Washington, Dec. l2.-The text of
Greece's protest to the allies against
the blockade of Greek ports, estab-
lished last Friday by the Anglo
French fleet, was made public here
today by the Greek legation. At the
same time a copy was presented to
the state department for its informa-
ton.
Greece who is at peace with the
powers Of the entente" says the com
munication, "and has never ceased
giving them the most striking proofs
of her firm desire to maintain with
them friendly relations and mutual
confidence, sees with grief these very
same powers have taken recourse
against her to a measure when Is
contrary to the rules of international
law, and the principles of internaton-
al justice and freedom.

"The royal Hellenic government, eX-
pecting that the allied governments
will be good enough to inform them
on what ground such a measure mas
been taken and of the nature Of the
blockade they have decided upon, pro-
tests firmly and legitimately against
such measures taken against neutral
and friendly nation"
The legation also sent to the de-
partment a copy Of a dispatch from
the foreign office at Athens describing
the clash between the Greek troops
and Venizelists there on December /
and 2. 1t is said the losses of the
troops were thirteen killed and tWeh-
ty-four wounded, while the insurgents
who fired from behind barricades, had
only three killed and two wounded
Six civilians aiding the authorities
were killed and five other civilians

gents. according to the dispath'

"The repressive measures taken by
the government were the least stern
possible" it adds, The troops had a
very hard time in restraining the
FRENZY of the indignant throng and
only three or four cases of ill-treat-
ment by the mob have been ported
No matter where else, an insurrecuon
of the same kind and under similar
circumstances. would have provoked a
brutal repression. This was not the
case in Athens. No act of plundering
was reported.

strong effort to have the United States
agree to deportation of all aliens con-
nected with revolutionary juntas in
order that the Carranza government
might deal with them Such a step,
he said, would put an end to any dan
ger Of either invasions of Mexico from

the Carranza government to place
troops now on garrison duty on the

conclusion today of the federal trade
commission hearing into prices to
meet a committee from the National
Newspaper Publishers association TO
work out for the committees ap-
proval a plan for an equal distrlbu-

Chairman Hurley, of the commits
sion, asked the publishers, manutae-

meetings Friday to frame their plans
and appoint committees to meet with
the commission Saturday.
The manufacturers proposal came
as an unexpected development when
the trade commission called on them
to present their case. Newspaper
owners had told of wide differences
IN paper prices in various parts of the
country and of the inability of many
small publishers to obtain paper at
any price.
