GREEK ARMY A N D REDS
 WAGE WAR
Now Hold Vital Bridge : Govt. 10 0ut-
 law Communist Party

ATHENS, Dec. 27-lR-Fighting between the Greek Army and Com munist guerrilla units continued in the Konitsa- -Ioannina region of northwestern Greece today as the government reportedly rushed plans for outlawing the Communist Party.
 Greek troops, fighting up the main highway from Ioannina. made con- tact with guerrillas holding the vital Bourozani Bridge in the Konitsa area, key to the main communica- tions line from Ioannina.
 Guerrilla forces meanwhile, were reported employing artillery and mortars extensively in an effort to prevent any reinforcement of the Konitsa garrison which already has been attacked three times and is in a state of semi-siege.
 In Athens, the government, react ing to the proclamation of Greek Communist state, was said to be pre- pairing to pass a law outlawing the Communist Party and certain other leftist groups. The new law report edly would be based on similar one enacted under the late Premier Eleutherios Venizelos. but with more severe penalties. The old law has not been enforced in recent years.
 The Coordinating Council, legis- lating while Parliament is in recess was expected to approve the law and make it effective within 10 minutes by publishing it in the gov ,ernment gazette.
 Premier Themistokles Sophoulis informed United States Charge dAffairs Karl Rankin last night that the Greek Army needed strengthening. Authoritative sources had reported that the Army's ar tillery fire power had been greatly exceeded by that of guerrilla units

 Pauley saia lie mad something less than a million dollars in commodities when he took the goy- ernment job but was disposing of his holdings, as he had agreed to do.

Thousands of Square Miles dt Top of World Searth-

FAIRBANKS, Alaska, Dec. 27.- Manufacturing virtual abandonment of hope for the eight men aboard. officers of the Yukon Sector of the Alaska Air Command said they expected to release today the crew list of the B-29 Superfortress which vanished Tuesday on a long range training mission.
 The announcement came after completion Of three days of aerial searching over thousands of square miles of the top of the contin- ent," in bleak northwestern Alaska adjoining the Polar ice cap.
 Search operations continued yes terday despite a 1000 foot ceiling and intermittent blizzards. Ground temperatures throughout the Alas kan Arctic ranged from zero to 20 below
 Officers at Ladd Field, the big bomber's home base. expressed the belief the crewmen carried am pie emergency rations and cold weather protective equipment to survive for several days in event of a safe landing in the wilder ness. It was viewed as slim possibility, however because no emergency message ever was re- ceive from the plane.

 Chiang's order, informants said, forbade the disclosure of any mili- tary information to the press ol public. It was reported that high authorities several times had dis closed highly secret military per- sonnel transfers and other war sec- rets.
 Chiang ordered severe punish ment for violators.

L0NG5HOREMEN MAY REFUSE TO HANDLE CARG0ES OF ARMS

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 27.-tR-- Refusal of CIO longshoremen to handle cargo bound for countries where workers are struggling against "reaetionary employers, landlords and governments was declared quite likely today by Harry Bridges, head of the Longshoremens and Warehousemen's Union.
 He said his union expected de- mand from overseas workers that they refuse to load arms and other materials for nations such as France, Italy and Greece
 In 1888 and 1889 the longshoremen refused to load scrap iron for Japan until ordered to do so by Wayne Morse, present Republican Senator from Oregon who was waterfront arbitrator for the West Coast.
 Bridges said four union members were being sent to Europe for some first hand, real lowdown dope on what's cooking in many foreign countries"
