Whoeevec he was_ the stowaway died a slow, tortured death in the utility locker of the cargo vessel. operated by the Atlantic Shipping Company of Montreal. She arriv- ed here last Saturday.

Capt. Arthur Hawkins of the Marla G said the man could either have starved to death or suffocat- ed st some time prior to finding of the body April as last. Death came some time prior to that be- cause it was the odor of bad flesh which led to its discovery by a second cook.

Crew members told police they recalled seeing the owner o! the Yankee Cale aboard their vessel before she sailed from Shanghai but none saw him hide. or be hid- den in the ship's utility locker. They said they knew the man as

Earlier the Government said that Greek troops. reinforced by airborne combat veterans. had re,- pelled a LOOO-man gueriila force from she gates of besieged Kon- ltsa, 1.6 miles north of Ioannina and only six miles from the fron- lier in that sector. ‘this announce- ment said the attackers had been driven back to the border.

The Cabinet Minister said Greek troops were moving to intercept the new guerrilla force. and that a battle might take place tonight north of Ionannlna.

The Minister described the sit- uation as serious, but quoted Greek military leaders as saying "oil is going welLfor us."

The new force apparently is in- dependent of the guerrilla band which the Government said in- lBdEd Greece from Albania yester- dsv and attacked Konitsa.

There was some indication the unit was composed of Chamour- ons. Moslems llvinz along the Greek-Albanian border who pre- viously had been reported ready to attack Greece from Albania.
