Beginning with the German raid on
the municipal area of London. May 81,
in which four persons wer- killed, the
past sixteen days have brought reports
of a number of aerial attacks by both
sides, all of which indicate a deter
mination to force the fighting from
the clouds.
An air attack by the birdmen of one
side has been followed so closely by a
counter attack from the other, al
though on different locality, that re-
taliation is strongly indicated. For
instance. yesterday morning twenty
three aeroplanes delivered an attack
upon the German city of Karlsruhe,
killing nineteen persons and wounding
fourteen. and inflicting material dam
age. The raid on England mentioned
in the foregoing dispatch follows this
onslaught within twenty-four hours.

ments of the past two weeks. over the
continent and England are as follows:
Aeroplanes of the allies attacked the
