high taxes, designed for immedi-
ate collection, were clamped on
the group which profited during
the periods of economic crumb-
ling. A monthly tax on business
rents is numerically high.
Faced with the heavy tax, n1er :
chants must also increase their
activity and turnover, another
thing vitality needed to pump life
into the Greek economy. Mer7
chants who increase prices to
meet the tax face Jail.
Greece has made much less
progress toward political .stabil-
ity.
There are 33 political parties
in Greece but nobody knows
much about them except the
names of their self-styled leaders,
since political life has just been
revived for the first time since
1885. Until elections, planned for
this year, no one can know the
popular following of any parties.

worker at Pasco who could
get no rest because of "a

WHAT HAPPENED In EUROPE
GREECE RECUPERATINC
FROM BEATING WITH
CONTROLLED ECONOMY
{ ,sRy WILLIAM B. KING

- e2Hy WILLIAM d. KING
: 45fikfEsfeatures
sysnATHENS, Aug. 27.-Un-
der the leadership of hard
headed banker Greece is re-
cuperating from its beating
with a plan of controlled
economy which has shown
excellent results in its first
two months.
The United Nations Relief
and Rehabilitation Admins
tration deserves its share of
credit. but the central figure
in Greece's recovery is Kyri-
acos. Varvaressos, deputy
prime minister and minister
of supply. A large man with
Drowned features and snow
white hair, sitting behind his
desk as governor of the Bank
, of Greece he looks about like

Varvaressos' plan will rise
or fall on the governments
liability to collect mountain
GUS taxes levied on the afflu4
ent merchant class. There
are grdfnbfings' aplenty
against him. Some govern
ment colleagues call him an
economic dictator Pessimists
say his fixed prices can't be
enforced.
Situation Vicious
But this was the economic stu
alton Greece faced when Var
varessos joined the nonpolitical
Voulgaris cabinet, with the un-
Outstanding he would be given a
free hand with the recovery pro-
gram:
Though the occupation and lib
Grafton, merchants had amassed
money by maintaining specula-
lively high prices on available
goods while production on longer
existed in a war-strangled in
dustry Speculation in gold and
foreign Currency was rife.
Tire government, with no
sources of revenue, was forced
ito meet expenses. by issuing new
money. There was no control
over the distribution of any food
except that imported by UNRRA.
Prices rose unil only one class
could buy. Whose sections of the
population were forced onto re-
lief. Salaried people repeatedly
demanded high wages which
when granted only gave prices
another boost upward.
And so the wild initiation which
brought Greece to economic
chaos.
Program Executed
Varvaresso put into effect a
three-point program:
/. To provide the government
with an income from the eco
