AIR RAID PRECAUTIONS
EXERCISES IN GERMANY INCONVENIENCE TO PEOPLE BERLIN, Sept. 15. Workmen with black curtains and paper to-day began preparing the windows of factories and offices for next week's air raid precautions. Berlin people are already criticising the inconvenience. Innkeepers and theatres complain that they will lose heavily when the city is plunged into darkness for five nights. Householders also resent the prospect of officials bundling them from their firesides to cellars. Shoppers will not'be allowed to return home when the alarms sound, but must dive into cellars. Berlin residents comment that the exercises are excessive unless Germany is expecting immediate war.
