The Greek crisis has clearly not been ended by the
appointment of M. Kalogeropoulos as Prime Minister. M. Kalogeropoulos has told the Athens correspondent of the Timm that " all his personal sympathies are with the Entente." Against these amiable words must be set the fact that the new Ministry is distinctly pro-German in composition. The Prime Minister himself is a Theotokist, in other words an anti-Venizelist. All that M. Kalogeropoulos promises is a " benevolent neutrality " towards the Allies, but (as though this phrase in view of past events could bear any dilu- tion) he goes on to say that Greek policy will be " regulated in accordance with events." King Constantine has told a corre- spondent that what weighs with him particularly is the thought of what would happen to the Greeks in Asia Minor if he went to war with Turkey.
