ALLIED WARNING ID GREECE BEING
 CONSIDERED NOW Will Point Out Impossibility of France and Britain Ac-
 cepting Return of the,
 Former King
By Associated Press

Paris, November 22.-An active ex-
 change of views between London and
 Paris on the subject of Greece is in
 progress. M. Leygues, the French pre-
 mier, in long dispatch this morning set forth the French viewpoint for the
 second time.
 It is understood that the premier in-
 sisted upon the necessity of the two gov
 ernments making declaration before
 the Greek Parliament meets, so that 1t
 may know in advance the consequences if it votes to proceed with plebiscite
 On the question of former King Constan-
 tines return.
 The warning may take the form of a
 statement either in the French or Brit ton to the Greek premier, George Rhal- lis.
 According to the present understand ing, this statement would point out in uncompromising terms the absolute im-
 possibility of Great Britain and France accepting the return to power of for
 mer King Constantine, giving reasons by virtue of the treaties of July 6, 1Sa7; February 3, 1S30 May 6, 1882: July IT. 1896, and March g, 1864, which France and Great Britain instituted with Rus sia as the protecting powers of Greece
 and guarantors of her independence anu constitution. It would then enumerata occasions where Constantine had violated Greece's independence and constitution. France and Great Britain will not forcibly oppose Constantine's return
 They have no intention of blockading the coast of Greece or obliging the former king to return by airplane but will make the Greek people aware of the numerous political, economical and financial conse- ouences that hostile attitude would involve.
 In word. France and Great Britain Twill have done all in their power to avoid being confronted with an accom-
 plished fact if the two foreign offices
 reach an agreement to make joint dec laration before the Greek Parliament 1 meets The conversations which will take place few days later in London between the two premiers will bear on the decision which events might require in regard to the Near East question as a whole,

Pesquera, confi- dential agent of the southern republic with headquarters in Washington, ex- ceeded bis authority in issuing instruc- tions to consuls along the border to re- fuse to wise Senator Falls passport to Mexico.
 Senator Fall according to Colonel Chapa, had been delegated by President Elect Harding to deliver a special com municaton to General Obregon in Mex ico City. He was to have been accom- panied by Colonel Chapa and Capt. w. M. Hanson, the latter formerly a Texas Ranger captain, and who recently as- sisted Senator Fall in conducting an in- vestigation of Mexican affairs. The party was to enter Mexico at Juarez, where special train of the Mexican government was to carry them to Mexico City.
