jOmahan Accuses
Consular Agent
of Taking Bribe
Complaint Sent to Secretary
of State Alleges MUtreat.
inent at Consulate in
Greece.
Under request from tli Pouglat
county pott of the American 1 .eg ion,
Congressman Albert W. Jefferi
Monday afternoon, dipatehed to the
office of Secretary of State HuRhrt
in WaihitiRton a complaint against
the consular ervice aigned and
sworn to by Taut Kaiakas, member
of Douglai county pot.
Kazakas alleges, in hit complaint,
that be wai forced into paying a
bribe to consular employes at
Patrasj, Greece, and got no return
from such payment.
Kazakas alleges he tailed (or Greece
October IS, 1921, to bring home his
parents to his adopted country, and
rried in Patrass, Greece, October
JO. 1921.
Goes to Consulate.
When he left the ship he went im
' mediately to the consulate, he stated,
to get his passports vised and there
he was told by a clerk that he woul i
be drafted into the. Greek armv and
that the consular office could do
nothing for him.
He went to Philiatra, he charged,
and a week later returned to embark
aboard a ship for the United States,
but read in the newspapers where
immigration . to America had been
stopped.
He went to the consular office,
again, he said, to get his passport
vised and there a Mr. Novario, as
sistant, told bim he could not see
the consul and refused to stamp his
passports, he alleged.
But the assistant told him he'knew
a way he could smuggle him out of
Greece for $300, Kazakas charged,
and told him he would have to leave
the money with the assistant's wife.
Investigation to Follow.
Kazakas said he had only 3,000
rtracmas, or $240, and he deposited
this, but when" he was not booked for
passage 12 days later, he asked for
the return of the money and it was
reftised.
Finally however, through the aid
of Saul D. Winkler, American com
mercial agent, he alleges, he was
smuggled aboard a ship for Con
stantinople. He had borrowed
enough money from his mother to
pay his passage home, he charged,
and had to return to America with
out his parents. .
Congressman Jefferis says the
charge of .bribery in the consular
service is a serious affair and that
an investigation undoubtedly will rc-
'sult from. .Kazakas" complaint.
