CHAPTER VII<br />

STATISTICS <strong>OF</strong> DEPORTATIONS<br />

IT has been under such harsh and cruel conditions that<br />

thousands of Greeks have been transferred from one end<br />

of the Ottoman Empire to the other. According to a<br />

rough calculation the number of those deported amounts<br />

to 240,000, as is indicated by the table of statistics<br />

shown below to which should be added those who have<br />

been deported from the interior of Asia Minor to other<br />

places, but whose deportation did not come under the<br />

controlling observation of the Greek Consular authorities.<br />

It should be noted furthermore that the crimes and persecutions<br />

continue, increasing day by day the number of<br />

victims of the Germano-Turkish savagery.<br />
