Attempt To Demolish PRISONERS More Emigrants
Air-Raid
Shelter
Berlin, Oct. 17.
A new attempt is to be made to demolish Gustav, Berlin's giant air-raid shelter, which was once written off as an indestructible relic of the war.
Allied bombers, British Army engineers and Berlin workmen have all failed to flatten the colossal structure, which could shelter 30,000 people at a time. But now post-war planning requires its destruction.
