London. March II Pl - Two persons Were killed and a number injured during the strike troubles in Athens yesterday, says a delayed dispatch from the Greek capital.
 The casualties occurred when the soldiers used their rifles to dis perse crowd which had assem- bled despite a police order forbid ding mass meetings in connection with the strike.
 The movement began as a pro test against taxes. The government took stern measures to suppress it.. warning the shopkcepers, who par tIcipated, that unless they reopene1 their shops. the rent restriction act would be lifted, leaving them un- protected against the landlords.
 The clash with the soldiers oc- cured when demonstrators, march ing with banners up University street. refused to disperse Bremen directed streams of water against them without result, and then the soldiers fired.

Port Said and Port Fuad, are, by nature of their business, cosmopoli- tan. The official language, which will be taught in Port Fuad schools, is French. We are accustomed to regard the Suez Canal as a British canal. Indeed, Britains owns large block of stock. Britain has the mli- tary responsibility for the canal. Yet the headquarters of the Compagnia lniverselle du Canal Maritime de Suez are in Paris and the majority of its 30 directors are French. Management Of the canal Is en- trusted to French engineers.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BURLINGTON, VT, June 4.-The
number of physicians in the State OF
Vermont has been slowly dwindling
for Is to 90 years and will continue
to decrease for many years to come,
according to DR.. ]. n. JENNIE, dean
of the Medical College at the Univer-
sity Of Vermont, who has made a plea
for an increase in the facilities for
training men and women in the medi-
cal profession.
There are 10 Vermont towns which
formerly had physicians now without
their services, DIR. Jenne pointed out.
Furthermore, he stated that the num-
Der of physicians in the State Is years
ago was about 635, as compared with
497 in 1926, and that it was his per-
sonal belief that Is years from now
Vermont would have only about 220 or
$50 doctors.
DR.. Jenne made plea for the finan-
cial support of the hospitals which
serve as training schools for the medi-
cal students. since at present they are
not large enough to accommodate the
number of students who should be
graduated each year.
