Abstract
Στην ΔεÏÏνεια Ï€ÏοσωπιδοφόÏοι μπήκαν σε σπίτια και δεξιών και αÏιστεÏών, και κατÎστÏεψαν εμπόÏευμα αÏιστεÏών μαγαζιών. Σε Îνα άλλο σπίτι μπήκαν και κατÎστÏεψαν Αγγλική σκόνη πλυσίματος, ενώ τον είχαν Ï€Ïοειδοποιήσει και το Ï€ÏοηγοÏμενο βÏάδυ να μην αγοÏάσει πάλι Αγγλικά, αλλά ΚυπÏιακή σκόνη πλυσίματος. Αφότου Îφυγαν οι Ï€ÏοσωπιδοφόÏοι διαπληκτίστηκαν με αÏιστεÏοÏÏ‚, οι οποίοι και Ï€ÏοξÎνησαν ζημιÎÏ‚ στις νÎες εθνικόφÏονες συντεχνίες. Ωστόσο, το φταίξιμο, σÏμφωνα με την εφημεÏίδα, ήταν των αÏιστεÏών, ÎµÎ¾Î¿Ï ÎºÎ±Î¹ ο τίτλος της εφημεÏίδα, όπως επίσης, και κατηγοÏοÏνται ότι είναι εχθÏοί των κυπÏιακών Ï€Ïοϊόντων
In Dherynia EOKA fighters entered the houses of both right-wing and left-wing supporters, and they ruined the merchandise of left shops, because it was British. On another house they entered and destroyed the washing powder because it was British, despite the fact that the previous night the EOKA fighters had warned the owner of the house not to buy British but Cypriot washing powder again. After the EOKA fighters left they clashed with some leftists, and the latter caused damages in the new right-wing trade-unions. However, according to the newspaper, the leftists are to blame, hence the title of the article, and also the leftists are accused for being enemies of the Cypriot products.
