SOUTHWEST COAST TOWN.
England, Tuesday, April 29 (UP)
German bombers swept over this
town in relays for about four
hours last night and early to
day, bucking the heaviest anti
aircraft barrage heard here
throughout the war.
The defense fire seemed to
turn back many of the enemy
planes at the outer fringe of
the barrage. Nevertheless a
formidable number of raiders
broke through and poured many
thousands of incendiaries and
high explosives.
In the first quarter-hour of
the attack alone, it was estimat
ed at least 10,000 fire, bombs
tained on the town. They were
followed by oil bombs.
The raiders also used many
flares, as many as 30 floating
over an area at one time.
Tentative reports indicated
that the casualties and damage
would be fairly light in com
parison with the scope of the
attack.
The incendiaries and oil
bombs started several fires, the
majority of which were con
trolled quickly. )
Developing reports indicated
that the damage spread over a
considerable area.
