(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.

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

stock, grand master from Baker;

of .Rebekah assembly of Oregon,
and miss Louise smith, secretary

Brookings also represented de
partment's counsel of Oregon of

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.
