STILL Is UNIDENTIFIED.
81 900 Reward Spurs Police, Misled
by Fake Clues.

PITTSBURGH, August 20 P).-
Spurred on by posting Of a $1,000
reward. police investigating the bomb
ing of the Farmers Deposit Savings
Bank today redoubled their efforts to
identify the bomber, whose body lies
in the city morgue.
The reward was offered by the Pitts
burgh Gazette Times for information
leading to identification of the man
who on Tuesday set off the bomb
which brought death to himself and
to a special policeman. More than a
score of others were injured and a
portion of the banking rooms was
wrecked.
Two possible identifications having
been discarded as erroneous. police
were working on q third clue, which
they believed might lead them to dis
covery of the bonber'S name. With
that much learned, they believed they
would have little trouble establishing
a motive for the bombing.
This cine was in the form of a tele-
phone number. written upon a scrap
of paper found in the dead mans
watch pocket. The number was that
of a contractor who told police the
only man he knew of that might have
had his phone number was Frank n.
Andrecci, a stone mason.
Andrecci, it was definitely learned,
is alive. although he was not at home
when police went there to question
him. Authorities were seeking him
today in an effort to discover whether
he might have known the bomber,
who was believed to have been en-
ployed in quarries or mines where ex.
plosives are used. This belief was
based on the bomber's apparent
familiarity with explosives.
Meanwhile most of the "a persons
injured by the blast had returned to
their homes. Seven still remain in
hospitals, four Of them in a critical
condition. Mrs. George Ortmann. wife
of the policeman killed in the blast
was reported seriously i'll from shock.

CONDYL|S CABINET
FORMED IN GREECE
Follows Demand of People
for Coalition Group, With
Threats of Lynching.

by the Associated t'reSS.
ATHENS. Greece, August 26.-Gen
Condylis, who overthrow the Panga
los dictatorship last Sunday, has
formed his own cabinet in which he
will take the portfolios of war and
marine. The new ministers will be
sworn in soon.
A huge mass meeting held In Con
stitution Square passed a resolution
demanding that there shall be a coali.
ton cabinet. The chairman of the
meeting, NJ. Harjikiriakos, later pre-
scented the resolution to Admiral Coun
dOuriotis. who has resumed his presi
dental powers. He told the president
that the meeting had commissioned
him to say that the people of Greece
would repudiate any party leaders
who INSTRUCTED the formation of a
coalition government, which it was
believed alone could save the coun
try from further catastrophes. He
said there were even some persons
among the crowd prepaid to lynch
| INSTRUCTORS of the demand.
Leaders i'm Disagreement.
Admiral Coundouriotis replied that
he fully shared the peoples desire
but that unfortunately there was
little prospect of agreement between
the political leaders.
The leaders later conferred at the
presidential palace. There was a
mand Of the people apparently in
fiuenced some of them to favor the
demand, but Constantine Demerdjis
former minister of marine, and NJ.
Tsaldaris, former minister of COM
munications, opposed it. Tsaldaris de-
clared he would only agree if M.
DemerdjiS were made premier, in
which case he himself would accept
the portfolio of war and marine.
Elections Promised Soon.
Gen. Condylis maintained that a
coalition could only be formed under
move his opponents failed. and
Admiral Coundouriotis thereupon an
nounced that the only course was to
entrust CondyIis with the formation
of a business cabinet on condition
that elections should be held not later
than October.
Gen. Tlastiras, who headed the
revolutionary committee which de-
posed King Constantine in 1922 and
expelled King George in 1925, but
who subsequently was himself de-
ported on suspicion of plotting against
the government. is to be allowed to
return to Greece. 1t is said that he
arrived at Gratzko, Jugoslavla. travel
ing toward Greece, but the Jugoslav
government stopped him and con-
suited the Greek legation. The ques-
ton was referred to Gen. Condylis,
who replied that now that tyranny
had been abolished in Greece, Tlas
tiras might return home.

IL
point of the President and Secretary
OF State There is no question that
the Gales administration does not rel
ish the insistence which Ambassador
Sheffield has exhibited, and, would be
iubilant if he did not come back to
his post. This was shown In editorials
of Mexican papers which recently
reached here.
To have permitted Mr.. Sheffield to
relinquish his post. as he has lndi-
Gated from time 10 time a desire TO
do. would have been construed in
Mexico as a weakening on the part
of the American Government and
would have made more difficult the
work of n successor. And besides,
Mr.. Sheffield has fought the fight of
his career and desires to leave his
mission only with q record of having
achieved something for the Govern
ment which has been pleading lnces-
sanity for recognition of its rights
from the Mexican government.
L. :. in Awkward Position.
The United States is in an awk-
ward nosition also because the Euro
pean governments have passed on
their troubles in Mexica to the Wash
ington Government. They make no
strong protests of their own. though
their nationals are being affected by
retroactive laws just as are Amerl-
can citizens.
The diplomatic corps In Mexico

for initiative and leadership. Natural

war days.
