Communist Control
In Cyprus Impairs
lis Military Value

NICOSIA, Cyprus, June "A (CDN.
The value of Cyprus as a military
base in time Of war Is seriously
threatened by the fact that the
Communists have gained control
OF local government.
The mayors of the five largest
towns in Cyprus are members Of
the Communist-dominated Reform
Party of the Working People
known for short by its Greek ini-
tials AKEL.
An outgrowth of EAM-ELAS,
AKEL was founded in 1941 by Plutis
Servas, present mayor Of Limassol.
Mr.. Servas, though born in Cyp-
rus, became q leader OF the Com
munist Party of Greece. Sentenced
to exile during the prewar die
tatcrship of the late Gen. John
Metaxas, he managed to escape to
Moscow where he received special
training at the Comintern insti-
tute.
Many Factors Seen.
He returned to Cyprus at the
outbreak Of World War II and built
up his organization here during the
heyday Of the resistance movement
against the Germans in Greece and
Yugoslavia
The remarkable success of AKEL
has been due to the combination
of such factors as wartime propa-
ganda in favor of the Soviet Union,
distorted news of events in Greece
and Yugoslavia, the stupidity Of
local rightwing politicians, the high
cost of living, anti-British feelings
and the desire of most people in
Cyprus for union with Greece.
The British administrators of this
crown colony, however, are conf
dent that the tide is turning and
that the Communists will lose heav-
lily in the next elections.
Their confidence is perhaps wish
full thinking. But it is true, never
theless, that two events have con-
spired to weaken the Communists
influence in this predominantly
Greek island.
Archbishop's Death a Factor.
The first setback was the death
last year of Leontios, the Red"
Archbishop of the Orthodox Church
who has since been succeeded by
the anti Communist Archbishop
Makarios. The second was the fall
ure of a Communicated strike this
spring against the American-owned
Cyprus Mines Corp.
Although the company's $500 cop
per miners received small in
crease in pay-which they would
probably have received in any case
its effect was more than wiped out
by the loss Of wages entailed by
the strike itself. The miners are
now said to be so bitter about the
results of the strike that they are

preparing to vote their Communist
union leaders out of office.
In Limassol, meanwhile, a num-
ber of municipal employees have
filed suit against the local govern
ment for firing them because they
refused to join the Communist
controlled Municipal Employees and
Workers Union.
The dismissed employees belonged
to q non Communist union called
the Permanent Municipal Employees
Association.
Mr.. Servas, however, in his ca
pacity as mayor, persuaded his
handpicked municipal council to
enforce the principle of the closed
shop" by withdrawing its recogni-
ton of the non-Communist union
and dismissing all employees who re-
fused within a specified time to
| join its Communist rival.

Ischool through areas of heavy traf-
fic, he added.
In giving the background OF the
Powell school, Mr.. Walters said he
deplored the changeover of the
school from an elementary school
to the present junior high school.
The association sent a letter to
the Board of Education asking them
to hold up the proposed transfer
until they obtained the reaction of
community residents.
The meeting, conducted by DR.. c.

Powell School. Hiatt place and La

Robinson QUITS

The resignation of William
B. Robinson as a member of
the ST. Croix Council hits the
electorate of that municipal
ity squarely between the eyes.
Less than a year ago Mr..
Robinson, former Director of
Police, sought the office in a
race against two other candi-
dates, He got more votes than
his two opponents combined,
even though it had been
charged that Mr.. Robinson, a
continental, had no interest in
St. Croix, and that if elected, he
would not complete his term
of office. The voters dismissed
these charges as empty poll
teal propaganda, and voted
Mr.. Robinson in. But no soon
er was he sworn into office
that he left the island and has
not been back since, Thus
fooled, the voters have been
taught an expensive lesson.
Let US hope they will profit
from their experience.
