A national “Famine Emergency Committee” With ex-President Herbert Hoo- ver as chairman, will conduct an “eat_less” campaign in the USA. As head of the American Re- lief Commission following World War I, Hoover utilized weapons of hunger and famine to promote governments accept- able to the dollar-diplomacy of U.S. imperialism. HIGH QUALITY LOGGERS AND WORK BOOTS taking it for granted that the British are behind them for everything they do is undeni- able. Whether the British are behind them or not is another matter, but when the organized hoodlums wall start something with Albania or Bulgaria, the British forces cannot remain neutral, and once the shooting starts, we're in it. If we want to hold onto the democratic rights we have, we cannot afford, to deny them to the Greeks. We cannot live securely in a world half free and half slave. When Bevin denied the facet that in Greece there is a white terror, he knew well he was denying the truth, for time and again la- borite members of parliament in the House of Commons reported so, and on the basis of what they have seen in Greece. The Greece of today has never been so isolated im all her exist- ence. Greece is the only country in Hurope that has the worst black market in all the world, the most chaotic economic con- ditions, rampant instability, and the greatest number of state- protected gangsters.

On one hand the hundreds of thousands of the people of these two cities defending the independence of theiz country, on the other, the mechanized forces of General Seobie. It will take volumes to describe the atrocities commit- ted by the Greek quislings and the other forces under the com- mand of Scobie; the arresting of children of 6 to 12 years old, ealline them ELAS troops and taking them to concentration camps in North Africa; the bay- onetting of the ELAS prisoners and the attempt to starve the people of Athens and Pereus to submission. But the people of Athens and Pereus did not submit, they fol- lowed the ELAS and obeyed the EAM. The epic fight the Greeks put up during the 33 days of fighting against the new invad- ers is the bitterest page in resisting, so much so Minor. They want a democratic republic and are determined that George Gluxberg will never sit on the Greek throne again. Im 1936, that man, having: violated - the constitution, had established |a fascist dictatorship. The Eng- lish people know how to deal with those monarchs that tres- pass the will of the people; the Greek people will do no less. During the war tue ELAS put itself under the command of the middle east and carried out every order to the letter. Today those that carried these orders are be- ing persecuted for having killed Germans_during the Nazi occu— pation. Not a single traitor has been executed. They are being acquitted with lucrative pensions. This government is encourag— ing a war against Albania and Bulgaria, knowing the British © will be involved. On the other hand, as soon as the British forces will be evacuated, the pro- vocateurs will submerge because = they know very well that the people of Greece will not permit another war. ; Next month the bogus elec— tions will take place. Should there be an attempt to legalize the fascist rule in Greece, the ELAS will unfurl again its glor- ious banners and the fight wall be on. Stop it, by demanding the withdrawal of British troops from Greece. | <_< <<< >_< WAND STUDIO “Anything With a Camera” 3 E.
