Greece Ready to Join Allies When Advantage Clear Says King Constantine
King Constantine told the Athens AP correspondent on September 1 that Greece would join the Allies only if a definite advantage justified the risk and cost. He rejected the notion of binding pledges to refrain from war and warned of the fate of Greeks in Asia Minor and Thrace should hostilities arise with Turkey. He noted Bulgaria and Roumania’s actions would alter Greece’s position and stressed the need to weigh new elements before changing policy. The interview was given as the king, ill with fever, lay in a dim room with doctors attending.
