Greece
EX-PREMIER INTERVIEWED. United Press Association. Rome, March 17. Lt Corriere della Sera interviewed M, Venizelos, who said that twice since the outbreak of war the Triple Entente had asked Greece to send men to help Sorvia, hut the attitude of Bulgaria prevented it. When operations in the Dardanelles commenced, the Entente semi-officially inquired whether Greece was disposed to intervene. M. Venic/.los proposed to send fifty thousand troops in exchange for Greece obtaining the vilayet of Smyrna, but the Crown Council rejected the proposal, believing it to be impossible to defend Smyrna.
