HIDEOUS CAMPAIGN.
NAZI LACK OF DECENCY.
i“THE BARRAGE ORCHESTRA.”
LONDON, September 25
The 19th successive air raid “alert” sounded in London on Wednesday, and Londoners resigned themselves to the orchestra of the heavy British anti-air-craft barrage, punctuated by the crash of humble homes bit by bombs dropped indiscriminately from German planes. This bombing seemed even more senseless and criminal than on Tuesday night, when several more hospitals were hit and citizens of the metropolis, who are proverbially kindly natured and little prone to anger, are now growing indignant at the lack of any pretence of decency on. the part of the Germans in their hideous campaign against civilian populations. The Germans do not realise, according to neutral observers, that instead of producing horror among Londoners they are making them extremely angry, and “when Londoners are really angry” said a neutral observer, “they are a tougher proposition than the Germans can deal with.”
