LONDON, April %. CUP)-British
military informants, admitting .
British-Greek retirement to a new
line south of Lamia, refused today
to comment on German reports that
the British expeditionary force had
started to eyacuate Greece.
They said that after a two-day
retirement from the Larisa area,
the British and Greek forces were
now getting into new positions on
line south of Lamia.
1t was indicated that the British
eXpeditionary was making its stand
in and around the historic pass of
Thermopylae, in which, in 490 BIC,
Leonidas. the Spartan king, and
500 of his men held off the army
of Xerxes of Persia until all were
dead.

Churchill Defends
Spanish Policy as
Check on Germany

LONDON, April % (UP)-Prime
Minister Winston Churchill told the
House of Commons today that Brit
ain desires to avoid break with
Spain and defended British policy
toward the regime of Gen. Francisco
Franco against angry criticism by
Labor party members.
The attack on Britain's policy to-
ward Spain arose from increasing
fears in London that Spain shortly
may announce full adherence to
the tri-power military pact and COL
laborate with Germany in an at
tack upon Gibraltar.
British policy in Spain" Church.
i'll said, has been carefully con-
sidered and the state of our af-
fairs in every part of the world
does not allow matters of this kind
to be handled in rough, reckless
and debonair fashion"
I'VE do not wish to do anything,
Churchill said, (which would give
any excuse for break presently
between us and the Spanish gov
ernment and we certainly consider
that the starving condition of the
people of Spain fully justified the
assistance being given by Great
Britain and the United States, if
they choose SO to act, irrespective of
whether any expressions of graft
tude are forthcoming or not"
The Spanish question was raised
by Josiah Wedgwood Labor party
member, who requested a parlia-
mentary debate upon Britain's re-
cent loan of $10,00000O to Spain.
WedgWood asked-to the cheers
of the house-whether Churchill:
rs aware that this money will
go straight to German hands? Is
there any chance of any of it being
saved? Is not our representation
by Sir Samuel Hoare in Spain a
little too eXpensive?"
Churchill replied:
Many people thought that in
July of last year Spain would enter
the war against us and it is verv
largely due TO the brilliant dis
charge Of his duties by our am
basSador to Spain that our rela-
tions with that country tended 10
improve and not deteriorate at this
critical time"

Bombardment of Tripoli by heavy
and light units of the British Med
iterranean fleet means not only
the resumption of a large scale
naval offensive against German re-
inforcement, trying to reach north
Africa but it indicates as we'll that
no critical problem regarding naval
protection for evacuation has arisen
in Greece.
If there were serious uneasiness
about evacuating Greece. it seems
improbable that any part of the
British fleet would be assigned to
other duties at a distance.
From Tripoli to Greek waters is
about 700 miles. That means about
two days would be required to re-
call the fleet and get it into po-
sition to guard transports between
Greek and Egyptian ports.
Undoubtedly some units of the
Mediterranean fleet have remained
in the vicinity of Greece but if a
large scale evacuation had been
planned for immediate execution

British Silent
On Emburkotiora

Elements of three crack German
armored divisions are leading the
drive southwark from Larisa, mill
tary informants said. and are suf-
fering frigEtful casualties in the
British rear guard action which is
covering the consolidation of the
new line.
The informants said the Greeks
were suffering greater difficulties
than the British because OF extra
ordinary bad communications west
of the Pindus mountains.
At Lamia, the battle front had
moved 10 a point about 100 miles
northwest of Athens.
The main railroad extends from
Lamia TO Athens, on the south
west coast of Greece. A further
retreat southwark by the British
and Greek forces would take them
in sideways retreat from which,
in an extremity, they would have to
try TO move through a bottleneck to

BY JOSEPH w. GRIGG, JR.

BERLIN, April % (UP)-Ger-
manys armored forces, pursuing
British and Greek forces southwark,
have occupied Volos and Lamia, on
the British flank and Ioannina on
the Greek flank, the high COM
mand said today.
VoloS and Lamia, whose capture
brought the German troops to with
in 100 miles of Athens, were taken
by crack German forces thrusting
at the British part of the line, the
right flank, Ioannina, on the left
flank inland from the island of
Corfu. was taken by German force
which stormed the Metsovo pass and
drove southwestward from it, the
high command said.
TRANSPORTS SUNK
German planes yesterday sank six
fully laden troop transports, total
ing 3l,000 tons, on which the Brit
ish expeditionary force was evac-
uating, the high command asserted.
I'm London British military au-
thorities, admitting that the Brit
ish-Greek line had been withdrawn
to point southwark of Lamia,
refused to discuss German reports
of an evacuation)
The official news agency, in its
communiques on the capture of
VoloS and Lamia, said German
troops were pursuing a beaten"
enemy.
Axis diplomatic quarters began
to speculate on the possibility of an
early Greek request for an armis-
tice.
TROOPS CUT OFF
The German capture of Ioannina
raised the question whether many
Greek troops might have been cut
off from the main British Greek
forces. because the Germans had
cut down through the allied line
toward the Ionian sea coast.
In addition to sinking six trans
ports, the high command said, Ger
man planes so severely damaged
several other ships that their loss
might be assumed.
The high command referred to
the evacuation of the British exoe-
dictionary force from the Greek
mainland" 1t was not indicated
whether they might be going TO
the Feloponnesus peninsula, Crete
or to north Africa.
PLANES ACTIVE
AT the same time we'll informed
Nazis, reporting that the British
were still continuing to attempt"
embarkations of troops for north
Africa, said that German planes
yesterday scored a direct hit on
one troop transport filled with north
African troops and severely damag-
ed another.
Volos. whose capture the high
command announced, is at the root
OF a peninsula on the Aegean be-
tween Larisa and Lamia.

TripoIi Bombardment Gives Tipoff
British Not in Distress in Greece;
Germans on Spot, Mason Declares

| heavy naval protection would seem
to be an elementary precaution.
The fact that the British navy can
take time off for a 1400 mile
round trip voyage from the vicinity
of Greece to strike at Tripoli scarce
~ indicates precarious situation
UNEASINESS QUIETED
Some uneasiness has been shown
recently lest the Mediterranean
fleet would be unable to pay proper
attention to arriving German troops
and supplies at Tripoli until after
the Greek campaign had ended or
the front in Greece had been stabil-
lied. The bombardment of the chief
Libyan port of entry indicates, how
ever. the British have the situation
in the eastern and middle Medi-
terranean under better control than
had been anticipated.
AS long as the British navy can
subject Tripoli TO unexpected bonn
bardment at intervals reinforcing
the Germans in Libya will be SER
iously impeded, quite apart from
attacks at sea on transports en-
route to the port. The harbor of
Benghazi which is the only other
haven for the Germans in north
Africa, is too far distant except
for occasional blockade runners.
GERMANS ON SPOT
The situation of the German di-
visions now in north Africa must
be regarded with uneasineSs in Ber-
lin, since the British have demon
strated an apparent ability to Use
their fleet for double duty in Greek
and Tripolitanian waters. 1t is
reasonable to believe Hitler had ex-
pected the British to be so exclus-
lively occupied with evacuations from
the Greek campaign that he could
transport reinforcements to Libya
comparatively free from naval mo-
lestation.
It is scarcely credible that the
German general staff would have
sent only few divisions into north
Africa without expecting to follow
through with large quantities of
supplies and additional troops The
way to do so might have been |
opened if the fighting in Greece
had developed into a disorganized
retreat, with the British trying TO
escape under conditions similar to
0unkirk.
The British Mediterranean fleet
hen would have had to concentrate
is power in Greek waters, endeav-
ring to keep the Germans at bay
long the embarking coast. There
would have been no squadrons to
pare for blocking the crossing
rom Italy into Tripoli.
EVENTS REASSURING
AS events have turned out in
Greece the allied retirement before
uperior German massed attacks
las been orderly. The German ef-
orts to outflank or break through
he opposing lines have been check
d.
Whatever plans may have been
nade in Athens for eventual trans
ort of troops back to Egypt, they
ave not been disorganized by the
ierman advance. AS long as such
rider prevails and the ever short
ming allied line holds fast, it can
e expected that no annihilation of
ne allied forces, which the Ger
lans accomplished in Jugoslavia. is
kelly to occur in Greece.
