AIR TERRORISM
BOMBING OF CIVILIANS IN POLAND GERMANY INDICTED. AMERICAN AMBASSADOR’S TESTIMONY. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright LONDON, September 25. The Paris correspondent of “The Tinies” says that the American Ambassador to Poland. Mr A. Biddle, has arrived. He declared that in Hie latter stages of the struggle the whole action of the German aircraft, of which he estimated 5000 were employed, was designed to terrorise the civilian population. At first the German planes concentrated on bombing aerodromes, aircraft factories and military camps, he said. Afterward, they swept over the whole country working in two shifts. “It seemed impossible to get away from them,” he commented. “My own car was bombed 15 times and machinegunned four times en route to the Rumanian frontier, despite a prominently painted U.S.A, on the roof. I was forced to take refuge in a road side ditch.”
