Chicago's Greek community
this week issued protest to
Gov. Dwight Green and Mayor
Edward ]. Kelly and urged beth
officials not to be '.misled into
lending their names" to a dinner
for Gen. Alexander Papagos on
August 4, at the Stevens Hotel.
In a letter to both Green and
Kelly, the Chicago Chapter of
the Greek-American Council
stated that it is an "affrOnt to
American hospitality to COM
memorate the inception of a
fascist dictatorship when the
plebiscite for the return of the
unsavory king is only rs days
away"
The letter was signed by DR..

Greeks hit fetinq Of fascist side here

scribed the political situation
within Greece as follows:
when Greece was liberated in
October, 1914, the British sent
General Scobie to Greece for no
other reason than to see that the
National L i b t n Front
(EAM),. which played the major
role in the liberation, would ne
crushed.
"At that time 80 percent of the
people were with Fam.
"In December 1914, the rem
nants of the Greek fascists,
which had collaborated with the
German occupation authorities.
were armed by the British and
precipitated the massacre of
Athens.
IN the civil war that enSued,
the British army and navy crush
ed the people of Athens by
bombarding them with 1000
shells a day. An agreement was
made in Feb. 1915, which the
British agreed to enforce. This
would have provided the basis
for future stability.
Instead several unstable gov
ernments followed, each hoisted
by the British, which system
matically prosecuted the men,
bers of the resistance movement.
Finally, in order to give SEM
blance of legality to the occupa-
ton of Greece, British Foreign
Secretary Ernest Bevin forced an
election in March, 1916.
"All leftist parties abstained
from the election. The royal
lists, having come to power I'M
challenged, proceeded to move
up the date of the plebiscite ON
the monarchy from 1913 to
Sept. 1916.
when General Papagos, who
was chief of staff of the Greek
army, and who ordered the
Greeks to retreat after they have
driven Mussolini's legion across
the Balkans, speaks of putting
leftist elements in their place,
we know just what kind of place
he means = rocky islands, a Jail
or the grave"

 Sued Southbury

A settlement out of court has been made in the 5000 civil action of Ralph Devino, owner of the Wa terbury Mason Supply and Lumber Company, who claimed his property in Southbury was sold by the tax collector because of delinquent tax debt of 88 cents.
 The Waterbury man had brought the suit against the Town of South bury, Tax Collector Albert Lock- wood, Kenneth Delkescamp of Wa terbury and Edward Simmonds of Southbury. Delkescamp was listed as the purchaser, and the com- plaint said Delkescamp later con- veyed a one-half interest to Sim monds.
 Devino claimed he did not know of the tax debt, and did not learn that the tax collector had executed tax collectors deed to Delkescamp Jan. 15, 1943, until Dec. II, 1924.
 The suit was withdrawn yesterday from the Superior Court docket.

Grady walked into police head quarters with the certified copy of the action of the Board of Public Safety, appointing him to the department. George M. Beach was the superintendent. George himself had not been office any too long, coming in by way of the political door that opened at the same time later for Joe Mclean : through an act of the Republican bound General Assembly, only to be set aside a few years later by a flaw which permitted of his exit, and the appearance of an- other outsider, just as George Beach was when he was named.
 Tom Grady was tall, filled out perfect, and bore the training of a military man, from his connec- tion with the National Guard. Waterbury born, of course, he got a good schooling that meant so much for him in the after world. His age was "A when he stepped before Supt. Beach in the latter part of 1906.
 Say, young fellow" observed George M., you're just the kind of person I like to see enter the Police Department. There isn't much chance for advancement, as I see it, but I'll tell you one thing, you look the part, and I am sure you will make good cop"
 Predictions Fulfilled
 And George M. was right; Tom Grady has been a good cop. He has been more than that; he's been good citizen. The Gradys are and always have been fine people; so were the DelaneyS of old Wall Street, Out East. Mrs. Grady, Toms mother, was 8 Delaney. They were all brought up Democrats; Mayor Thoms wouldn't let him in the depart ment unless he were a Democrat.
 Once upon a time, there was 8 great old governor of New York named David B. Hill. He was prominent in Democratic politics for years. In the days of William Jennings Bryan, when so many old line Democrats turned from the party, Gov. Hills pat reply to query on the stand was, T am a Democrat"
 Mayor Thoms copied this slo gan, and used it during his many years of leadership.
 Once he said to his commis- sioners: T get a number of Re- publican votes by reason of cer- tain connec ctionS, but that doesn't mean Republicans are to get any plums from this administration; I could use the familiar saying My administration but after all it is the peoples administration; it doesn't belong to me or to any of my successors"
 Law Now Different
 Tom Grady did duty with the illuStrious Maurice Noonan, anc also Maurice Healey, sergeant but moved up eventually, and re- tired as captain. But the law ir effect today denies this same pro- cedure to every man in either the police or fire departments.
 Long life and good health tc Tom Grady, a cop of other days

By THE OUT EASTER

Not until the other day were we aware that Thomas Grady of the Washington Hill territory had left the Waterbury Police Depart ment. We were surprised, in that we had never read of any citations or acts of recognition on the part of the city toward him when he left the service. But this appears to be the trend in these days; we have yet to learn of any reso- lution or note on record of Chief Cavanaugh's long years in the Fire Department. Some day, we think, a governing board will turn back the pages, and have the proper record noted. It is bound to come in time, so that posterity will know the real record of the chief and the others who left with him.
