clared that the Intervention Of

declaration of war against Germany
had completed the solidarity of the
allies action.

gerous for a country to desert her
traditional friendships in order to
subordinate herself 10 the selfish
schemes of an INSCRIPTIONS nation.
The invasion of Greek Mace
dOnia encountered no serious resist
ance from Greece. The behavior in
this country of agents OF German
corruption and espionage led the al
lies 10 take or demand measures in
dispensable 10 the security of their
troops.
