Conditions In war-time Bri
tain were vividly described in a
letter written by Dr. Irvln Evans
of Ferensway House, Hull, Eng
land, nephew of Mrs. Eva Evans
Anderson of 1501 West Main
street.
The doctor wrote the letter to
Mrs. Anderson's brother. M. O.
Evans of Los Angeles, and he
forwarded a copy to Mrs: Ander
son. Dr. Evans, a son of Mrs.
Anderson's oldest brother, the
late Frank Evans, studied medi
cine in Germany and under
stands the German language so
that he can listen in on the Nail
radio broadcasting. His letter,
written July 26, follows:
"I'm afraid that the news
papers and potential possibilities
of things make you think that
we are having a rough time of
it. Actually life goes on about
the same as usual. The shops are
well stocked and except for the
multitude of soldiers and sailors
on the streets and the air raid
shelters you would not know
there was a war on.
No Accuracy
"Of course the air raid pre
cautions are a nuisance but we
are used to them now. If you
could imagine Los Angeles pitch
dark at night without a single
light showing you might have
some idea of a black-out. It is
wierd at first but now we think
nothing about it. It is a business
fixing the curtains so that no
light shows outside. You are
fined if the least light shows.
Now we are all busy putting
stuff on windows to keep them
from flying to bits with concus
sion. Some paint them with a
cellulose stuff, others use strips
of adhesive tape. Motorcars must
have their bumpers and running j
boards painted white, the rear !
light toned down and special j
mask fitted to the head lamp.
Every time you stop the car you
must lock all the doors. If you
cannot do that you must remove
the distributor rotor arm.
"If you neglect these precau
tions, the police deflate the tires.
"At no place where the Ger
mans have bombed England
have they shown any degree of
accuracy at all. Most of their
bombs have fallen on waste
ground and by far what damage
has been done has been on pri
vate dwellings.
I "Night before last four bombs
were dropped here, one of which

as the alarm went and she was
getting 'into bed. The house was
completely shattered but no one
was hurt. The bomber was ap
parently aiming for the water
works but they were a quarter
of a mile away.
"I was talking with a friend
who goes all over England on
special business and sees much
of what is going on in the way
of war effort and he says it is
almost breath-taking the huge
ness of the new factories which I
are going up ana many aireaay
in production. Of course they
are well tucked away but he
says it is a most heartening
sight. He was through the last I
war, to he has experience to
draw on and it not in the least
down-hearted.
British Confident
"No one seems to have any
idea at to what will happen
next. We are all confident, how-1
ever, that things are working
our way. The forces of evil
eventually prove their own un
doing and he (Hitler) will be no
exception. That, of course, may
be wishful thinking but in any
case, we are all going out to pre
pare plenty of such forces of evil
as we can think up for hit enter
tainment.
"You have no doubt read of
the continuous raids of the royal
air force on Germany and Ger
man bases. It is because of this
that invasion has been impossi
ble as he had planned. The de
struction we have caused on his
shipping and oil bases and fac
tories of all kinds is terrific and
we are keeping it up. We are all
deeply conscious that this is
possible only through the gener
ous and whole-hearted help from
the States.
"Yesterday the admiralty an
nounced the loss of five small
craft totaling 3.000 tons. This
same incident was reported on
the German radio at a major
British disaster with a loss of
40.000 tons and another 20.000
badly damaged. As you know, I
listen to the German side-show
barking and the bilge they pour
out is terrific. How their own
people can stomach it is beyond
comprehension. But they do.
Airmen we capture are para
lyzed with fear at first that we
will cut their throats, etc., and
when they find us human and
sympathetic they can hardly be
lieve it. By the way most of
those captured are mere youths
of 17 and 18."
