AIR RAID REPRISALS
Allies Will Not Pay Heed to Their
Whmnpering Note Asking
Attacks be Stopped
By As.ocisted Press 70 Every Evening


Washington, Nov , Action of the
German military forces in the past in
conducting air raids on defenseless towns
in France, Belgium, England and on
hospitals preclude in the opinion Of
military and diplomatic observers here
the giving Of any serious attention TO the
protest from Berlin against the aerial
operations of the allied and American
armies.
The plea for cessation Of the raids on
German towns, delivered 10 the State De-
partment yesterday through the Swiss
legation, declares that since October | +,
German air forces have been under orders
to operate only against military objects
In view Of these instructions, disclosed
through the note for the first time to the
Allied and the United States, the Ger
man government saws il has assumed that
similar orders would be issued by its op-
moments Should such directions not be
issued. the German government declares
il reserves the right to renew its aerial
attacks on allied territory behind tie
lines
The long list Of German bombing raids
on towns outside the zone of operations
and on hospitals WAS pointed TO today as
justifying continuance by the allied and
American forces of operations against
the non-miIitary obiectives IN Germany
That Germany's protest was made too
late was the general belief in many
