ATHENS QUIET
LABOUR FEDERATION PROTEST STRIKE TRANSPORT AS USUAL (Rec. 9 p.m.) ATHENS, June 18 Athens is quiet, and trams and buses are running as usual, in spite of the call by the Greek Confederation of Labour for a 24-hour general strike as a protest against the Government’s bill "for the restoration of law and order,” which was passed by 134 votes to 28 after an all night sitting. Anti-Communists are running the transport services. Other Right Wingers and navy personnel are manning other public services. Fifty men attacked a gendarmerie station near Kalambaka and killed nine officers. Another band seized four gendarmes near Trovasso.
