GREEK GOVERNMENT
PERSONNEL UNCHANGED KING SEEKING COALITION (Rec. 7 p.m.) LONDON, Oct. 2. The King of the Hellenes to-day swore in the new Tsaldaris Government, which is exactly the same as the previous one, says Reuter's Athens correspondent. The King, acting on the advice of M. Tsaldaris, is believed to be shortly beginning consultations with the Opposition leaders with a view to paving the way to a broad coalition Cabinet. The secretary of E_A.M. said the E.A.M. did not see any danger of aggression against Greece from the Slav bloc. “ Our attitude remains the same —every inch of Greek soil is sacred to us,” he said. He described British troops in Greece as the main source of trouble. He condemned the activities of Right Wing armed bands. "Left Wing bands showed patience until it was "exhausted, after which they were forced to flee into the mountains in order to save their lives,” he said.
