HEAVY
RAIDS
RESUMED
LONDON
Birmingham
was
subjected
to
another
heavy
raid
by
Nail
bombing
planes
last
night.
Anti-aircraft
fire
kept
the
Herman
plane,
so
high
that
they
had
to
drop
their
bombs
indiscriminate
of
targets.
Six
churches,
eleven
schools
and
two
moving
picture
theatres
were
among
the
buildings
struck.
While
there
was
considerable
damage,
casualties
were
not
regarded
as
heavy
considering
the
Intensity
of
the
attack.
London
was
kept
under
alarm
for
fourteen
hours
during
the
night,
the
most
intense
part
of
the
attack
being
the
first
hour,
the
bombing
Uter
becoming
of
desultory
character.
The
German
raids
were
widespread
over
northwest
and
southwest
England,
the
Midlands,
East
Anglia
and
Wales.

a
power
station
at
Mannheim
Germany,
the
main
objective
of
last
night's
raids
on
Germany.
Fire
broke
out
and
was
ttill
raging
when
the
last
planes
turned
homeward.
The
Royal
Air

also
bombed
tfurazzo
and

A
prominent
Italian
editor
places
the
blame
for
(be
failure
of
the
Italian
campaign
against
Greece
squarely
on
the
shoulders
of
Marshal
Badoglio
who
was
asked
for
his
resignation
as
Italian
chief
of

There
is
serious
diseord
In
