LONDON, February 2.
The Belgrade correspondent of the "Daily Telegraph" states that according to reports from Athens there are differences of opinion between the King and the Prime Minister, General Metaxas. It is stated that the King does not approve of the increase in the severity of the dictatorship and of the recent arrests, including' that of the Royalist leader, M. Theotokis, on the unproved suggestion that he and others were concerned in a plot against the life of General-Metaxas. The King also considers that the severity of the censorship on the home, and foreign Press increases the discontent of the Greek people,;and unnecessarily alarms foreign countries concerning the state of Greece.
