CABINET
RESIONS
Athens, Nov.
King George tonight accepted the resignation of Premier
! Sophocles Venizelos. shaky coalition government following investigations into alleged political graft at the port of Piracus.
The Palace announcement said only that the resignation had been accepted but inform- ed quarters believed that the graft charge proved the fast straw in the series of misfor- tunes which had faced the Venizelos regime since it took power in the middle of Septem- ber.
It was Greece's seventh political crisis of the year.
The graft charges centred on an alleged shortage of about $6,000,000 from Piraeus ini the last year.
Other factors which Coα tributed to the fall of the Venizelos government were its inherent political stability and the fact that it was in power when the United States re- cently slashed Marshall aid to Creecs by more than a fourth of the annual allocation.---- United Press.

"The editorial said, "For many Years in the past, Imperialist nations of the West. have been using all manner of political intrigues to sow dissension be- tween our Tibetan brother and people of the other nationalities of China.
"Since the reactionary fluence of American Imperialists and the Chiang Kai-shek bandit gang were kicked out of mainland, our Tibetan countrymen have been longing for liberation.

"It was originally the hope of the Central People's Govern- ment that the local authorities of Tibet would take action to bring about an early and peace- ful settlement of the problem, in order to fulfil the hopes of the Chinese people. However, the Imperialists, apart from
of sending a large number special service agents to engage irt sabotage, have been using every method to prevent the Tibetan delegation from "coming to China to negotiate."

The editorial accused "Ameri- can and British Imperialists". of having made energetic ef- forts to maintain their contro' of Tibet, "so that it may b used as a continental base for an invasion of new China.
