GOVERNOR PROBING
 PENITENT|ARY FIRE
To Reveal Attitude Next Week
 On Warden'S Suspension

Columbus, O., April 26 P(-The task of determining where to place responsibility for the loss of 320 lives in the Ohio pcnitentiary fire was faced by Governor Myers Y. Cooper today.
 His decision will be made known early next week-possibly Monday after he has studied a report of the states official Investigation which ended yesterday, four days from the time flames and smoke made a death trap of d portion of the old prison.
 Governor to Decide
 At the same time, the governor is expected to reveal his attitude regarding a proposal that Warden Preston F. Thomas/ be suspended temporarily. Attorney General Bett- man. who directed the investigation, suggested this action as a means of averting disorders at the prison where the convicts declared an open revolt and threatened to kill guards
 
 In striking contrast 10 the general bcdlam that followed the ghastly scenes of Monday night, the prison was quiet today, although the con- victs maintained their opposition 10 Thomas.
 The investigation failed 10 uncov- CT anything that would indicate the cause of the fire.
 The governor, in studying the tes- timony, will have only the contra dictory statements of prison off cials, guards and convicts concern ing efforts to rescue the prisoners. Some of the witnesses gave the opin- ion that most if not all, of tho men could have been saved had the cage door leading to. the cells been open cd promptly. Others blamed argu- nents between the guards for the delay. .
 Says Door Never Locked
 Tho final witness, Guard Hubert l.. Richardson, however startled questioners with the statement that the door was never kept locked.
 l'ifty-seven of the 320 victims will rest in Columbus cemeteries. Eighteen of the bodies were uni identified and 49 were unclaimed by relatives.
 The burials were postponed until .<oday in the hope that relatives might yet claim additional bodies or identify the unknown dead.

GREECE GETS EVEN
 FOR SMYRNA LOSS
Refugees Bring Industries and Hope for New Golden Age

Washington. D. C.. April 26. - Greece, on the centenary of her suc- cessful revolt against the Turk faces the future stronger than she has been for 2,300 years.
 Athens (AthenaD with her new suburbs and Port Piraeus (Peiraievs) has won a high trade position in the Near East.
 Two rich prizes of war have more than paid the cost of Smyrna's s loss, for when 100000 destitute refugees descended upon Greece they brought in their seemingly empty hands the Turkish carpet and the Turkish tobacco industries says q bulletin of the National Geograph- ic society from it's headquarters in Washington, D. C.
 Athens University with 10000 students has chairs of philosophy for modern Plates and science profes- sorships for new Archimedes.
 "The Gennadeion, a library built by Greek and American effort, holds 50,000 volumes on Greek culture and history for a latter day Socrates and Herodotus.
 "A splendid new stadium under the shadow of the Acropols take the place of that ancient meeting place for athletes at Olympus where the Olympic games were first con. tested.

 New and splendid buildings ac knowledging in their style the geniu! of Periclcs rise on all sides.
 Greek progress, evident through out the peninsula, makes 1t difficul to appreciate that one hundred year ago the proud people of Ulysses ant Agamemnon had been ground undc many heels; Afexanders heel. th' Roman heel, the Venetian heel, ant for 400 years the Turkish heel.
 American Heroes of Greek Freedom
 "Sm moldering resentment agains Moslem domination broke out il 1921, beginning the nine-year battl' for freedom. Admirers of Greece II many lands rushed to her support a Lafayette, Kosciusko, and Won Steu ben rushed to the Upited States Americans and English vied witt each other to raise money for tn support of the Greek revolution President Monroe sent a message 0 encouragement to which Jefferson Adams and Madison added thei wishes for Greek success. Dr. Samue Howe, husband of Julia Ward Howe author of the Battle Hymn of tn Republic,' sailed to Greece soon aft CT his graduation from Harvard joined the revolutionists, and becam' surgeon-general.
 "Other American heroes of tn Greek revolution were Colonel Jona

than, Miller of Vermont, whose ex- penses were paid by Boston; George Wilson of Rhode Island; and James l Williams, a negro from Baltimore, who had served under Decatur. The fervor of America has been preserv- ed forever in the name Ypsilanti, Michigan, in honor of a Greek patfi- | ot of the day.
 Most famous of the foreigners who came to the aid of Greece was the poet Lord Byron, then at the height of his fame. A suburb and boulevard of Athens today honor 1 his memory. His fame has ob- scured the services of others; Lord Cochrane, admiral of the Greek navy; General Church. commander in-chief of the land forces; Colonel Fabvier of France, and Meyer of | Germany.
 Any nation subject to conquer ors for 2,3OO years takes time to re- cover boise. One hundred years is a moment by comparison. Under meath a stormy century of kings, presidents and dictators in rapi1 succession. Greece has advanced to a sound condition in 1880. The present head of the government, Venizelos, is the only war premier still at the lead of government.
 Heavy Trade With United States
 American influence, important { during the revolution 100 years ago, is even more vital now.. Commerce with the United States is heavier than with any other nation. Ameri- can. sailors, an American disaster relief committee. and Greek ships flying the American flag aided the embarkation of Greek refugees aft CT the holocaust at Smyrna. An American is chairman of the board for the settlement of the refugees who numbered one-flfth the total population of Greece. American companies and engineers are engag- ed in the reclamation of Vardar and Struma river swamps for wheat fields and in the building of the first important water system for Athens olHSS AIodl idii puliI dll d4ucuuCl.
 "Then there arc the American minded Greeks who have been to the United States. No village, as tourists in Greece soon discover, is without one.
 Greece remains an agricultural nation, although only one fifth of its surface (49,000 square miles; equal to New York state) is suitable for farming. Olives that were so high ly valued by the ancient Greeks arc no less important to modern Greeks who care for 30,0o0.000 olive trees. Currant-growing is likewise an an- cient industry. Climate and soil con- ditions of the western shores of Pel- eponnesus and on the islands of Zante (Zakynthos), and Cephalonia i (Kephallenia), practically guaran- tee a world monopoly in the growth of the small, seedless currant grape that has been raised successfully elsewhere only in Californa and Aus tralia. Half a million Greeks depend for ther livelihood upon the currant crop.
 "The United States chief import from Greece is. strange to say, Tur- kish tobacco. Small leaf tobacco of the Near East was raised in Mace- donia when that region was still Turkish but the production has been greatly increased with the coming of the refugees. These newcomers,
New Britain herald., 1930-04-26

many of whom were settled in Mace- donia, knew all about raising tobac- co, so their efforts have made Kav- ala a famous tobacco port. Refugees have also introduced the silk-rais- ing industry, as well as rug weaving and cigarette-making.
 Cotton of Boeotia, dried fruits from the Peleponnesus, wines of At tica, honey from Hymettus. wheat from newly drained swamps, are products of the nation. Some author ities, however, call Greek wine a mistake instead of a product. Beside a glass of Greek resin wine, they de- clare, the hemlock cup that Socrates drank, was a delicious beverage. No one seems to know why or when the Creeks began putting resin in their otherwise excellent wine.'

 Mrs. George Atwell, Jr., is among the fashionable women who are sponsoring the Grecian mode. She appeared at a recent dinner in gown of sheer white chiffon, high of waist and designed with numer- ous flowing panels falling from the shoulder. With the frock she wore a ruby necklace, which has belong ed to her mother, Princess Hohen- lche- -Schillingsfurst, for many years.
