I The official report issued by Field
! Marshal French follows:
j "Hostile aeroplanes attacked the
| southeast coast of England this eve
' ning. The raiders were reported from
various points along the const In
! Suffolk, Essex and Kent.
"The majority of the raiders did
not venture far inland. A few of
j them headed toward iAindon, but
| failed to reach the metropolis,
j "Bombs w.ere dropped in Suffolk,
i Essex and Kent, but no reports re

From the first telegrams received
L from the coast, the features of the
j utr raid seemed to have been the in
[ tense volume of the defensive gunfire
j und the speediness of the repulse of
j the raiders. One dispatch says there
| was a tremendous roar of guns all
I along the Thames estuary. The num

regular curtain fire. British airplanes
also went up after the raiders and
there was considerable air ngiiting.
Three 9qnalron
A telegram from Kent says that
three squadrons successfully crossed
the coast, fiying well below thick
black clouds which .obscured the
nearly full moon. The Invaders met
with a hot reception from the anti
aircraft guns. Nevertheless, the first
section managed to elude the shells
and steered In the direction of ,
whence loud explosions of bombs
were soon heard. The second squad
ron also passed the gunfire in the
same direction. The third squadron
is believed to have been driven sea
ward. The telegram adds that bombs
were dropped at two places.
Another dispatch describes a small
squadron of raiders as going toward
London and returning apparently one
by one. A telegram from Essex says
that two bombs were dropped in that
direction.

cording to Highway Commissioner
O'Neil, who has been planning; the
forming of these special forces.
Owing to the heavy traflic from

business the commissioner is plan
ning to keep roads as free from
snow as possible. According to re
ports which have come to the Cap

winter care of state roads. Machin
ery Is being listed so it will l>e (
available to handle heavy snows on
these main roads.
Under the plan the men best
adapted for heavy work and who are
skilled in repairs and in road-mak
ing will be placed in districts and
subject to call. Many of these men
are now engaged In other districts
than their own helping reconstruct
or repair certain stretches of road
much used for through traffic due
to the war orders and demands.
