PUBLICLY TORTURED
DEATH OF GREEK CLERIC. TERRORISM IN BALKANS AND ELSEWHERE. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) LONDON, February 20 \ The Free Greek newspaper in London discloses that the Germans publicly tortured the Archimandrate of the Church of St. Nicholas in Piraeus, after which they executed him. The Germans have arrested and deported hundreds of people from the Aegean Islands, where the Axis troops, who are not being regularly supplied, have been ordered to live off the land in spite of the widespread starvation among the population, the paper says. The Gestapo has instituted a new wave of terrorism against Czechs who refuse to hand over their harvests to the Germans, it is learned. Seven far-mer-millers in central Bohemia have been shot for grinding and selling their own grain ,and three farmers have been shot in Prague for not delivering threequarters of their crops to the Germans.
