British armored units checked

the advance temporarily but the peril of being outflanked caused them to draw back. leaving ll ht covering ‘forces which held he Germans several da s and inflict- ed immense casualtes in violent

fighting. The ‘ descent was south of Servia where an Australian

covering force. after holding out for days against land attacks and withering bombings. slipped away to take new positions. y

The third came along the shore beside Mount Olympus where Ger- man engineers opened a strongly barricaded railway tunnel. per- mitting tanks to rush through it

New Zealand defenders of this sector also withdrew in orderly fashion after giving the Germans a brisk battle.

The Germans than attempted to trap all the British forces north of Larisa—whose only route southward was through that heav- ily-bombed city, Although 50 bombers were used in one raid and the city was laid in ruins. the four bridges the British troops had to cross remained intact until they blew them up behind them_

The Nazi air force's attacks have had little real effect. No- where have their bombe s de- stroyed any important bridges.

Falling back with the British troops. I went through more than 50 air attacks. one by 40 planes which went up and down the road as I lay in the mud of a nearby river bed. This lasted an hour and a half.

The day of the heaviest air at- tacks. I saw two British planes challenge an armada of 17. shoot- ing down one and dispersing the

away with Bren and machine guns. but these were useless since the st- tackers kept out of range.

Big er anti-aircraft guns were avail le at only a few places along the road. and they have taken some toil. but generally speaking the Germans raided with impunity.

The Germans are flingl

at least 1.000 planes and 30 div ions Km

of land forces against the British and Greek troops. Day-long bomb- ings and harassing machine- fire have given the defen ers little respite but two days of stormy weather plus lack of moon for night bombing eased the situation somewhat.

While virtually the entire er- sonnel got away. some mach nes and material were lost. A number of vehicles were pushed into ravines on order in an attempt to stall the Germans.

Near the conclusion of the ban- quot a, telegram was received from the Summerside Board of Trade expressing regret on behalf of the Board and the people of Summer- side at the departure of Canadian Airways from tlfs province.

Premier Campbell, in his opening remarks. spoke of the benefits of the present service to the people of this province and paid tribute to Trans-Canada Air as a great organization which has ea- tablished an enviable record for itself throughout the length and breadth of Canada. A great deal of the credit for the service must go a‘so lo the government of Can- ada which had built two fine air- ports at Charlottetown and St. Eleonora to say nothing of tlu two additional "satellite" a‘rports in Prince County.

These purchases might be onlv for the United States lsngteféir other countries the Uniicd may Wish to he. under the lend-Lease Bill. D As an illustration of how the other aspect of the arrangement will operate the Prime Minister sa-d the engines for airplanes be- in; manufactured in Canada for the United Kingdom now will b9 supplied by the United States un- der provision of the Lend-Lease Blll arrangement with the United _ Bfiom. Up to the present Can- ada had to provide the American 110118-15 l» pay for these engines. The same system would operate with respect to all component parts which Canada must buy in the

merit being manufactured on Brit- ish account.

Operation of the land-lease Bill flDDlies only to what Canada is do- ing for the United Kingdzm the Pfllllg Minister said.

"We have asked nothing for Can- ada under that legislation.” he added.

The increased demand for Cana- dian manufactured goods and raw

of air training schools under the British Commonwealth plan was due to the pioneering work done by Canadian Airways l-imitcd. In 18 years they built up a service. which was not onlv beneficial and convenient. but which established a. Dominion-uncle reputation for favorable flying conditions that at-

some of his flying experiences with various Canadian Airways pilots during the years the organization operated a schedule here. He paid tribu to pilots, Waller Fowler H. S. Jones. Bertram ‘framers. Gor- don Grey. Joe Anderson. Stuart Macklln, Jimmy Wade, Al Little and Carl Burke- all of Whom he has travelled with in Canadian Airways planes.

Mercy Flights

He spoke of the Magdalen service carried out by the pilots during the winter months and also of the hum- erous "ma-ray flights’ WIIICII were often made in adverse wcatiiei- con- ditions. This latter phase of the service asserted well merited rec-

gnition.

The IJIICIFIICY of the ground crews, who were always on the yob to see that the planes were safe for flying, was also cited.

In conclusion. he expressed re- gret at the departure of Canad- ian Airways from this province and welcomed the Trans-Canada Air Lines to the province.

Deputy Mayor J. T. McKee in a few wel chosen remarks expressed the regret of the people of Char- lottetown in seeing the Canadian Airways leaving here and also wel- comed their successors.

Hon. Dr. W. J. P. Maclldillan ex- pressed pleasure at being present at a banquet to honor “the veteran pioneers of the air" in the past, present and future. He referred to Premier Campbell's classification of the air services and the Govern- ment of Canada as being in the same category. This was right as they were "both in the air“ the only difference was that the air service "knew their way about." ‘Illiet Government needs some good

"I do not think Canadian indus- tries or workers would attempt to take advantaize- of the situation." he added. "1 have every admiration for them and confidence in them."

"1 cannot speak too highly of the note of friendly sci-operation which was never so strong its it today“ g1 the United States." g .

The speaker also referred to the “splendid group of Englishmen" broucht here under the Air Train-

ing plan.

l-lc said that the i3 year record of Canadian Airways here was, unmsirred by accident and that they had maintained a courteous, safe and convenient service. I-Ie re- gretted deeply their departurirand wished them success in other parts cf Canada.

Group Captain Blake. B. A. 1". spoke briefly regarding the s len- did co-operation which exlste he- twecn his unit and the personnel of the Canadian Airways. He ex- pressed regret at the departure of their "old comrades."

Mr. Syme. Manager of ‘Pi-ans- Canada Air Lilies referred to the record established by Canadian Airways here and hoped that his organization would receive the response given to their predeces-

sore. sllllellflllllldeflt H. S. Jones of Canadian Airways spoke of ‘he wonderful cooperation given by Rio people of this province and ox- Drossed deep regret at leaving here. Messrs.

Tsouderos, an economist in pub- lic life for more than 20 years, was named premier to head the new cabinet formed as a. result of the suicide last Friday of Premier Alexandros Korizis.

The overwhelming German as- sault which caused the general withdrawal from Mount Olympus. Trlkkala and Larisa began to get results at dawn Friday. it was dis- closed. .

Then the Nazis armored col- umns and regular troops who had been stalled by a Greek defence for nearly two weeks, boiled

through at Grevena pass in the‘

centre of the Olympus line. They took the ruined city 0f Larisa and battered on as far as Karditsa. l4 miles south of Trikkala on the main route to Athens.

British armored troops rushed to plug the hole, but in vain. Aus- tralians and New Zcalanders then were detailed to fight a rear-

uard action and were declared t0 ave responded brilliantly.

The British withdrawal was said to have been dictated by a de- termination not to be outflanked at any point.
