POLITICS IN GREECE
VIEWS OF M. VENIZELOS FRESH PLEBISCITE SOUGHT ATTACK UPON ROYALISTS By Telegraph—Press Assn. —Copyright. Received June 1, 11.30 p.m. Athens, May 31. M. Venizelos has created a sensation by an article in which he urges the Republican leaders to insist on the Coalition Government holding a plebiscite without delay for the purpose of confirming the new constitution. He argues that this will end the intrigues of the Royalists who, in spite of the previous pronouncement of the people, continue to regard the Republican regime as illegally established, and maintain a dangerous agitation aiming at the restoration of the monarchy by force. The Cabinet, at a special meeting, decided not to adopt the proposal, but the situation, says the Daily Express, may be complicated by the intervention of the military. Meanwhile the Government is concentrating known loyal troops at Salonika and Athens.
