Greek Cabinet Dispute
Ends in Declaration e.
fective Next Week

ATHENS, March 10.-(UP)-
Premier Panayoti Tsaldaris today
ended a cabinet dispute by an
nouncing that Samuel insult, Chi
cago utilities magnate must leave
Greece next week. Just previously
Foreign Minister James Maximos
had advised the American lega-
ton that insult will be expelled
because physicians in new ex-
animation found his condition
good enough to permit him to
travel.
1t had previously appeared that
insult might be permitted to re-
main in Greece indefinitely.
John Rails, minister of in
terror, favored permitting him to
remain without restrictions. His
decision was believed influenced
by insults poor health.
Foreign Minister James Maxi
mos however, opposed Rallis's
suggestion, and Premier Pana-
yoti Tsaldaris was expected to de.
eide this split within his cabinet.
Maximos' opposition apparently
was based on reaction in Wash
ington, where officials were re-
ported irritated because efforts to
extradite insult from Greece twice
failed.

ed in America on charges of
fraud.

LIQUOR IMPORT
BAN IS LIFTED
Administration Step Taken
to Reduce Bootlegging,
Racketeering
Bv c. c. NICOLET
IL Prs,s Staff CORRESPONDENT

lJnlIeO SAoAA
WASHINGTON, Mar. 10. (UP)
The liquor problem refuses to
solve itself, in spite of repeal of
the eighteenth amendment, so the
administration took another step
Yesterday to reduce bootlegging
and liquor racketeering.
The White House announced
that all quota restrictions on Ii
auor importation would be lifted
for temporary period in order to
improve the supply and lower the
price. The tariff of SIS a gallon
is not affected by the program.
New distilleries, especially in
Kentucky and Tennessee, will be
granted permits as an additional
more to improve the liquor stu
alton.
High prices of good liquor and
poor quality of the liquor within
reach of the OIL binary citizen are
creating a serious situation, the
administration is understood to
feel. The limited supply gives the
interests which control that sup
ply too great voice in distribu,
ton.
New domestic distillery permits
will make available 44,000,OOC
additional gallons of liquor annu,
ally. No estimate of additional
imports was available, but the
lifting of re strictions will bring
millions of dollars worth of drinks
into this country. This will ere;
ate a conf table credit abroad
with which foreign purchases Foi
! American goods can be financed.

 "Our federation Is behind

ordinary recovery purposes, for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1885, amount to $3,96o,79S,7O0."
 "The estimates of receipts for the next fiscal year (ending June 30, 1885 exclusive of foreign debt payments, of increased liquor taxes and of increased revenue flowing from amendments to the existing revenue law, amount to $3,974,- 665,479.
 "Therefore, exclusive of debt re- tirement, these budget estimates for the next fiscal year show a small surplus of $13,S66,779. But it must be borne in mind that this surplus does not include any addi- tlonal expenditures for extraordi- nary recovery purposes.
 Tt is clear that the necessity for relief and recovery will still be with us during sthe year 1934-35. Addi- tional relief funds will be neces- sary. Further needs of the coun- try prohibit the abrupt termination of the recovery program.
