ALLEGED GREEK AGGRESSION
UKRAINE’S CHARGES DEBATED DEMAND TO SECURITY, COUNCIL (Rec. 8 p.m.) NEW YORK, Sept. 17. The United Nations Security Council continued its debate on the Ukraine’s charges that “aggression" by the Greek Government, supported by British troops, endangered Balkan peace. Mr Lange (Poland) said that Poland had previously taken the view that the presence of British troops in Greece was definitely not a threat to peace, because Poland believed that the Balkan situation would improve and that the troops would be withdrawn. Unhappily the situation had deteriorated, and Poland would support the Soviet resolution demanding that the Council require Greece to halt her provocative actions against Albania. The Greek situation, said Mr Lange, was an example of how the spirit and shadows of Munich were again descending on Europe particularly in the direction of Poland, which had been asked to cede part of her territories to Germany, including! the Silesian industrial region, to provide a unified reactionary Germany with an arsenal with which to prepare a new war of conquest. After Mr Manuilsky (Ukraine) and Mr Dendramis (Greece) had made further statements the Council adjourned until to-morrow.
