Communist Prestige Increased By

Greek Elections

By Charles Ridley

Athens, Feb. 23. Pro-Western Premier Constantin Karamanlis said today that despite his narrow election victory last Sunday, the Communists "undoubtedly increased their political power, prestige and influence” in Greek affairs.

However, the six-foot, dynamic Premier said, he still hopes to have his National Radical Union Party coalition rule alone for the next four years. In an exclusive interview with į (The Ministry of the Interior the United Press in his Parlia-announced yesterday that the ment building office, Mr Kara Karamanlis majority had been manlis spoke freely his views on raised to 161 sonts to 189 for Communism and the future of his opponents.) his government.
