FALSE ALARM
"BOMBS" AT WORLD'S FAIR
NEW YORK, July 6.
A bomb squad rushed to the World's Fair to examine two packages, one of which was found in the British pavilion and the other in the League of Nations building. Both were taken to the scene of Thursday's blast. A space of 150 yards was roped off and the ambulance was called, whereupon it was discovered that one package was empty and the other was filled with scrap wool. The package in the British pavilion bore a note: "Please open and deliver to the address inside. Danke Schoen."
