4 MILITARY TRAINING ROW DELAY’ SENATE VOTE ON ARMY FUND Frazier Attempts to Cancel Ap- propriations for Martial Courses in Colleges Washington, March 18.—(?)—A sen- ate vote on the $61,000,000 war de-| partment appropriation bill Wednes- day awaited the close of heated de- bate over compulsory military train- ing in colleges. ‘The chamber rejected Tuesday an amendment by Senator Fletcher (Dem.-Fia,) to provide $12,000,000 to continue work on the Florida ship canal, which was started with WPA funds. An. amendment by Senator . Neely (Dem.-W. Va.) to furnish $8,000,000 for the Conchas dam in New Mexico, Sardis reservoir in Mississippi and the Bluestone reservoir in West. Virginia ‘was adopted. Senator Vandenberg (Rep.-Mich.) fought the canal. Final vote on the army measure then was delayed when Senator Fra- zier (Rep.-N.D.) began an effort to keep ROTC funds from colleges and schools which compel students to take military courses. He asserted students in some schools had been expelled for refusing to take the training. Senator Copeland (Dem.-N. Y.), op- posing Frazier’s move, declared there was a “well organized movement to make attacks on the citizen soldiers, the National Guard and the ROTC.” Factional Partisans Hold Political Fete Formal acceptance of the endorse- ment for governor, given him by one faction. of the Nonpartisan League, was made by William Langer at a ceremony here Tuesday night.

Yet in this hour of triumph he was beset by would-be assassins, repudi- ated at the Greek polls and driven into involuntary exile. Leader in Two Wars He then was 56, had been premier three times, had played a leading role in the revision of the Grek con- stitution, and conducted his country through the first and second Balkan wars and the world war. From exile he stated he had finished with national politics, though he acted for his coun- try at the 1923 Lausanne conference where the Greco-Turk peace was signed. But affairs in Greece were moving to a crisis before the gathering senti- ment for a republic. In response to an overwhelming invitation from all parties, the veteran statesman re- turned in January, 1924, though he made clear his stay was temporary and would last only until he could “put an end to civil war.” Sickness Halts His Career The liberal chiefs, however, refused to cooperate except under his leader- ship and Venizelos was persuaded to become premier. In March, the de- and a Hellenic republic proclaimed. Venizelos’ administration was short- lived. He suffered a heart attack while engaged in a heated legislative debate, four physicians gave the ver- dict that he must rest, and in June, 1924, he resigned. Succeeding years found him in va- rious parts of Europe, building him- self up physically. To occupy his mind he translated Thucydides into modern Greek and late in 1926 issued a mani- festo announcing his definite with- drawal from political life. Three times more, however, he re- turned to the premiership, He came back in July, 1928, because of a crisis between the royalists and the repub- licans, staying in office until May 21, 1932; took up the reins again in June, resigning in November to make way for a coalitiion government, and served again from January to March, 1933. Assassins Seek His Life Venizelos was born August 23, 1864, at Murniaes, Crete. Educated at Ca- nea, Syra, and Athens, where he took his degree in law in 1887, he returned to Canea to practice. Drawn into political life, he came into prominence in 1897 as one of the leaders in the Cretan uprising against Turkish rule and steadily increased his power and influence in the suc- ceeding decade, becoming premier for the first time in 1910. In the tempestuous career that fol- lowed, there were several murder plots against him and in 1920 he was seriously wounded by would-be assas- sins in Paris. The most recent at- tempt occurred in June, 1933, when. a party of gunmen fired on his auto- mobile and his wife was wounded. Venizelos was first married in 1891, his wife dying in 1895. They had two sons, Kyriakos and Sophocles. On Sept. 15, 1921, he married Miss Helena Schilizzi, heiress of a Greek family in England. This was within his post- war exile and following the wedding he and his bride toured North and South America. In the United States, because of his political status at home, Venizelos was pledged not to make any public addresses. One of his quasi-public appearances was as a platform guest at a rally of the Chi- copal church at which several Greek Orthodox dignitaries were present. Venizelos was introduced, but merely plause that greeted him. CONTINUED) 32 Deaths Counted And Property Loss In Millions Noted drowned in Winston-Salem. High winds unroofea buildings near the coast.

He also asked for CCC workers to start rehabilitation work as soon as it can get under way. A group of 36 state troopers arrived in this city of 70,000 population early Wednesday morning and other offi- cers were expected. A National Guard train was en route from Pittsburgh. The flood which at one time cov- 3 |ered the business district 16 feet deep (04 | Was receding rapidly but it left Johns- town without gas, electric power, wa- ter service or transportation.

Temperatures Fall Falling temperatures, below the freezing point, forecast days of misery for thousands before the city comes back to normal. The Conemaugh river swept over Johnstown in much the same manner Pct.|8S in 1889, when 2,235 persons lost their lives, but Chief Klink said as far as he could ascertain there was only one dead in the city. The only death reported by Klink was that of Russell Belisda, swept away on a bridge Tuesday. George Fullmer, Bell Telephone manager, reported his son-in-law was in a rescue boat which capsized with the loss of an unidentified boy and a woman, Officers were checking a report a woman drowned at Hooversville. Thousands Marooned Firemen and policemen worked in bogts throughout the night rescuing some of the thousands who found themselves cut off by the waters but thousands still remained in buildings, some of them withaut food since Tuesday. The famous “Flood City" of 1889 was totally paralyzed except for the few boats that could be commandeer- ed for service. All the main bridges will be impassable even after the wa- ters go down because of debris. The flood tore out the flooring of the big Franklin and Ferndale viaducts.

Ten or more feet of water still swirled through the thoroughfares, hampering all rescue work. Round Up Hundreds Klink and other officers rounded up about @ hundred children and found refuge in Lee hospital. The police chief estimated that at the rate the flood is receding it would not be out of the streets before latc Wednesday. At 7 a. m., it was 5 feet below the 16-foot level reached in some downtown sections. Fulmer, from his office in the tele- phone building where he has been marooned since Tuesday with 17 oth- ers, sald he thought the Conemaugh would be back in its banks by rtoon. Paul Ashcom, a newspaperman who surveyed the city on foot, described the. effect of the flood which sud- denly poured over a busy metropolis Tuesday afternoon: i “There is misery and suffering all around for we have no lights, heat or water service but so far as we can find there is no more than one dead in the city itself. The freezing weather is going to make it hard on the peo- ple but if the rise is halted we feel the worst is over. Two Dams Safe “The Wilmore dam up in the moun- tains is safe, the same is true of the big Quemahoning dam. Reports they broke during the flood were exagger- ated. “There are still many people down in the city where the buildings are flooded. How many, no one knows ‘There are many who are sleeping all night in their automobiles, unable to get home.” At the mining town of Rossiter tn adjoining Indiana county, a bursting dam swept away Russell Saye, 35- year-old miner, his wife and two children, f An unidentified man was found |dead at Tyrone. Edward Leizinger, merchant at Clearfield, was reported missing. BLAST RIPS HOUSE CROWDED WITH REFUGEES Pittsburgh, March 18.—()—An ex- Plosion which tore through a home crowded with flood refugees injured at least 30 persons Wednesday, some seriously. The brick house in suburban Law- renceville was literally ripped apart by the blast. The cause of the explo- sion was undetermined. Fire followed the blast. FLOOD AND FIRES TERRORIZE PITTSBURGH (Copyright, 1936, Associated Press) Pittsburgh, March 18.—(#)—The greatest flood of the century menaced Pittsburgh and its hundreds of neigh- boring communities in the wide area Wednesday with damage already run- ning into millions and 12 known dead. Department stores, theatres and other big business structures in Pitts- burgh were flooded with ten feet of water, marooning hundreds of work- ers and shoppers. An explosion in the Etna Nut and Bolt company plant in suburban Etna injured at least seven persons, and destroyed the faetory and 11 houses. There were fears some might have died after the blast. Many persons jumped into Union street, filled with water to a depth of six feet. Blazes in the Crucible Steel plant, the Waverly Oil works and the Pitts- burgh Steel Spring company called out scores of firemen. = Battle Fire in Hip’ Boots Explosion after explosion roared through the Lawrenceville district from the Waverly refinery, Firemen battled in hip-deep water to prevent the spread of flames. The ever-increasing waters of the Allegheny river rose to the unprece- dented stage of 42.6 feet in Pittsburgh. Flood stage is 25 feet. The greatest stage heretofore in Pittsburgh's his- tory was 41.1 feet in 1763. The “Golden Triangle,” containing some of the biggest and most valuable business structures in the city and for @ century the heart of trade in west- ern Pennsylvania was 50 per cent in- undated. The swollen Monongahela, Allegheny and Ohio spread their muddy cur- rents eight blocks inward and busi- ness was virtually suspended. Traye) by bus, train or automobile was al- most impossible. Hero Dies A real hero of the disaster died at Connellsville in the Fayette county coal fields. Harry Landymore, 28, was pulled from a telephone pole to which he had clung after rescuing 40 persons from the coal town of Dawson.
