TWO VOTES SEEM ENOUGH Greek Parliament Safe Until Spring By SAM MODIANO ATHENS (Reuters) -- The government of Greek Premiler Stephanos Stephanopoulos, with a margin of only two votes ina 300-seat House, seems likely to " gurvive until spring, observers here say. A spring election would not be surprising. When Stephanopoulos: two months ago patched together a majority to end a two-month- long government crisis, former premier George Papandreou pledged a "'relentless struggle" to bring the new government down. But Stephanopoulos has frus- trated Papandreou's demand for immediate elections, and has the votes to win his next key measure -- a switch to straight proportional represen- tation voting instead of the complex French - style system which in February, 1964, gave Papandreou 171 seats. To assemble his majority and end in September the crisis which followed Papandreou's resignation after a dispute with young King Constantine, Steph- anopoulos lured 45 dissidents from Papandreou's Union of the Centre party. They now are busy forming a '"'democrat- ically-ruled" centre party. The other supporters of Steph- anopoulos' cabinet are the 99 deputies of the National Radi- cal Union and eight Progres- sives. Papandreou's Centre party remnants are allied in opposition with the 22 legisla- tors of the United Democratic Left, labelled a front for the outlawed Communist party by the Greek police. CLASH WITH CHURCH? The biggest worry ahead for Stephanopoulos is a clash with the hierarchy of the Greek Or- thodox Church. Pending pas-| sage of a new law allowing | bishops to switch from one dio-| cese to another, the govern-| ment banned the election of new bishops. But the hierarchy elected 15 of them. andreou stands a chance of gaining new popularity and| strength by backing the metro- politans of the church, Stephanopoulos has already fulfilled hi> first vital promise --to restore law and order to Greece. One of the United Dem- ocratic Left's leaders recently disclosed that the party and other Papandreou backers had staged 3,000 separate street demonstrations during the riot- ous parliamentary crisis last summer, Now the police have strict or- ders to prevent any disturb- ances. Some recent demonstra- tors have been prosecuted, in- cluding those who shouted abuse at King Constantine and the royal family. During the July-to-September crisis such insults went unpun-| ished every day. | The government believes that| the switch to straight propor- tional representation -- ander! which each party wins the num-} ber of parliamentary seats pro-| portional to the number of votes) it receives--will help to cool po-| litical passions and prevent the) formation of a "'popular front") between Papandreou and the| United Democratic Left party.) Stephanopoulos' sup-} porters say this system would reflect the true political balance) of the 5,500,000 voters among Greece's 8,500,000 population. Stephanopoulos, 65, has faced) an array of critical problems. | First among them was the) chaotic state of Greece after the unprecedented 72 days of crisis last summer. The absence of a) strong government during that period led the country to the) verge of anarchy and bank- ruptey.
