Washington, Oct. 6.-This statement
to the press of the United States, con-
trasting the landing of allied troops
in Greece with Germany's action tow
ard Belgium, was cabled to the Austro-
Hungarian Embassy here to-day by the
Foreign Minister at Vienna:
II should like to point out to the

Belgium and the actual violation OF
the neutrality OF Greece bv the French
and English. who, without asking
Greece. landed at Salonica their troops,
notwithstanding having at their dis
posal other ways Of bringing help to
Serbia. Perhaps the world will see
how little worth there is to the small

By Cable 10 Tia Trfbuns

London, Oct. 6.-King Constantine is
the man of the hour in the Balkans,
and in his hands. for the time being,
since the dismissal Of Premier Veni-
zelos, rests the balance Of power. Ex-
cept that the King to-day conferred
with former Premiers Rhallis and
Zaimis in an effort TO form a new
Cabinet, there have been few develop
ments in the situation.
coalition government, under the
Premiership Of VI. Zaimis, is said TO
have been decided upon at the royal
conference, according to a Reuter- dis
patch from Athens. VI. Venizelos, it
is understood. will not be a member
Of the new ministry. The constitution
Of the Cabinet, the dispatch adds, is
expected to be completed tonight.
No comment was made at the For
eign Office to-day regarding the situa-
tion in Greece, while the Greek Min
ister also firmly refused TO make any
statement. General feeling, however,
has somewhat recovered from the de-
preston of last night, and in many
quarters the belief is that a few days
will see Nenizclos once more in power.
The possibility that Greece may at
tempt to remain neutral. fearing 70
stake her future upon the success OF
either party, despite the alliance with
Serbia, is recognized, although il is
considered small. Sentiment in favor
OF the Entente Powers is so strong.
however, that it is believed the King
will eventually have TO bow TO il, as
he has before.
French reports declare that the over
throw OF the Venlzelos Ministry will
have no effect on the landing OF troops
at Sslonica, where they were enthu.
siss,ically received. Now that Greek
support against Bulgaria cannot be
counted upon. it is expected that heavy
reinforcements will at once be sent.
'H' 9tiiVHoHfeo ol the SITUATION
however, is fully appreciated, and tn,
British press emphasizes the tremen
deus military efforts that will now b,
needed to check the German Gdvanc,
toward junction with the Turks anc
bulgsrs. The newspapers point ou
that developments tend 70 confirm the
statements Of the German press thai
the Kaiser has guaranteed to Bulgaria
both Greek and Rumsnisn neutrality.
Balkans Now Wars Centre.
Thus, IN the opinion of many observ-
ers. the crucial field OF the war has
shifted from the French and Russian
fronts TO the Balkan peninsula. where
German success will mean the reali-
zation Of Emperor Williams ambitions
for expansion toward India and Asis.
The greatest excitement prevailed in
Athens when the Premier's resignation
became known, according TO the Reuter-
correspondent. Great crowds gathered
in the streets and marched 20 the home
Of N. Venizelos, singing the Greek ma
