GREEK KING PREY
 TO GRIEF AND FEAR
Young Monarch Despondent Over
 Catastrophe to His Country

Athens, March a0.-Americans who have recently visited the palace de- scribe King George as a lonely, dis consulate young man. Tho utter col lapse of tho Greek army, the Smyrna catastrophe, the unexampled misery of hundreds of thousands of refugees, the internal convulsions in Greece, the execution of the former cabinet members, and the overthrow and sub sequent death of his father, King Constantine, have left deep impress on the youthful monarch Added to these troubles is the continued deli cate health of his wife, Princess Elizabeth of Rumania. whose life more than once has been in danger.
 The king is closely watched by the revolutionary committee, and all his official acts must have its approval. The latest step of this stern and un- compromising body was to sequester two of the late King Constantine's es- tates so that they would not fall into the hands of his successor, the pres- ent king.
 Palace is Seized
 The committee also seized the splen- did palace at Corfu built by William Hohenzollern. and for many years used by the Greek royal family as a summer home. The palace is now occupied as hospital by the Ameri- can Near East relief organization The use of the building for the treat ment of contagious diseases has great ly grieved the king. and he has ap- pealed to the Americans to secure other quarters.
 So many restrictions are put upon the new sovereign by the revolutions ary regime that he is little more than a figurehead. The Greek people al ways have been uncertain and fickle in the political and dynastic leanings and they seem to be quite indifferent to the young king. As factor in the affairs of the government, American

HOLDS MARRIAGE ILLEGAL

Indianapolis, Ind, March 30.--Mrs Edward Franklin White, deputy at- torney general of Indiana, in an in- formal opinion yesterday expressed the belief that the recent marriage of Rudolph Valentino film star, and Miss Winifred Hudnut at Crown Point. Ind, was illegal. No action against the couple is contemplated by state authorities, however, who point out that county officials are responsi- ble for determining the eligibility of applicants for marriage licenses.

RUSSIAN ENVOY HERE
Soviet Trade Monopoly Being Taken Part In By That Country-Customs House Closed.


 Vladivostok, March 3o.-Mr. L, Serebriakoff, former assistant minis ter of communications. has been sent here as the representative of the de- partment of labor and defense. This is the highest department of the state and comprises the most highly placed communists.
 On January 30, the customs house was closed for all commercial opera tions, and no goods can be imported until it has been proved that they are not in the category of those whose import has been forbidden by order of the Soviet government.
 The opinion was expressed at a meeting of the Far Eastern board of communications that the monopoly of foreign trade by the government as a political weapon against the capital istic countries, would not give the same result in the Far East as it would on the western front. owing to the fact that the one nation whose frontiers march with those of Russia is China, and "the political opinion of China is dictated by the western world"
