Will Be Returned to Power-Frencil Take Gloomy View of Situation. :! Athens, Nov. 4, via London, Nov. D, $40 a m.-King Constantine has sum- moned leaders of all parties to confer on the situation resulting from the overthrow of the Zaimis cabinet, and it is expected the ministerial crlsls will end within twenty-four hours.
 VenizeIos Scores Government.
 Athens, Nov 4, via London, Nov. 5, 6:23 a. m.-One of, the statements or M. Venizelos in the chamber or depu- ties today which attracted especial attention was that Great Britain s offer to cede the Island of Cyprus to Greece was independent of the re- suit of the war. while other promises of concessions were conditional on the success of the allies. Greece, he said, was to acquire part of the Vilayet of Brusa and Bulgarian Thrace, while Bulgaria was to be shorn of the territory she gained as result of the Balkan war. All this, he declared, would be obtained by Greece at small cost, since the proposals of the entente power re- quired only the assistance of smaller units of the Greek fleet.
 Referring to the allegation that Serbia had failed to send against the BuIgarians 15O,OOO men in accord ance with the provisions of the treaty of alliance, M. Venizelos said she actually had 13O,000 troops opposed to the Bulgarians. If Greece had taken the field, the former premier asserted, her army today would have been within short distance of Sofia and. Serbia could have devoted her energies to holding back the Austro- German, whose numbers were less than had been reported.
 Venizelos Address.
 Paris, Nov. 5, 2:s5 p. m.-Portions of. the address of former Premier Venizelos of Greece to the chamb of deputies, just before the defeat or the Zaimis ministry are given as fol- lows by the Havas correspondent at Athens:
 '"The foreign policy of the govern ment does not have our confidence; moreover we consider it fatal for the country. In recent days we have felt more profoundly still the pain of sec ing our country menaced by our eternal enemy, which will turn on us after having crushed Serbia.
 King Not Responsible.
 M. Venizelos was interrupted by a deputy who asked whether he thought King Constantine desired the ruin of the country.
 "I would have preferred to- omit the name of the King in this dis
 
 "but since you ask this question I shall answer as I should. Under the constitutional regime the King can have no responsibility"
 Sharp Crisis In Greece.
 Berlin, Nov. 5, via London, noon The press of Berlin makes no at tempt to minimize the victory of for mer Premier Venizelos of Greece over the Zaimis ministry, and asserts it brings a sharp crisis in the affairs of Greece. An exception is the Vossis- che Zeitung, which declares the Greek cabinet crisis ''is of no signifi- canoe in connection with the foreign policy
 The Tageblatt devotes a column to this situation, although news of the defeat of Premier Zaimis was not received until last evening. It says new and grave political crisis has been created by the vote of the cham Der of deputies, and believes f1nan- cial difficulties or 'the chicanery prac- ticed by the British feet" may have been the cause.
 Better To Join Allies. "But the fact cannot be denied," it continues, that majority of the chamber has taken the standpoint that it is better to go through thick and thin with the entente, as it's true vassal and with it's financial support, according to the wishes of Venizelos, and to entrust the nations future to a daring adventure, rather than to assume the burden of temporary sac rifices and hardships which the coun- try's persistence in it's neutrality would entail" The Tageblatt points out, however, that the decision as to the nations future course is dependent not on se- cret treaties of the Opposition lead. but on the provisions of the constitu- tion, which give King Constantine free rein to appeal to the people. No Change Of Policy. The King can adjourn the chamber Continued On Fittaenth Page.)
