Shipping of Greek refugees continues at ,·,hat appears to be great apoed but on closer observation tre speed involves not the ship or tho refugees but only tho changes in pln.ns, This is inevitable, The D:-idc.n finilly left Haifa on the 21st of August having boon ~ohedulod originally for the 18th Md having been moved up day by day f'ror.1 the 18th to the 21st, She carried n.bout 2000 refugees to tho Acge.:ln Islands and the Ma.inland, including a fow tuberculosis and mental oases,
!:olly Flynn returned from Cyprus tho 19th of August. She ana Edi th Gates, UNP,RA D,P. Representative on Cyprus, sottlod the questions Edith hAd about refugees travelling on mule and pot~toe boats o.nd. cai~ues vhioh are going back and forth nor,. The rcfugcos naturally V-t::Qt to go on anything that rosomblcs a boat, lfost of these boats have no aoocr.unodationa for passengers and have no life boats, Edith has been trying to oantrol movos on thoso ships but a fcrw refugees have rctUl'.'ncd to thoir homes by this means. This involvos extra ,mrk of training group loaders, making nominal rolls and all the routi!le which is nooossnry far a big group. Tho families of officers and cro'\'/S o-.;.'"' tho cniouos rri.ontioncd above wanted to return with them. This nas permitted if the Greek Govcrnmait reauostoa the families crf tho officers n.nd. the Cyprus Government ordered the familios of the oroi1s to return and both wore approved by Wm.RA. .Again thoso small moves aro time consuming and difficult ,;ith limitod personnel.

1. A ttachea. is a :petition ·which has reach.ea. us f'rom the :families o:E' r.-reek ex-r.Iutineers hela. in the Middle East. These people are a military commi ttment ,1i th regara. to a.ecision to repatriate anc1
. transport; they are civilianised en route; and they receive ordinary refugee treatment on arrival in Greece except in the case of special groups for ' f ose nmintenance end f'orvrardin~ to their homes the .,Iinistry o~ iar assumes responsibility.
2. I have repeatedly pressed the B.G.S. to secure f'or us exact :figures of' the numl)ers involved. We have made it plain to GHQ MEF that, more especially in the case of' ~hies and Sames, the ex-mutineers must be included in the agreed monthly refugee totals, and that they must r)e included in the ship:9ing schea.ule. ',/ould you
be so 2:ooa. as to discuss this with the B. G. s., to obviate our once again having these groups put into our h , nds without warning. As the attached f'igures supplied by the Ilinistry of' Repatriation are not always accurate, rJOuld you please ask the B.G.S. to get us accurate figures, brealc dovm of destinations and intende(l dates of s'lirnnent back to Greece? -
3 . I propose not to aclmowledge receipt of' the petition, since our resuonsibilities in this matter 1ni~ht be misconstrued even by a simple acla1owledgement.

~e appeal to UNRRA. in the name of humanity ~na justice
to repc:1.tria te the Greek fighters of Albania and El-Ala.me in m. o
are now rotting closea and forgotten in the camps of the African
desert, and in the native prisons of Kembeit because• in April
1944 they asked for a Greek Government of National Defence and
the liberation of Greece by the Greek troops in ·aeast~
These men though they uere given amnesty l~st September,
they continue to be held unjustly and illegaly in the African
camps, with the excuse that there are no means of transport.
You are the last hope for many a thousand of worried
Greek families and they know that . if you iirant you can bring back
their guardians who left in 1941 because of their love for their
country and the Allied Fight.
Hoping that you 111 understand our position and that you will
do everything to help us, we beg you to let us lmow your decision.

'Ve have received still another communication from Miss Elizabeth Bro~m, UNRRA Representative in Jerusalem, to the effect that the Greek Consul General, Mr. Christodoulqs, still maintains that he has orders not to visa the DP-2 cards of refugees in that area who are not being supported by the Minis try of 1Jelfare. He also m intains that UNRRA has no responsibility for re:r:a tria ting the Sephardic and other Je•~rish groups.
Apparently Mr . Christodoulos bases this contention upon the fact that many of the people who are not being supported by the Minis try hold certificates of identity on which are printed"·•·•· has been granted permission to remain in Palestine as an immigrant under the immigration ordinance of 1933n. We have the assurance of the Palestine Department of Immigration that these are not considered as authentic i1mnigrant certificates and do not make the holder anything other than a refugee.
:Mr. Venardis, in a conversation held in Col. Hyde's Office on June 20, agreed tha.t the holders of these certificates are refugees and that the Greek Government should approve their repatriation. All of his efforts along this line as well as ours, have so far been blocked by the Jerusalem Consul General.
It may be that this is a move on the part of the Greek Governn.ent to force the repatriation of fue Ministry list people at an earlier date, than might otherwise be the case; however, this is open to some question, and our staff is not unanimous in this interpretation. There

are some 700 to 900 people not on the .. Unis try list in Palestine, and we are most anxious to get this matter settled at the earliest possible date. Would you therefore, make strong representation to the Foreigh Office an:i get it to is sue instructions to the Consul at Jerusalem to live up to the agreements wbich have been rmde.

( 4 July 1945
'i'here are, as you 1:novr, some 1100 G-ree!c refu ees in ~i.byssini , in camps at Add.is Ababa and Diredawa. These .:.«e ople ,·,ere transferred f'ron CaIJ¥) Hoses ,"ells betv,een June 19li-3, and :;:,'ebru8l'Y 1941+, as a result of an agreement betv;een tl e Cree : and •, ··ssinian Governments which sti pulated that they should be repatriated vlthin one year after cessation of hostilities. ,They were a I ' responzibilit"'J until their arri val in ..... thiopia am. their repatriation ..-ill be a function of this Office.
He are sending a representative of the Repatriation ::)ivision to .t\dd.is .4:!:)aba and Diredm·,a in the near future to arrange for the removal of the refugees f'ron. these ca.-nps "to a point , probably Djibouti , where they can embark for their passage ho:'.:le. It is important, therefore, that ,~e reach an understanding with you about their repatriation.
It would be much e~sier on the refugees, and a ship could be obtained much mare easily, if they oo uld be transported directly to Greece , Yri thout having to stop off at one of the Hid.dle East Ca.Il1)s . On the other hand, it is likely that any shi·:i we may be abl e to secure i'ar this pur-pose v,ould be able to put into only one Greek port, probably : 'iraeus . 1 ould it be feasible for you to acce t these 1100 ref O'ees at one part , in addition to the regul repatrfo.tion schedule if that is necess"\cy, n.nd then arran e far their transfer to their respective ho,..e regions'i
The distribution of the refugees is as follov:s:

UNR~A 420 CONFIDENTIAL. Ref AEHQ FX92075 of !2 June, our 408 of
I6 June and 413 of IS June.
I. Latest shi opin ~ infonnetion indioates three follov ing possible
alternative plans. In order obtain shippin~ in addition to ::I.P
must a~ree r epa b 1ate total 6000 monthly to Dodecanese and Greece.
a) PK may be retained and subject acceptance by CAB of Dodecanese
repatriates during July and August may be possible arrange monthly
lift 6000 to Dodecanese and Greece. In this event Greek schedule
4I .for July and J1gu.st might stand with amended dates. In order make
full use of shipping might be necessary inolude during months July
August moves planned for I6 and 2~ Jume which at the moment have
been oancelled.
b) Assuming DOD~~ AN~ss repatriation agreed and PK is NO available
may be able obtain one or two sh~ps whiob to~ether co~ad lift 5000
monthly to GREE0~ in addition to IOOO lifted direot to DODECANEq~
by ;p. Draft of above shippin~ would probably preolude these
ne~otiatin~ Aegean channels under present condition and they would
have to unload at Pireaus. I! sufficient camp stores provided
- 1ould you accept 5000 Greeks p er month at Pireaus and arrange onwards
transmission to islands where necessary.
c) If PK is not available and you oanno t agre ( B) above -only EP
will be e.v4ilable. chedule would therefore be approx IOOO per
month end DODSC A~L:'E repe.tri9ti n would be suEpended.

Dear Sir:
We have received from the Director in Camp Nuseirat the following communication:
nKallikantzarou, Katina-F01216J06, a refugee from Kalymnos, has been a resident of Camp Nuseirat since January 1944. She called at our office to inform us that she does not wish to return to Kalymnos but instead wishes to join her husband, Nicolaos, who is now at Rue Podalizivu Parados 7, Piraeus . Will it be possible to ascertain if the husband and his family who live at the same address can accept her and if she can go to Piraeus rather than to Kalymnos."
Will you please investigate this situation and advise us what action should be taken.
Mr . Buell Maben Acting Chief UNRRA Greece .Mission
Yours faithfully,
