“ The Daily Mail, in an editorial commenting on last night’s air raid, calls for reprisals, saying:
“The British people would view these attacks with entire indifference if they knew that every one of them was followed by an attack in which twice the weight of bombs dropped here was showered on German towns. Let’s hit the Germans; hit them hard.”
BERLIN, Sept. 25, (via London.) —Official announcement was made today as follows:
Last night our aviators attacked England. Bombs were dropped on military buildings and warehouses in the heart of London, and on Dover, Southend, Chathan, and Sheerness. ”

“ Result of Monday’s Raid. Fifteen persons were killed and seventy injured in last night’s air raid over London.
The following official report was given out by Lord French, commander of the home defenses:
Airplane Raid.—The latest reports concerning last night’s airplane raid show that the group of raiders which approached London was driven off by the fire of anti-aircraft guns. Only one or at the most two machines penetrated the defenses. The casualties in all the raided districts, reported by the police up to the present, are: Killed, 15; Injured, 70. The material damage was not great. ”

“ It is safe to say, however, that at least three-fourths and probably four-fifths of the casualties were suffered by persons who had failed to take cover or persisted out of curiosity in watching the overhead spectacle from the inadequate shelter of balconies or doorways. ”
