FOOD FOR GREECE RUGBY, May 19. ■ Progress with the scheme for food relief in Greece was reported in the House of Commons by Mr. Dingie Foot, who said that the scheme for monthly shipments of 15,000 tons of Canadian wheat or flour, authorised by the British, Canadian, and United States Governments provided for disposal of the relief in- the interests of the Greek people by the Swedish Pied Cross. All preparations were being made so that no time would be lost in giving effect to the scheme as soon as the necessary assurances, free from all ambiguity, had been received from the German and Italian authorities.
