The vivacious. elegant city wears now 11 lugubrious aspect. One sees .Athens in a present condition of gloom, dil- apidation and depression, As soon as the Germans arrived they enforced the evacuation of all the wounded soldiers froth the Ath- enian hospitals in order to make room for their own wounded. The streets of Athens are now full of wounded Greek soldiers still band- aged and often begging bread. The horrors of the German occup• ation are aggravated by the humilia tion felt by the Greeks in seeing de- feated Italians replacing German troops. The former show an arrogant attitude, although they endeavour to show themselves more humane than the /atter. Looting by the Germans, either openly or by means of spuriousmarks, marks, was so complete that it left very little for their successors. More- over, the Gestapo remains the sup- reme master and its exertions are the same as in every other Germ aan- °mple(' country. Some well-educated and cultured Greeks felt the German tyranny so cruelly that they liave committed suicide. The fond situation becomes daily worse and worse. Communications remain in their chaotic condition. The bridge armee the Corinth Canal. destroyed during the campaign, has now been replaced by a temporary wooden bridge, which, however. is such a weak structure that only the smallest locomotives with one or two carriages may pass across it. Railway communications beyond the pass of Thermopylae continue to be disrupted. Thus, when the Inter- national Red Cross decided to send supplies of concentrated food ex- racts for the use of the *wounded of all armies in "Greece, they were ot'ced to send them by air mail, as hey were unable to do so by rail. The port of Piraeus and the dis- riete around have been heavily amused by the explosion in the middle of the port of a ship loaded 1111111111 munitions. It was caused by a German raid last April. There was o direct hit on the ship, but on one barges loaded with oil, from which the resulting fire spread to 61 ANNIVERSARY SERVICES NORTHSI DE sEIIIRTED TH CHURCH SUN Y, OCT 19th Rev. Dr. A.

When the Germans occupied Ath- ns they compelled many Greek ship owners living in Greece, although their ships were trading aln'otql, to i telegraph their agents in America I and elsewhere to withdraw their ships from the Allied service. These I telegrams were communicated to the Greek agents in New York by the j German Consul General, through 1 whom they were addressed to them. The Greek agents, of course, refused va to eom lv •-th these evidently p , enemy -dictated orders. The Gestapo thereupon turned its wrath against the shipowners in Athens and cont- . pelled them to work in Piraeus to clean up the wreekage, demolish wrecked buildings. and sweep up the streets. Such men, old or young, not used to this work, were all included in this cruet typically German order, which is still being applied by the Italians.
