ments Made With Allies

Washington. Nov. 4.--The over.
throw of the Zaimis cabinet in Greece
by former Premier Nenizelos and hia
supporters was generally regarded
here today as an event foreshadow-
ing the eventual entrance OF Greece
into the war on the Sue of the quad
ripple alliance.
That 1t will be difficult for tho
King of Greece to disregard further
the majority in favor of the Venizelos
policy OF aiding Serbia is the opinion
here. 1t is admitted. however, there
is a possibility that ;oe King will run
the risk Of popular disa pproval and
even OF revolution and try to keep
Greece in her attitude of neutrality
in the Balkans.
The general opinion. however, is
that the Venezelos faction Is familiar
with their ground and did not act
until they felt sure that their move
against the Za.niis government wou,s.
be successful in all respects.
1t Is even suggested that the King
and his former premier may have had
an understanding. and that the OVER
throw Of the Zaimis cabinet was
merely delayed until the French and
British had assembled "A large fore0
in the Balkans. From recent reports

is only a part of the reported activi-

the allies on the battlefield.
The financing of the various con-
spiracies laid to the Germans and the
executive head OF the various actiyi-
ties are the big phases Of the inquiry

1t Is regarded as likely that before the
grand jury finishes Its inquiry wit
