LONDON, July 24.--"Enemy" air
raiders who swooped over London last
night claimed today to have broken
through aerial defences and won a
smashing victory.
The attackers reported they sue
cessfully bombed seven parts of the
city, wrecked the air ministry and
wrought havoc at docks and other key
points.
Defenders, on the other hand,
claimed TO have taken big toll of
the invaders but the full result OF
the nights combats will not be known
until an oficial report Is made.
The mock raids, opposition parties
charged, served as good propaganda
Tor the governments bigger air force
plans.
Lord Ponsonby, opposition leader In
the House of Lords, said the maneu-
vers were ''officially arranged" at the
time the house was debating the air
force program.
Residents of London and the entire
Southeastern part of England were
thrilled by the raids and carried back
TO the grim days of the World War.
Sleepers were awakened by the dron-
ings OF countless machines high over
head.
