AIRPLANES MAKE
SILENT RAIDS
COMING OF ZEPPELIN IN LONDON
NEVER AGAIN

London, Sept 80. Correspondence
of the Associated Press Ever since
the big Zeppelin night raid on London
October II, 1917, the public has be-
lieved that the Zeppelin commanders
stopped their engines and allowed the
eian craft to drift silently with the
wind across the city which was una
ware of the enemy's presence until
bombs were actually dropped.
But the facts now made known
we're that the apparent silence OF the
Zeppelin engines was due partly to
abnormal acoustical conditions, part
ly to the great ehight at whichthe ar
ships flew, in order to be above the
range of British anti-aircraft fire, and
partly because some of the engines
did stop-although not by any desire
of their engineers. The few engines
that stopped, prisoners have disclos-
ed, did so because the crews were too
Iheight-sick to operate them
Experts say that the abnormal au-
coustics of that night are not likely
to recur and there probaly will be no
return of the silent" Zeppelin. Air
planes, on the other hand are ca
pable of making silent decent upon
town, as was proved, it is pointed
out, by the raid of British machines
on Mannheim on the night of August
25. One pilot glided down to 200 feet
from an altitude of 5000. He was en-
ablcd to make a direct hit with every
bomb dropped and he circled around
for seven minutes, sweeping the Bad
isch poison gas factory and other
works, also searchlights with machine
gun fire and FINALLY got away scot
gree.
