By John A. P arria (United Praan Financial Editor) London, Oct. 21 Ui Five hun dred persona ttty are dying of starvation in Greece, but the gal lant little nation grimly buries Hi dead and fights on against Adolf Hitler. Out o: ?. -Jr-lallon of 8,000,000 an estimated 880nO persons al- rcrr.ay are ui-au, tiintT iivni bihit ation or German guns. Reliable reports say 100,00u of the 880,000 died beiore itnng squads. Tw6 hundred - Greek villages are in ruins. Every hour more men, women and children collapse and die in the streets. "Send us wheat or send us cof fins," is the cry that comes out of the stricken land. Guerillas Fight On But In the hills and mountains of Greece 60,000 guerilla patriots fight on, keeping U to 16 Ger man divisions busy and paving the way for an allied invasion. This picture of Greece today came from persons getting infor mation from Inside the pillaged land as regularly as the morning " mail. - It was supplemented by witness accounts from Greeks who have escaped and reached London. It is a picture of a land of the dead and dying but a land where Hitler cannot stamp out the burn ing desire for freedom. Food reserves long since have been exhuusted, plundered by the Germans. Officials believe this coming winter may be the worst ever for Greece with food supplies 150,000 tons short of last winter. - Many Are Starved - A Greek friend of mine said the tragedy of Greece is not so mucn tne aeaa wnose bodies are picked up every morning bs the death reflected In the faces of those dragging starved bodies through the streets. 'The suffering endured by the Greek people," he said, "will serve I for all time as the most realistic illustration of hell on earth. "Imagine seeing ragged columns of men, women and children, who no longer '.wash bow that there Je-no soap, picking ovcrthe faro age of the Germans. ""It is not uncommon to see men, women and children drop dead in the I streets. When people die, rela tives place the corpses In the gut ters so they won't have to sur render the bread cards of the deceased." Athens Gaunt, Starved Athens, he said, is gaunt and starved. All horses, eats and dogs have been eaten. The Greek government in exile, has tried to alleviate the situation, sending food for free meals and soup kitchens for about 150,000 persons. The British lifted a blockade to allow shipment of 8,000 tons of wheat Several ship ments have gone through since mid-1942 but not enough to halt the starvation. But two-thirds of the population has not tasted meat or fish since the occupation. Now there is not meat or fish for any Greek. The Germans have prohibited fishing except near the coast where the catch is small. What fish are caught are confiscated. The guer illa fighters live on a diet of goats milk, cheese, dried fruit and olives. 5:00 Jimmy Lunceford ' 6:15 Deschutes County Health Department 5:30 News 5:45 Defense Reporter 5:50 Glenn Miller 5:55 port Yarns 6:00 Organ Reveries 6:15 American Legion Aux iliary 6:30 Jack Connor Trio 6:45 Spotlight on Rhythm L7:00 Voice of the Army 7:13 Industry Looks to the Future 7:20 Woody Herman 7:30 Melody Mustangs 7:45 Broadway Bandwagon MORE ABOUT Teachers Meet (Continued From Page One) B.

Jugoslavian Partisans Carry War to Sea, Sink Two Vessels Aboard A Destroyer Oo Patrol In The Adriatic, Oct 21 Wi The Jugoslavian partisans, who have been harassing the Germans by land for months, have carried their war out to sea and in the last week their small navy claims to have sunk two ships and cap tured another loaded with food. Out on patrol with an allied destroyer squadron, I succeeded in making contact with the parti san navy and boarded one of their vessels for a talk with the com mander. . He and his officers spread mtps on a mess table in their small boat and explained their strategy. They seemed par ticularly proud of the fact that they had captured the cargo of food. ' The German occupation forces In Albania must be getting pinched for supplies, for in the last few days allied naval vessels virtually have .swept German shipping off the Adriatic. The de stroyersquadron which I am ac companying has torpedoqd onej freighter to the bottom arid caM lurea anoiner ana a tanker. The food ship which the parti san navy captured was a 1300-ton vessel. "We dominate the coast from Flume' south, with a ma jority of the Islands in our hands," the partisan naval com mander said. "To reach Volano and Durazzo (the principal Al banian ports), German shipping has to run a gauntlet of thlse is lands to evade British destroyers based on Italy." . t The partisans said they had mounted shore batteries to com mand the principal channels. "We sank two German ships with gunfire from our shore bat teries and damaged a third with our first shot," the commander said. "Then we boarded the re maining vessel, executed the Ger mans aboard and seized the cargo." German prisoners with whom I talked said they were relieved to have fallen into British hands be cause if they had been taken to Jugoslav soil they would have been dead men shortly. The partisan leaders told me there is a major offensive now going on in Croatia, Bosnia, and Dalmatia. They estimated Gen. Tito's army of national liberation at 300,000 men, comprising all po litical denominations. Lodgeman Returns From Conference Paul B. Brookings, grand marshal of the grand lodge of Oregon, I.O.O.F., was back In Bend today after visiting the grand lodge session of Idaho, at Wetser. Nineteen lodge members attended, from Oregon, according tp Brookings, Including Roy Com stock, grand master from Baker; Art Foster, grand patriarch of the grand encampment, Portland; Mrs. Bertha McCollum, president of .Rebekah assembly of Oregon, and miss Louise smith, secretary of Rebekah assembly of Baker. Brookings also represented de partment's counsel of Oregon of the Patriarchs Militant; . Admiral Pound Dies in England London, Oct. 21 (IPi Adra. Sir Dudley Pound, who directed Bri tain's battle fleets as first tea lord and naval chief of staff from the outbreak of the war until a sud den Illness forced his retirement two weeks ago, died today. Sir Dudley, who had spent 52 of his 66 years in the royal navy, was stricken late in August, a few days after his return with Prime Minister Winston Churchill from the allied conferences In Washington and Quebec. He is survived by two sons and a daughter. ' Sir Dudley, who held the rank of admiral of the fleet, was ap pointed first sea lord on July 81, 1939, a month before the start of the war, and turned over his command of the Mediterranean fleet to Sir Andrew Browne Cun ningham, who succeeded him as first sea lord on Oct 5. Mother Was American Although half American his mother was the former Elizabeth Pickman Rogers, of Boston, Mass. the late naval chief confirmed I in every respect to the traditional j concept of the British sea dog. A bluff, steely-eyed veteran, he spent most of his service on ac tive duty, commanding the armor ed cruiser Colossus in the battle nf Jutland in tha flret Wnrlifl war. shatter rail lines and knockout bridges north of Rome; Germans predict air-sea assault on Italian capital. ltusala Red army advance guards cover one-third of distance across Dnieper river bulge mov ing to cut off 1,000,000 German troops; Russians within 27 miles of Krioi Rog; heavy forces move into position to last five miles Into Kiev.
