He said they would be tried by a "committee of security" headed by regular judges. "Those persons found not dan- gerous will be relreased," he said, Banging away at what has be- come a recurrent theme of the new government, he said the "situation was approaching an- archy" in Greece prior to the takeover. DISCOVERED PLOT Two days ago, army-backed Premier Constantine Kollias told King Constantine, whom Papadopoulos said had not been informed of the coup until after While Papadop reveal the mass trials to deal with the allegedly "dangerous" opposi- tion at home, plans were an- nounced abroad for a Greek government in exile.

Thousands At Expo 67 MONTREAL (CP)--Expo 67 threw its gates open to the pub- lic today and thousands swarmed into the grounds of the $650,000,000 exhibition with howls of joy. Promptly at the scheduled time of 9:30 a.m. EST, about 17 hours after the fair was in- augurated with pomp and cere- mony, the first wave of visitors came through the turnstiles, manned by nervous-looking at- tendants at la Place d'Accueil. This is one of the four main entrances to the Expo site on the St. Lawrence River. Rockets burst in the air and the sun beat down from clear but there were chilly winds as a makeshift count- down took place over a public- address system near the turn- stiles. An Expo official counted out the minutes prior to the 9:30 a.m. opening time, marking every second for the last 30 be- fore 9:30. As he tolled out the minutes a drummer of the Expo band boomed an accompaniment, and the crowd, finding it hard to control its excitement counted along laughingly. On the dot of opening time the turnstiles at Place d'Accueil went into operation and the first of the waiting crowd dashed joyously through. But gate-keepers at the sub- way station on St. Helen's Is- land had to jump the gun on the opening.

Reporters and television crews squeezed into room 625 of the Athens Military Hospital under instructions that only two ques- tions could be put to the 79-year- old politician. Athens Police Chief Constan- tine Tassigiorgos stipulated the questions must be "How are you? and "How are your guards treating you?" An official posed the questions and Papandreou mumbled in- audibly in reply. The official promptly interrupted: "He says extremely good care is being taken of him in this hospital." In response to the second question the official translated: "He says the guards do noth- ing but guard him." : Papandreou interrupted with a faint gesture of irritation and told the official not to change his words. "T'said their duty is to guard me and they are doing this duty," Papandresou said in Greek.
