The Communists, Admiral Sakel-
lariou said In an interview. have
concealed their objectives through
skillful use of propaganda.
Oppose Dictatorship.
II am afraid that very few people
even among the American born
Greeks-have a concrete idea of the
real situation in Greece" he said.
ITO the majority, what happens In
Greece today is only but a continua-
ton Of the old conflict between the
crown and democracy. But I know
that the Greeks hate the rule of any
minority, whatever that minority
may be; they will stand for no rule
by a minority either Of the political
elite or the proletariat. Above all,
no one in Greece will be found to
support dictatorship.
Whether the Greek people desire
to be governed by q crowned or un-
crowned republic is for them to de-
eide in free election"
THE big majority-the peasants
and the middle-class citizens of
cities-hate the Communists and
their principles of government, but
is neither armed nor organized to
counteract," Admiral Sakellariou
said.
"By careful propaganda" he said,
the Communist leaders have con-
vinced most of those fighting with
them that they are fighting for the
liberation of Greece from the Brit
ish invaders and interventionists
Cause of Clash.
when the existing government,
composed of men from different
political factions, landed in our lib
Grated country and asked all guer-
rilla parties to surrender their arms
and obey the British commander in
chief" he continued, "all guerrilla
parties obeyed, with the exception of
the Communists, and thus the clash
began"
Admiral Sakellariou explained the
designations of the different fac
tions in Greece. On the one side is
the EDES, the peoples army, which
turned in all its arms after the
British had driven the Germans out
Of Greece. On the other is the
ELIAS. the army of the Fam, which
is the Communist party. The EAM,
in turn, is governed by the IKE,
