Premier Of Greece
Passes On, Aged #8
ATHENS, </P) — Themistokles
Sophoulis, Premier of Greece,
died today. He was 88 years old.
Death occurred at his summer res
idence at 4:15 p.m. Although he
had been ill and was near death
last fall, his death at this time
was unexpected.
Sophoulis, a key figure in Greek
politics for a half century, had
been Prmeier since Sept. 7, 1947,
despite the turmoil of Greek poli
tics occasioned by the civil war
with the communist guerrillas in
the north.
He weathered the most recent
political storm only two months
ago, and this after suffering a se
vere heart attack which had him
bedridden for several months. His
reshuffled cabinet took over in
April after a scandal involving a
member of the previous govern
ment had caused the aged pre
mier to offer King Paul his resig
nation,
The venerable leader of the Lib-1
eral party had been an important
cog in the Truman doctrine, un
der which the aid of the United
States went to Greece in her civil
war and to Turkey, under the sha
dow of the Russian bear.
