THROUGH GERMAN EYES.
ZEPPELIN RAIDS.
A Reply to the Times."
The German Press has now be gou to work up a 950 in justifi- ostion of Zeppelin attacks on London-what the Berlin outres. pondent of the Cologne Gazelle describes as "the nightly visite of German airship over the City of London, to which England must submit helplessly, because ao mesaure of prevention can protect her against the auc- comaful attack, conducted with endless technical superiority.'
"
Most of the papers seize upon (and mistranslate) the following passage from the leading article in the Times of September 10:-
When snatchiata throw bomb. among a civilisu crowd, the only result is a determination to sap- press the anarchists. And that is the only result of the German practice of anarchiam in war. They are to the English people now an anarchist nation that must be suppressed.
The Berlin Lokalanzeiger publi- shed on Saturday the following semi-official remarks, under the beading "Hypocritical Indigna- tion":
The English Presa has been put into sach a rage by the attacks of our airships that its language It deolarae passes all messure. the bombardment of London to be an anarchiat act, and demands the extermination (Anstilgung) -the nation which has com- mitted the orimo, caying When Anarchists thro bombs amongst a civilian crowd, the only result is a determination utterly to destroy (auszurotten) the au- archists, and this is the result o the German susrohism."
