Show WILLIAMS' CAREER ENDS. Resignation of Minister to Greece Received by State Department. Washington. Formal announcement announce-ment of the resignation of George Fred Williams as minister to Greece and Montenegro was made late Monday Mon-day at the state department. Aroused over press dispatches continually con-tinually quoting the minister as bitterly bit-terly criticising conditions in the new kingdom of Albania and arraigning the responsible European powers, the president caused his resignation to be asked for by cable on July 3. It is understood, however, that Mr. Williams, Wil-liams, foreseeing the inevitable, already al-ready had the resignation on the way to Washington. Mr. Williams, who was a member of congress years ago, is a lawyer and was appointed to the diplomatic service from Massachusetts. He is a close friend of Secretary Bryan. |
