and educational institutions and occupied 40%
    of the Armenian lands.

    V. Yaghiayan writes: "And when it became clear that the Britons
    can not liquidate Ataturk any longer, they closed that subdivision,
    left Constantinople and left Armenians and Greeks at Turks' command."
