Greece Restores Navy Control Amid Allied Rearmament
The Greek flag again flies over the navy as control shifts to Greek officers and crews. The Allied conference in Paris and Saloniki operations prompted the move to hand ships to Greek commanders. The Lemnos and Kilkish remain at the arsenal, some parts rendered inoperative. The American legation faced protests from Greek partisans but refused intervention. A rearmed Greek squadron may play a role against Central Powers submarines in the eastern Mediterranean and Aegean as patrols intensify.

Death Sentence Looms for Deaf Mutes in Connecticut
In New Haven on September 29, facing execution at Wethersfield State Prison is likely the first such sentence for two deaf mutes in U S history. Joseph Castelli and Frank Veteri were condemned for the murder of Castelli’s wife on April 23, 1915, after Castelli plotted to kill her and Veteri aided him. They fled to New York then were captured and brought back for trial. The State pardon board may still intervene to halt the death penalty.
