English Ships Protect Greece from Invasion
Italians Unable to Land on Islands of Crete, Corfu
MOSCOW, Oct. 31—(U.R)—British warships rushed to the aid of Greece have “prevented Italian landings on the islands of Crete and Corfu,” the Russian army’s official organ, Red Star, said today.
The newspaper predicted, however, that Premier Benito Mussolini would make an early attempt to seize 40-mile-long Corfu, at the entrance to the Adriatic off the heel of the Italian boot.
(British dispatches, telling of the mining of the Greek coasts by British Warships, indicated that no attempt would be made to prevent an Italian occupation of Corfu because of its position only five miles from Port Edda, chief Albanian port of troop disembark-ation>.
“Italy,” said, the Red Star, “is preparing new operations aimed at the occupation of Corfu. Britain is trying to strengthen its strategic position in the eastern Mediterranean.”
The official Soviet news agency Tass said today that “Reuters (British news agency) circulated a report printed in the New York Times that some 120 or 150 military airplanes had arrived in Greece from the Soviet Union during the past few days.”
‘ Tass is authorized to state that this Reuters report is thoroughout the product of the fantasy of its authors and does not correspond to the fact to any extent whatever,” Tass said.
Recently the Red army has been showing United States military attaches many courtesies, including an invitation to inspect the air corps training school in Moscow.
