Greece to welcome Venizelos back to shape politics
Athens reports the Council of Ministers orders ex Premier Venizelos to return to Greece with full initiative to lead the political scene. Col Plastiras, heading the Revolutionary Committee, met party chiefs to gauge strength ahead of the new assembly set for January 2. Liberals claim 224 deputies, Republicans 176 of 402 seats, but cross-pledges blur exact lines. Republicans fear a regime compromise while Liberals push dynastic restraint pending a plebiscite.
