Phone Warning of Bomb Explosions Disregarded
LONDON, Dec. 17. More bomb warnings have been reeeived in London but they are now not being taken very seriously. Scotland Yard, working o-n the assumption that the telephoned warnings of bombs are the work of a hoaxer, has laid plans to trap him or them. The Evening News suggests that "everybody is doing it- now." The London Transport Board received a warning telephoned from Mitcham, Surrey, that Paddingtcn Station was to be blown up. The telephone caller is now described as "the nuisance." Police made thorough searches at Stoclcwell tube station, London, and a London restaurant after they received two more telephone calls from "the gruff voiced man" warning that buildings were about to he Mown up. . The police have received dozens of warnings since Friday night. They searched the building named on each occasion, but* found nothing.
