has sentenced NJ. Balassopoulous, a
former Minister Of Ecclesiastical Affairs,
to one years Imprisonment, deprivation
of political rights during three years,
and to give the $4,000 he received as a

Of the investigation is rs follows: On
the overthrow of the Bulgaris Ministry,
the late opposition sought TO retaliate
on those who had ridden rough-shod
over the rights of their fellow Deputies.
The Public Prosecutor of the Court of
Appeals in Athens, a friend of the pres
ent First Minister, petitioned the House
TO inquire into the conduct of the Min
ister Of Justice and the Minister for
Ecclesiastical Affairs, with regard to the
appointment of four Archbishops, set
ting forth the grounds of his belief that
their practices had been corrupt. A
committee of five members was forth
with appointed to investigate the truth
of the allegations and as prosecutors in
the event of the defendants being COM
mitted for trial. Witnesses We're exam
