Protection of Greeks His Mission

(By Associated Press)
PARIS, June 12. - Senator Jonnart, who has just arrived in Athens, represents not only France but England amd Russia as high commissioner of powers protecting Greece. He has plenary authority to deal with the situation.

The principal questions Senator Jonnart will have to settle are whether the neutral zone between the Venezelist forces and the Royal Greek troops shall be retained without modification, and how to prevent the crops of Thessaly from being monopolized by King Constantine, to the detriment of the dissident Greeks.

Senator Jonnart was Minister of Public Works in the Casimir-Perier cabinet in 1903, Minister of Foreign Affairs in the cabinet of 1913, and the Governor-General of Algeria from 1900 to 1911.
