SIX PLANES LOST
GERMAN ADMISSION NORTH SEA ATTACK (Reed Oct. 13, 11.30 a.m.) LONDON, Oct. 13.
The Admiralty announces that the German information service has now admitted that after the attack on British naval forces in the North Sea on Monday, four of their planes fell into the sea, and two made forced landings on Danish territory.
A Copenhagen message says that four German airmen landed from a Danish steamer after being picked up in the North Sea. They explained that they made a forced landing after being “damaged.” They now ask to be released, because they were rescued outside territorial waters.
