BOMBING OF TOWN
STATEMENT IN COMMONS (Official Wireless) RUGBY, Sept. 27 Replying to a question in the House of Commons as to whether a statement could be made regarding the bombing of the Polish town of Kruzzemieniec by German aircraft on September 15, and the action of the diplomatic corps, led by the Papal Nuncio in asking their Governments to protest to Berlin, Mr R. A. Butler, Parliamentary Undersecretary for Foreign Affairs, said: *‘His Majesty’s ambassador was at one period a resident of the town in question, and reports that it was deliberately bombed, with many casualties, on September 12. It then contained only the headquarters of the Polish Ministry for Foreign Affairs and the Corps Diplomatique, there being / o military objectives. I assume this is the occasion to which the member is referring.”
