PARIS, Sept. (By The Asso-
ciated Press)-The 1nter-Allied
Council of Ambassadors in its note
to Greece, made public today, lays
down terms providing that satisfac-
ton be given for the assassination
of the Italian mission engaged
in delimitation of the Greek-Alba-
nian frontier near Janina on Au-
gust 2S.
The terms are very similar to
those in the Italian ultimatum, part
of which was rejected by the Greek
government leading to the Italian
occupation of the island of Corfu.
The council holds that an outrage
committed under the circumstances
attending the Staying of the Ital-
ians directly involves the respon-
sibility of the state in the territory
of which it took place"
Taking into consideration the
Greek governments declaration of
Willingness to accept and make all
reparation deemed equitable by the
ambassadors in the event its re-
sponsibility were demonstrated, The
council rHles that the outrage
was of an entirely political char
acter and oerpetrated upon persons
entrusted with an official mission
by the ambassadors council such
responsibility is greatly involved,
since the Greek government was
bound to insure the safety Of the
commissioners.
The ambassadors warn Greece
that it will be- held responsible for
the safety of the commission of in
qniry which is proceeding to the
scene of the murders, and that she
must give 1t all facilities and assist
ance in it's task and defray It's eX-
penses. The council has requested
the Albanian government, should the
commissions work necessitate its
entering Albanian territory, to take
similar measure of protection and
assistance.
The note asks that the Greek
deposit of 50,000.000 lire be made
with the Swiss National bank with
out delay"
The demands set forth in the am
bassadors note are:
First, formal regrets will be pre-
sented by the highest Greek military
authority to the representatives OF
the three allied powers in Athens.
Second, a funeral service will be
celebrated in honor of the slain ltai-
ian commissioners in the Catholic

sion, will steam into Piraeus Roads
the morning of the funeral service,
and the GrIek fleet shall salute the
Italian, British and French flags

shall be returned by the allied war
ships Immediately after the conclu-
sion of the funeral service. The
flags of the Greek fleet and the al
lied warships will fly at halfmast
throughout the ceremonies.
Fourth, military honors will be
rendered by a Greek military unit
with a flag at Preveza while the
bodies of the victims are embarked.

undertake to insure all possible
speed in the arrest and exemplary
punishment of the guilty parties.
Sixth, a special commission com
posd of French, British, Italian and

Greek Commissioner Backs beagus
GENEVA, Sept. S:-M. Politis ex-
planned that he was not informed as
to the text of the note prepared by
the ambassadors, but that he under
stood it was virtually an incorpora-
ton of the measures proposed before
the council of the league this week
by the Spanish ambassador to
Count Quinones De Leon.
Therefore, he added, the council
might well say that it had effectively
in solving the crisis.
"Under the circumstances" he
''the question of the COM
of the league to take up the
dispute becomes pure
ly academic because the conflict it
self will presumably have been
settled"
