JUDGE WHO CARRIED ON"
One of the outstanding features of tho raid on London on June 13 was tho absolute lack of panic. At ono London County Court the Judge was giving a decision when the first" sounds. of tho raid wero heard. The booming grew in intensity, until eventually it sounded as if a bomb must have dropped in the precincts of the court. The Judge, in a steady and clear voice, went on: “In this contract the plaintiffs have undertaken certain obligations— (boom)—which they contend have been carried out.” Another boom, louder than ever, followed, but His Honor went on and finished his judgment quite unconcernedly.
