Greek Fat In Fire Again
(Rec. 11.45 a.m.) LONDON, June 28. Civil war has again broken out in Greece, according to reports received in the Middle East. Sporadic fighting is going on between the powerful and numerically superior National Liberation Army and a smaller, strongly Monarchist, band under Colonel Zervas. Both sides claim that hostilities were started by the other. The outbreak has virtually dissolved the agreement between Greek political forces arrived at by the recent Lebanon conference. Dissolution of the agreement has been hastened by the clandestine court martial in Cairo at which officers and soldiers of the Greek army and sailors of the Greek navy are being tried for incidents ujlijch occurred before the Lebanon meetings.
The strongly-backed liberation movement inside Greece has turned down an offer of ministerial posts in the Greek Government in exile, of which Fapandreou is Premier.
