GREECE FREED OF GERMANS
(Rec. 11 p.m.) LONDON, November 4. A special communique from Allied headquarters in the Mediterranean says that patrols report that, except for small individual parties, no German troops remain on the mainland of Greece. British troops have landed on the mainland in the vicinity of Salonika preparatory to entering the town. Greece has been entirely freed, reports the Exchange Telegraph’s Rome correspondent. The last German rearguards are believed to have crossed the frontier into Yugoslavia on Thursday night. R.A.F. reconnaissance aircraft based on Greece searched vainly for retreating German columns.
