Mundt said Monroney aeemed to think the Republicans ought to fol low what ha called the Democrat' "geatapo concept."

Even so II took several weeks to receive an exit permit. Once here Chang said he has abandoned his home and business and wants no more of communism. He said his nine workers discov ered that by allying themselves with a district unit of Ihe Commu nist party, they could get control of Chang's drug business after a year. The owner said mat wnne his slore was making money, he was permitted to take only mini mum wages, although he was forced to continue as operator and manager and take all responsibil ity. He said the profits did not go to the workers. They went to the Communist party either through forced donations, lines or taxes.

S. Ambassador John peuriloy'a suggestion that a new administration might help the na tion. The Greek Parliament gave Plastlras a slim but adequate 127 116 vote of confidence last night at the height of a heated contro versy over the American envoy's Informal remark. Peurlfoy suggested Wednesday in a talk to Greek newsmen that new national elections might be beneficial. He aald a new adminis tration would be in a better position to deal with the nation's economic problems. Elllnlkl Imera. an organ of Dep uty Premier Sophocles Venizelos' Liberal party, demanded In a front page editorial yesterday that Peurlfoy be recalled for Interfer ing In Greek political affairs. Other newspapers supporting the govern ment also have criticized the re mark. The ambassador, now visiting the Greek island of Rhodes, was un available for comment out Wash ington official said he had the State Department'a backing. Last night's government victory resulted from an unbroken alliance between Plastlras' National Pro gressive Union and Venizelos' Lib erals. Together they hold 129 par liamentary aeat. Any split between the two groups would have opened the way for the opposition Greek Rally, headed by Field Marshal Alexander Papagos. The Rally, which has demanded new elections, controls 115 seat the largest single bloc In Parlia ment. Eight Communlst-ltne members of the single-house legislature con demned American "Interference in Greek affairs" and walked out before the vote. Venizelos objected to the charge, saying, "We have no right in the Oreek Parliament to make such remarks about foreign representa tives." Last spring Peurlfoy was s tar get for other angry charges of meddling In Greek internal affairs when he took a stand against the multi-party type of government in the country. He said then a more simple "majority" system of elec tions should be substituted for the "proportional", system. At that time the ambassador Justified his remarks by saying he was interested In getting better use from American economic and military aid. Such aid now totals 3'i billion dollars.
