Eden, Sec'y of State Acheson and other influential American
political, military and labor leaders. Both the State Dept.

CIA's senior representative in Athens and Commander Whiney,
the British SIS representative, have presented a compromise
proposal to Greek General Dobas on the question of a com-
munications base for stay-behind operations in Greece.
Control of the base, which is a matter for future settle-
ment, was. side-stepped in view of the -conflicting positions
taken by the British and Greeks on this. subject. The
wording of the proposal is as nearly acceptable to the
Greeks as it can be made.
