THE ZEPPELIN RAIDS.
1 DISCUSSION IN THE LORDS. (Reed. 8.55 p.m.) LONDON, October 20. In the House of Lords, Lord Ports- ' mouth said that he understood that the Admiralty had warning of Zeppelins and he suggested that the public should be warned. t Baron Sydenham said that he. opined . that there was much random shooting. i If the gunners had been taken from , the trenches where they daily prac- , tised against aircraft the results would have been different. The ot)_ jeet was to prevent the Zeppelinists shelling the targets. It would be use- . loss and dangerous to keep our airt craft from cruising overhead. They . could only wreck the Zeppelins by bombing. Fighting of this description overhead of - London would involve great danger. The aeroplanes ' best chance was to find the Zeppelins approaching the coast before nightfall.
