Athens, Nov. 28. (Associated Press.)
The British minister, F.'P. Lindley,
has notified the Greek government
that Great Britain has broken off re.

C. H. Bentinck, British member of

Athens, Nov. 28. (Associated Press.)
The six former cabinet officers and
army officials convicted of . high trea.
son in connection with the Greek mili
tary disaster in Asia Minor were ex
ecuted today.
A statement issued Jby the court
martial which condemned to death
the former ministers, giving the rea
sons for imposing the sentences of
death, says in effect that the defend,
ants 'knowingly concealed from the
people the danger involved in King
Congtantine's return to the throne
and that, although Greece was break
ing jtway from her alliances, they did
their utmost to consolidate Constan
tino's throne in order to enjoy office
under him.
Two others were sentenced to penal
servitude for life, fines were inflicted
on others, the military defendants al.
so being sentenced to degradation.
