DETECTIVE SHOT
BY BLACK BANDIT
Veteran Oklahoma City officer in
Critical Condition as Result of
Shooting Affray on Board
Katy Train.
(By The United Press !

Oklahoma City, Nov. 29.-Joe
Palmer veteran Oklahoma City de-
tective and special agent for the
Katy railroad, was probably fatally
injured in thrilling fight with a
negro suspect on board a speeding
train from Kansas City early today.
The negro, suspected of robbing
store and depot in small Oklahoma
town, was finally shot down and
riddled with bullets by special agents
accompanying Palmer. The negro
will not live, attendants at a local
hospital said.
Turmoil reigned in the train coach,
crowded with passengers, when
Palmer and two special agents at
tempted to take the negro into Gus
tody. The black met the officers
with drawn pistol. Passengers
climbed to tops of seats and took
shelter from flying bullets.
For time free-for-all fight
threatened when negroes from the
front part Of the train rushed into
the white section. Quiet was re-
stored when the apparently crazed
negro was disarmed.
Papers found on the negro bore the
name of George Grey"
The fight started when the train
was only six miles from Oklahoma
City.

Athens, Nov. pa little group of
statesmen and one soldier-formerly
general in supreme command OF
the Greek armies-strolled into n
stone tagged yard early yesterday
and faced death like gentlemen.
Today II IS possible to relate for
the first time the story Of how five
members OF the cabinet that fell
with King Constantine. and the man
who led the troops OF Greece
against the Turk, were executed by
firing squad
Condemned to death for treason,
held responsible for the crushing
defeat administered to the Greeks
by Mistapha Kemal, the ministers
at first refused to believe the gov
ernment would really go through
with it. They were aware that the
British threatened to sever relations
if they were killed and other power
full influences were called on in
their behalf, in vain.
All were on hand except former
Premier Gounaris, who was too Ill
to leave his bed for the pre-death
ceremonies.
Immediately after the communion,
the condemned men were hurried to
the place of execution. Gounaris,
scarcely able to raise his head, was
rolled out of bed onto stretcher,
placed in an ambulance and so con
veyed to the spot selected.
Six squads of soldiers, five rifle
men in each were waiting there to
send the fallen statesmen into the
next world. They stood like auto
nations, eyes straight ahead, as
emotionless as wax figures, as the
prisoners were brought in.
Gounaris was lifted out of the am
bulance and placed before the fir
ing squad. He was too sick to pay
much attention to what was going

thrust deep in his pockets, he stood
there with his hand bowed until the
volley crashed.
Gounaris dreamed of making war
and restoring "the ancient glory
that was Greece He failed and
paid with his life.
Baltazis, who has been a cabinet
minister under several premiers,
was debonair to the last. He
couldn't conceal his nervousness as
ho faced death. 1t manifested
itself in the fidgetty way he kept
polishing his monocle, occasionally
putting it to his eye to look over the
preparations for execution.

of the armies of Greece in their

President lIardlng's leadership over
the republican majority in congress
will come TO a final vote in the
house late today with the outcome
very much I'm doubt.
Administration leaders. taking
stock after a fight In which they
have thrown every ouce of their
power behind the president, pro-
fessed confidence the subsidy would
pass by not Tess than twenty votes"
Opponents claimed they had the bill
beaten by "at least ten votes"
Those estimates, based on polls"
made by the contending factions, in
dicate how close the vote will be.
The thing that was worrying both
sides was the probability that fifty
or sixty members will not be on
hand to vote.
Although kilograms have been
sent out calling in all abesntees,
there undoubtedly will be consider
able number who will not respond.
If the bill passes the house, Presi-
dent Harding will have succeeded
in pushing ship subsidy legislation
further than any other presidnt.
