BORDER VIOLATIONS

GREECE SUBMITS ALLEGATIONS TO UNO FURTHER ATTACKS REPORTED (Rec. 11.45 a.m.) NEW YORK, December 4. The Greek Ambassador (Mr. Dendramis) has filed with the SecretaryGeneral of UNO formal charges of border violations against Jugoslavia, Bulgaria and Albania, and has asked the United Nations to appoint a commission to make an “on-the-spot” investigation. The Greeks- are bitter over the Big Four’s decision in New York to reject the Greek claim that the Greek-Bulgarian frontier should be revised. They have accused the Allies of ingratitude. Mr. Gonatas said: “Even moral satisfaction is refused to Greece.’ The leader of the Right Wing partisan group, General Zervas, said: “The Allies will regret this injustice.” Mr. Tsaldaris left Paris for New York by air to-day to appeal to the United Nations against “foreign interference” in Greece. Twenty of the garrison of 40 gendarmes were killed last night when 200 guerrillas seized a village near Pripolis in the Arcadia region of Peloponnesus, says an official announcement from Athens. The remainder were mostly injured, but escaped. Reinforcements have been sent to the area. The Associated Press says Government troops are mopping-up in the mountains of central Greece where guerrillas were recently active. Guerrillas derailed two trains in western Thrace, but no one was injured.
