Ronald Scobie, commander of Brit ish troops in Greece, was studying the reply of Fam, governing body of the Elag,. to the formula he laiG down Hast week for settlement of the Greek Civil War. The reply was said to be conciliatory and some hope was held for a quick truce.
 British observers in northwest Greece reported the Edes forces, numbering some 12,000, were falling back under the ElaS attack into mountains whic hthye had honey combed with caves, tunnels and de- fensive positions during the German occupation.
 Gen. Napoleon Zervas, the Edes commander, sent the urgent appeal to the British command for assist ance from British air and land forces, but no decision has been made on his request as yet.
