English Coast Towns Are
Bombarded From Clouds
by German Air Raiders
By Associated Press
London, May 26. Four or five
German airships raided the eastern
counties of England last night, ac
cording to an official statement issued
this morning. The airships dropped
bombs and escaped although pur
sued.
The official statement says:
"Four or five hostile airships ap
proached East Anglia shortly before
midnight last night. The weather
was overcast and a thick back of
rain clouds made observation diffi
cult.
"Four airships appear to have
pentrated inlund into the eastern !
counties. They followed erratic
courses and dropped a number of
bombs in country districts, apparent
ly being unable to locate their posi- ,
tion. The raiders were pursued by j
our airplanes, but thick clouds en- i
abled them to make good their es
cape. One man was killed in a Nor
folk village. The material damage
is believed to be negligible.
Germany Disappointed
at Russia's New Stand
By Associated Press
Amsterdam, May 25. The So
cialist newspaper Vorwaerts of Ber
lin says that (he recent statements of ■
Premier Lvoff and Foreign Minister 1
Teresclitenko, of Russia, expressing
determination to continue tbe war
with the country's allies, are a great
disappointment to those in Germany 1
who expected a separate peace quick
ly with revolutionary Russia. The ,
Vorwaerts says Germany's policy is
not dictated by the pan-Germans and
that the statements of the Russian
ministers would never have been
made had Chancellor Von Bethmann
Hollweg replied fully and satisfac
torily to the interpellation of the So
cial Democrats regarding war aims
and said that the desires of Austria
and Russia were also those of the
German government.
The Kreuz Zeitung considers the |
statements of the Russian ministers .
to be the first success of British
policy in the new situation and a
demonstration of the fact that '
"politically time is not on our side." j

as was indicated to-day, re
port a new censorship section, the j
House will first debate and vote upon
