LONDON, Nov. 22.-Prcmicr LcygueE
If France will come to London Sunday
.or conference with Lloyd George.
Ue will be preceded Thursday by Phil
;npe Berthelot, political expert Of the
French Foreign Office, and Marshal
rseh. In these conferences the whole
suglo-French policy Will be discussed,
bot it is said that the primary object
o. the meetings is to discuss the Near
East question, and particularly the at
,;tvde Of the Allies toward Greece.
This will be Leygues's first official
meeting with the British Premier, AMI
both governments are aligning their
policies preparatory to a general sur
vey. France is understood still to be
strongly opposed to the restoration Of
former King Constantine to the Greek
throne. Leygues will seek to reach u
definite understanding with Lloyd
George fixing the AngloFrench atti
tudc toward the restoration. France
IS said to be disposed to favor the ac-
cession of Crown Prince George, and
leygues may urge this alternative.
Reparation To Be Discussed
France also wants TO consider a pos
sibic revision Of the treaty with Tur-
key signed at Sevres. However, the
Near East questions will serve only to
introduce the discuss ons between the
TWO Premers. Their attention will
pass to the subject of reparations, and,
as the Reparation Commission has
made much progress. it is said that not
only the amount Germany must pay,
but also the time and mode of pay
ment, may be established at these con-
ferences.
There are rumors from Greece that
the former Kaiser is going to Greece, at
the invitation of his sister, ex-Queen
Sophia, and is to live on the island of
Corfu, of the west coast, but London
is not disposed to worry about these
reports.
the plebscite set for next Sunday,
which was to lave decided whether
Constantine should return to the
throne, has been postponed, but no Off
cal information on this subject has
been received here.
PARIS. Nov. 22-The French govern
ment Will not oppose by physical force
the return Of former King Constantine
10 the Greek throne, which the Foreign
Gfice now regards as inevitable, The
Associated Press was informed to-day.
Financial Iltimatum Sought
The policy which Premier Leygues
viii advocate at his meeting with Lloyd
George will be that a joint note be sent
% the Greek people pointing out very
stroNgy the consequence of Constan-
lines restoration, prominent among
eehici would be withdrawal of all finan-
'tal and economic support of Greece.
