October 1948

Pamphlets are spread throughout Makedonia, Epirus and Attica, all bearing the same call to action to the brave workers of Greece.

Comrades!

Your condition as free men is in danger. Greece is invaded by the tyrants of all humanity, who want to make her into a puppet controlled by fascists.

All have decided to defend our future. All have decided never to tolerate this civilization of whip and axe on the neck of the workers.

We must be generous in the use of force. remembering the saying of the teacher Karl Marx: "The emancipation of the workers is the work of those same workers".

Rise up Hellenes! Rise up Workers! Rise and fight for the children kidnapped by the Nazi Queen.

Comrade Zachariadis calls for all true men of Greece to fight for her!

The KKE attempts to bolster its standing force by calling for volunteers amongst its support network of 2 million followers.
