Belgium Protests
Telling Of Two
Planes by Nazis
Air Bottle Is Termed
Neutrality Breach and
Act Of Aggression
BY the Associat ted Press.

BRUSSELS, March 1.-TWO Bel
gian army planes were shot down
over their homeland today in a
clash with German bomber which
the government quickly protested to
Berlin as grave violation of Bel
gian neutrality and an act OF
aggression.
One Belgian pilot was killed and
another wounded in the clash.
The incident, announced In . COM
munique. was followed swiftly by a
series OF unrelated accidents in
which four other Belgian planes
Grained AND one pilot WAS killed,
making the day the worst In the
nations aviation history.
Within q short time after the
issuance of the communique, Ger
man Ambassador Vicco Karl Won
Buelow-Schwante, obviously dis
turbed, hastened to the Belgian
Foreign ONCE.
With Spaak 10 Minutes.
He was kept waiting As minutes
before he was admitted to Foreign
Minister Paul Henri Spaak. He was
with Spaak for about 10 minutes,
and after his departure the govern
ment announced a vigorous" pro-
test had been registered.
The official Belgian version said
three Belgian planes were involved
in the encounter with the German
plane, a large Dornier bomber, over
Saint Hubert in Belgium's Luxem-
bourg province.
The Belgians surrounded the craft,
which then opened fire upon them,
it was said.
The leader Of the Belgian squad
ron, Sub-Lt. Hernard. was killed
when he was struck by a burst of
fire and his plane crashed near
the village Of Hemroulle.
A few minutes later, another of
the Belgian planes was forced down
at Achene with bullet holes in the
gas tank, but the pilot was unin-
jured. The pilot Of the third place
was wounded.
Planes Collide Near Antwerp.
Another flyer was killed SUBJ
sequently when two Belgian army
planes collided near Antwerp. Two
other Belgian military planes were
reported to have cracked up near
Antwerp and at Bierzet, but the
flyers escaped injury.
The clash of the Belgian planes
and the German Dornier was the
first such incident since the start
Of the European war, although
Belgian patrols frequently have
gone aloft to drive off belligerent
craft flying over their territory.
Belgian anti-aircraft batteries also
have fired sat belligerent planes,
driving them across the border, but
no hits have been reported.
The Belgian government has re-
peatedly warned belligerent ma
tions against violation of her, neu-
trality. She has sent ct least II
protests to Berlin concerning the
reported appearance Of German
aircraft over Belgian territory, and
has sent at least four such pro-
tests to London.
