eminent. through Premier Venizelos,
has forwarded a communication to
President Wilson, requesting to
know if the United States has
signed the Bulgarian treaty If the
treaty has not yet been signed, it
IS tie intention of the Greeks 10
obtain a change in the territorial
adjustment so as to secure Western
Thrace.
There is strong Greek minority
in the Thracian hinterland and the
Greeks regard themselves as the
rightful heirs to the territory claim
ed by them and which they hope
yet to obtain from the BulgarianS,
notwithstanding the fact that these
questions have been disposed of by
the peace conference.
1t is considered possible that the
Greeks will make an attempt 10 take
forcible possession of the territory
if the peacemakerS rule against
them.
