U.S. APPROVES REQUESTS ATHENS, July 16. The Greek Minister of War (Mr Stratos) has announced that the United States has approved Greece’s requests for United States medium bombers, tanks, flame-throwers, mountain artillery, and heavy machine-guns. Mr Stratos said he hoped to secure more United States financial aid to recruit an army of 350,000 to fight the guerrillas. The Communist Free Greece radio said to-day that the Greek Government had again rejected General Markos’s proposals to end the fighting.
