MORE trouble looms for Greece.
1V1 Last week the military court
martial in Athens found guilty a num-
Der of those accused of conspiracy to
commit high treason in connection
with the defeat of the Greek armies
by the Turks, and six of them were
condemned to death. These were for
mer Premiers Gounaris, Stratos and
Protopapadal1is former Cabinet Mem
bers Baltazzi and Theotokis and Gen
eral Hadjanestis, who commanded the
Asia Minor armies. General Stratigos
and Admiral Goudas were condemned
to life imprisonment. Great Britain,
through Minister F. o. Lindley, was
quick to protest against the carrying
out Of the death sentences, but the
Greeks ignored this and within few
hours the six were lined up and shot.
Minister Lindley at oEce notified the
Greek government that Great Britain
had broken off relations with it and he
departed for Lausanne to confer with
Lord Curzon, the British foreign minis
ter. Just why the British felt it their

no other nation has followed the lead
of Britain, but it was said in Washing

indefinite postponement of recognition
of the Greek government by the Unit

d'affaires in Athens, on his personal
account advised against it.
King George did not approve Of the
executions and asked permission to
leave the country. Instead, he was
held under strict -,Irveillance in the
royal palace just outside of Athens.

carefully concealed, the official com

conjecture, send out many stories of

believe some of these are based on
truth. 1t is certain that the two COM

frontiers Of Turkey and the possession
of the Mosul oil fields are making lit

recognize the Mudros armistice of
1918, decline to accept responsibility
for the cost of maintaining allied

r TNCLB SAM is getting exceedingly
- annoyed by the prohibition en-
forcement question. Several recent
occurrences have "got under his skin"
President Harding's expressed opinion
that liquor would long be factor in
politics was so misinterpreted that he
felt the necessity of letting the country
know he is and has been absolutely in
favor of enforcing the Eighteenth
amendment. Then came the orgy in
Philadelphia, following the Army
Navy football game, in which the vio-
lation Of the law was fragrant. Now
the government has instructed federal
authorities everywhere to cooperate
closely with the prohibition enforce
ment agencies and the federal attor-
neys are told to push all pending Ii
quor cases and, when proper, to urge
the imposition Of the heaviest penal
ties on conviction. Fifty new prohi-
bition agents were added to the force
in Philadelphia.

THE Italian chamber Of deputies, by
i vote of 275 to 80, gave to Pre-
mier Mussolini full power to bring
about economic reforms and carry out
a rehabilitation of Italian finances. He
is, in fact, in the position of receiver
for a nearly bankrupt country. The
extent Of his support by the people is
indicated by the fact that many labor
organizations have offered to work one
extra hour a day for the benefit OF the
government.

the chief interest Of the voters of
England today with the PROSPECT of

the war against the conservatives.
Up to now he has not said anything
definite as to his Intentions in this
matter.
The sound thrashing labor re-
ceived on Wednesday in the munic-
ipal elections throughout the coun-
try has caused the opponents Of

the laborites themselves. The Lead

party workers may too readily as

liberal and conservative camps urg-
ing the workers not to abate their
energies to prevent a labor victory

showing what gulf exists between
municipal questions and issues oi

Rebukes Prelate Who Called 1t
"RevOlution"; "Merely Change
of Government"

Rome, Nov. 3.-(By The Asso-
ciated Press.)-Pope Plus gave in
tense interest to every phase of the
armed but peaceful revolution in
Italy which brought the Fascist
into power. During all the regent
exciting days in which the older
politicians passed from the scene
and the black-shirted followers of
Mussolini took their places, his
Holiness received Information every
hour from the Vatican secretaries,
ever repeating the desire that
bloodshed might be avoided.
A prelate, who on viewing the
entry of the Fascist troops into
Rome remarked that ''the revoln-
ton" had been successful, was re-
buked by the pope.
ut is not a revolution, it is
merely a change of government
the pope is reported to have said.
While no official comment is OBJ
tainable at the Vatican regarding
the advent of Mussolini to power
those close to the pontiff say that
the policy Of the Holy See will not
be affected by the change in the
political life of Italy. The Vatican
policy remains one of dignity, ST.
lence and aloofness.

manufacture of which celluloid is
used. The fire started on the sec

Immediately girls rushed to the
window. While the panic was a!

He touched one or two and is be-
lieved to have broken their falls.
One girl was seen hanging to a
sill on the second floor. She was
forced to let go when the flames
came close.
Three girls escaped by ascend
ing a stairway from the third fool
through a garret, climbing a lad
der to the roof and then descend

MAJOR ASTOR,S
REMARKS STIR
LONDON PRESS
bringing His Wealth
to England He
Declares.

London. Nov. 3.-The remark
made yesterday by Major John
Jacob Astor, who said Il am trans
ferring my wealth from America to
this country" was treated as big
item of news in this mornings pa
pers. One headline read: "Astor
millions coming here"
BY some it was assumed that the
major, who is a brother of Viscount
Astor, merely referred to his re-
cent investment in Lord North
cliffe's share of the London Times
stock which he and ]. A. Walter
purchased for more than $4,000, 900,
but others gave the remark a more
sensational turn.
Major AstOr, who is contesting
for a seat from Dover in the COM
. ing elections, made the statement
! in replying to a heckler who in
quired whether, he was going to
expose his own wealth to British
| taxation.
New York Interested
New York, Nov. 3.-There was
much speculation in New York to-
day over the reported announce
ment in London yesterday by Ma
jor John Jacob Astor that he was
transferring his wealth from Amer.
lea to England. The realty ant
personal holdings of the late Baron
(William Waldorf Astor in the
United States totaled more thar
| $50. 900, 900, according to a referees
report filed last March in supreme
court
| Of this vast fortune, in which
Major Astor participated with Wis.
count Astor, his elder brother. $50.
100000 is represented in realty
The property was conveyed to thf
two sons in trust in 1919, and the
income from that source is placed
at $5,291. .260. In addition Major
Astor was given outright by his ia
ther Manhattan realty valued a.
more than s7,0OO,O00.
Several pieces of New York prop
erty have been sold by Major Astol
in the last few years. but it is con
sidered unlikely he will dispose oi
all real estate in this country, bu
rather will transfer his income
of personal property to England.
