APPEALS
of
FOR UNITY
Athens, Aug. 31. Within, 48 hours of assuming office as the now Greek Premier, Dr Tsaldaris today Constantin made an appeal for an All- end National Government to the country's troubles.
In a newspaper pricle, he claimed that Greece would rather give the Inat dron of her blood to defend the territorial Integrity and independ- ence of the country than yield to guerilla demands.
"We shall face developments firmly and enolly," he said. "The Govern- ment which I head embodies this declston, and has no other nim, than to carry it out through national unity and collaboration of all.
"This Government is ready to yield its place to an All-National Govern- ment able to assume this sacred mis- sion and to represent the mandate of All-Greece."
