NICOSIA, May 19 (Reuter).-It is now possible to reveal that a party of Imperial troops who were the remnants of the historic rearguard at Mount Olympus, in rags, some of them ill and wounded, have reached the shores of Cyprus after the most astonishing escapes among the Greek Aegean islands.

They tell storics of desperate resistance against Impossible odds when Nazi planes, tanks and infantry in massed assaults tried to semush their lac.

One Anzae said: "The Germans come on the line like men possessed, determined to be slaughtered. We mowed them down like flies. One river, where we made a stand, was so cholted with German bodies that you could walk nero.

De Gaulle Replies LONDON, May 10 (Reuter).- Complete disavowal of the "agree- menis" between the Vichy Gover- ment and Germany is contained In a declaration by General de Gaulle to the British Government and the chiefs of the Allied Governments in

London

"It states that the Vleky "Govern- ment" has placed itself in a position which deprives itself of all independ ence with regard to the invader.

The source of the Vichy so-called government lies exclusively in the person of an old man who, for many years, has been known to be en- feebled by age.

A Belligerent State The declaration continues: "First- ly, France cannot and must not be held responsible for acts supposedly committed in her name by rulers who usurped power and subjected them- selves to the enemy.

"Secondly, the French nation is continuing the war by means of all her military forces and territories outside enemy control and should. therefore, be considered a belligerent nation by all states and as an ally by those who fight the common enemies,"

All the above are Incorporated in "The Great Dietator", which is now showing at the Oriental Theatre, at popular prices. There is a great de- mand for scats at all performances and indications are that the picture will have a record run at this popu- lor theatre

The picture tells of the horrors of Nazism and how the Jews are per- secuted by Hitler and his storm troopers. In the midst of all Charlie Chaplin, with his barber's shop in the Chetto, brings comical Tellef to an otherwise somewhat sordid story, making "The Great Dictator" one of the best-directed and most entertaining alms ever to have been shown locally.
