Athens, Oct. 29th. via London, Oct Both
The "Parls" which supports the provisional
Government set up by former Premier Ven
izelos published this morning several docu-
ments which it characterized as revelations
regarding the attitude of the Greek Govern
ment at the time of the Bulgarian and Ger
man occupation Of northeastern Greece.
Included in the documents is the text of
messages sent by the Minister of War, the
newspaper says, ordering surrender to the Ger
mans ard Bulgarians of fort Rupel near Demlr
Hissar. The former Premier M. 9kouloudis who
was then at the head of the Government said to
the Associated Press correspondent, "Hesist-
ance by Greece to the Germans and Bulgarlans
at that moment would have been ridiculous,
A. long as the Government had decided to
remain neutral all we could do was to obtain
written gnarantees for the return Of The forts
and their contents to Greece for the safe
guarding of private property etc. By giving
up fort Rupel without resistance we obtained
such guarantees. The Central Empires have
not kept the terms of the written guarantees.
1t is not the fault of the Greek Government.
What more could we have gained by resist
ing"
