GREEK STRATEGY IN THE ALBANIAN CAMPAIGN
("Reuters" Military Commentator)
LONDON, Dec. 5.-The Greek campaign has already given a very hard blow
to the Axis and to Mussolini in particular.
'The full results, however, are not yet decided; these results may be infinitely far-reaching, and decisive results can only be attained if the campaign is carried on with the utmost vigour.
Everything depends on that | word vigour that is to say, the strategy of the campaign' must largely bo decided by the character of the Commander-in- Chief.
The main decision before him seems to be whether or not to pursue a cautious polley of not pressing for- ward to the sea and of giving up
the idea of destroying the Italian army in Albania. The object of such be to establish a good line of and
10 avoid counter attack from the Italians. Such a policy may be theoretically safer than dashing advance, but is fi in practice?

The Italians would be given time ver and would have thing to 10 recover bring fresh reinforcements from Haly. Would the position of the Greck army then be so sate?

Many factors in the present situn- tion in Albania would urge # vigorous pursuit. Though the lines of com- munication are difficult and rallways are conspicuous only by their ab- sence, a rush to decisive points should not put an undue strain un transport.
Navies Could Help
Ships of the Greek and British Davies should be able to give most. effective assistance to an attack oni Valon and Durazzo as soon as the Greek land forces are within striking distance. If the Greek command can capture these ports, the results will be almost decisive as far as the war An Albania is concerned. A great portion of the Italian army would be destroyed, being forced to surrender or die. Few could escape to the north.
