Communist Backed Party Leads Greece Election Race
In Athens the Democratic Union, backed by Communist groups, led with 1,419,629 votes to 1,263,297 for Konstantinos Karamanlis’ pro-American party as 6,880 of 17,200 polling stations reported. The race could still produce a governing coalition or a military intervention to block a Communist rise. Women voted for the first time in Greece’s history, about 10 percent of the electorate, a potential turning point in the 300 seat parliament. Some sources warned of a possible coup to prevent the union from seizing power and altering NATO relations.

Marland pins flower fund on Myers role in gubernatorial race
Governor William C. Marland accused state Democratic chairman Howard Myers of controlling a flower fund that solicits employee donations. Myers denied recent contributions, saying no money has flowed in for months and that he would discontinue the fund if he becomes governor. Marland defended Road Commissioner Burl Sawyers amid criticism from rival candidate Robert H. Mollohan. The governor also explained why the Board of Public Works sought 250000 to buy a Cabell County farm for a mental hospital site, noting the money was not reallocated from other hospitals. He announced plans for more out of state trips to attract industry, urged a contingent fund for the Board of Public Works, and signaled appointments to West Virginia’s portion of a regional education compact after ratification.
