POWERFUL BOMBS
DEADLY EFFECT ON MORALE OF BERLINERS. SHELTERS AS DEATH TRAPS. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) LONDON, April 21.

The traveller says that officials and the population were non-plussed by the violence of the attack. The A.R.P. organisation was unable to cope with the situation. Basement shelters became death-traps, collapsing and burying those taking refuge.
