Nazis Claim to Have Spared St, Paul’s—The Nazis are claiming that it was the Luftwaffe that spared St. Paul’s Cathedral, and that this building now stood as a monument to the principles of the Luftwaffe. It is pointed out in London that St. Paul’s was actuall hit three times and that damage amounting to £150,000 was done. One large time-bomb dropped close by the tower, and the reason this did not explode was not the consideration of the Luftwaffe bu'. because it was dug out by a bomb disposal squad,—London, September 22. Mr J. R. BucTianar* presided and mentioned the satisfactory state of the club’s accounts, which showed a credit balance of £22. It was decided to hold the club s opening day on the last Saturday of October and to hold a carnival In February.
