BAY0NET FACTOR
in BALKAN FIGHT
Is Playing Important Part In
Greece's Drive Against
Italy In Albania

SALONIKA, Greece, Dec. la
The use of bayonets which many
military observers predicted woule
be discarded as worthless IN moo
ern warfare is proving a decisive
factor in the Greek army's orlve
into Albania against ltalys Hecl'
anized legions.
Wounded soldiers and neutral W,
returning from the notnern
fighting front have declared IMAM
mo11sly that the capture OF Pogra'
detz and Koritza was achieved
mainly at the point of the bayone'
in the hands of Greece's 1lerce
Macedonian shock troops.
Epecially was this true at 70
or.detz wounded infantry
men said. After five days OF ar
tillery and machine-gun flghting'
the hard-fighting Evzone mountain
troops stormed a dominating hill
sector with their bayonets.
The Greek newspaper Progret
answered what it called an Italian
radio assertion that Greek bayonet
warfare which shows a nation IS
uncivilized" by declaring that
"bayonet fighting certainly is less
barbarous than using Italian bomb
ing planes against noncombattants
49,. 1t is not our fault if the enemy
lacks the courage of soul against
these bayonet charges. Greek
bayonets will continue to do good
work in Albania"
Reports from the PogradetX front
today indicated the Italians were
withdrawing on the road toward
the Albanian city of Elbasanl
and were fighting only a rearguard
action l
