Why four bombing raids hurt only four people

Barcelona,

An effective defence system agafustj air bombardment line momentarily discouraged raids on Darcelona. The city's principal defence weapons are now Ave:-

1. Prompt alarms which give elilzens time to reach bomb shelters;

2. Numerous fugest

and well-built

3. Suffelent anti-aircraft guns to put up an effective curtain bar-

rage:

4. Powerful searchlights for night

ralds; and

3. A sadron of chasers to attacki

the raiders,

Various combinations of these weapons give effective protection against both day and night ruids.

The police description of Kuns put up an effective barrage, keeping the planes off the city till hair, dressed entirely in black, and the Government chasers could attack, carrying an umbrella. At that moment insurgent bombers dropped their loads, either in the sen or on the outskirts of the town, and

fled.

At night the anti-aircraft gun were rarely used. Instead, dozensi of giant searchlight beams picked out the raiders, and held them blinded in a blaze of light until Government chasers, coming up in the dark, could attack.

Since the insurgents had two planes shot down over Barcelona int this manner some five weeks agoj they seldom raid at night.
