353. Editorial Note
Prime Minister Pipinelis resigned on September 26 following protests by the Center Union that his links with ERE and the repeated election law violations during the 1961 campaign necessitated a neutral figure at the head of the Greek Government during national elections. King Paul asked the President of the Supreme Court, Stylianos Mavromichalies, to form a government to oversee elections. Mavromichalies presented his government to Parliament on September 28 and announced that the King would call new elections for November 3.
