136. For Secretary and Under Secretary. It would appear that although suggestion reported my 111, April 26, was made as a result of intimation from King Greek Government ultimately rejected it. It is also understood that that Government took great offence on learning of Turkish approach to Germans (my 117, April 30) of which it had not been informed in advance.
