Begins 10 Lift After
Three Choking Days
BY the Associoted Press

LONDON, Dec. London's
great fog-worst in the city's long
history-began to lift today and
the grimy Britons got their first
peek at the sun in four days.
The thick murk, laden with tons
of choking SCOT. started to clear
soon after dawn.
For the Londoners it was like
the end of a nightmarisll black
out-one longer than any Hitler
ever inflicted on them.
For the past three days trans
portation has been all but para
lyzed. Some persons were killed
or injured in accidents, and the
underworld unleashed new
crime wave.
Food Supplies Threatened.
The transport tieup blocked
milk supplies into the city. and a
critical shortage threatened. An
other day of the muck and other
food supplies might have run
short.
But By 10 am. today London's
buses, subWays, taXis and motor
cars were running at nearly nor
NAL pace again, and the Monday
mid-morning rush hour went off
without serious hitch. Milk and
other food supplies flowed into
the city normally. and shipping
in the Thames River began to
untangle.
A heavy haze still hung over
many parts of the city and its
outskirts. however, and operators
of London's two big airports
awaited the signal for resuming
takeoffs and landings.
First reports on the smog'sI
crime wave listed dozens of burg
laries. One robber climbed 60I
feet up the outside of a fashion,
able Hyde Park apartment build
ing to steal $4,000 worth of furs
and jewels from third-f1oor fiat.

punched him in the face. robbed
him of his wrist watch and some
American dollars and escaped.
Cattle at Show Slaughtered.
In the vast Earl's Court audi
torium, where the annual Smith,
field livestock show was underway,
two prize cattle choked to DEATH
and four others were Slaughtered
to put them out of their misery.
Penicillin and whisky were given
to dozens of other suffering ami
mails.
The British Automobile Associ-I
alton said it had never seen worse
weather. Hotels were jammed over
the week end by scores of persons
unable to leave the city for their
outlying homes.
Ambulances and fire trucks
craWled to answer emergency calls
behind walking guides who stag
gered ahead carrying blazing
torches.
Squad cars Of police we're use
less. In one instance the police
rushed to answer a call on
bicycles.

IS miles south of London in bright
sunshine.
With lights burning through the
