Macedonia is divided among Greece, Bulgaria and Yugoslavia. The Cominform plan calls for the several parts to be united in a separate "free" Macedonian state (see map).

In effect, the U.S. and Canada were joining themselves to the others, who had already formed a Western Union under the Brussels Treaty (TIME, March 15 et seq.) and picked Field Marshal Viscount Montgomery to mastermind their joint defenses.
