Situation In Libya & Balkans Reviewed
(By "Reuter's" Diplomatic Correspondent)" LONDON, Apr. 17-The battle is now engaged on the Greek front and Italo-German and Greco-British forces are locked to- gether in a life and death struggle over a line which extends from Mount Olympus to the Albanian hills on the Ionian Sea.
Much of this area is im- penetrable for military opera- tions and it is a fact that an offensive has to follow cortain roads and 'valloys that give the defence an opportunity of making the best use of its limited resources.
