Greeks Talk Harmony Effort
in Event of DeclinatiOn
From VeniZelOS

Athens, Dec. 24.-In the event that
former Premier Venizelos returns "A
negative reply to the request Of the
council of ministers that he return
to Greece the Republicans suggest
that coalition government be form
ed to be composed of the four lead
ing parties, the Republicans, the Lii
berals, the Republican Liberals and
the refugees group headed by DR..
Doxiades, minister of public relief.
George Roussos, former Greek
minister at Washington, and now
chief of the Republican Liberals, is
now one of the several political lead
exs favoring the coalition. However,
many Of the leading Liberals oppose
such a step preferring to let the
Republicans have chance at the diff

The feeling now is that the Republi-
cans are sure to be quickly discredit-
ed and the people will be obliged to
call the Liberals to power.
The weekend was devoted to poll
tical conferences at which political
party chieftains were endeavoring to
determine their future line of action.
Mr.. Roussos, returning from Egypt,
conferred with NJ. Panastasion, who
