UNREST IN BALKANS
ACCUSATIONS AGAINST GREECE Rec. 10 p.m. NEW YORK, May 26. Albania has complained to the United Nations that 43 Greek aeroplanes flew over a shepherds’ camp 15 miles inside Albania on May 21 and fired volleys, killing a man aged 70 and a girl aged 18, wounding eight other persons and killing 48 beasts of burden.
Albania did not ask that the complaint be brought formally before the Security Council, but accused Greece of trying to keep Balkan unrest alive with the object of convincing the Security Council that it should continue to keep Northern' Greece under surveillance.
The complaint was the most serious of a series which Albania made recently about Greek “aggression and interference.”
